Hi,
I'm still writing my presentation about the DECnet-Plus features and it
would be very nice, if someone can tell me, if an DECnet-Plus system
with HBR enabled can act as a cluster alias router or if a separat
DECnet/OSI Router (DECnis ...) is needed.
The SPD says, that 'Clusters in a DECnet-Plus environment require a
reachable IS-IS compliant router on the LAN.' If I understand this correct,
therefore HBR cannot be used.
Many thanks in advance
Andreas

Hi,

Does this mean, that a DECnet-Plus HBR node can act as a cluster alias
router for different clusters on the LAN or just for his 'own' cluster
(like in Phase IV).
Many thanks for your help

DECnet-Plus HBR node can act as a Phase V router that is required on the
LAN to support DECnet-Plus cluster aliases just like other Phase V routers.
It can also be a member of a cluster alias like in Phase IV.
