If I can, how? If I can't, what else do I need?

1566.1 | No RFC877 Support Presently Available | XDELTA::HOFFMAN | Steve, OpenVMS Engineering | Tue Feb 11 1997 14:42 | 14 |
DECnet-Plus (formerly DECnet-OSI) supports operations over X.25, with additional functions available with optional X.25 software. See SPD SPD 50.45.xx, SPD 25.03.xx, 47.37.xx, and 36.05.xx, among others. (The first two are the DECnet-Plus SPDs for OpenVMS Alpha and OpenVMS VAX, respectively.) I am not aware of a way to run Digital TCP/IP Services (UCX) over an X.25 transport, per RFC877 or similar. Various gateways do support X.25 connections and permitting IP access on the `LAN side', and these gateways are effectively transparent to IP packages. |
