First question: I believe DECmcc BMS can manage DECnet nodes across areas. For example, the management station with area 22, it can manage nodes with area 24 or 28. Then comparing with DECnet Monitor, what is missing? Second question: With DECmcc BMS, I can manage a Ultrix node, on the same area, through SNMP AM. Am I right, if I want to manage a Ultrix node on different area using SNMP, there should be an "IP router" in between the areas. Is Internet Portal the only solution for now? Thanks, Susan

RE .0 >Am I right, if I want to manage a Ultrix node on different area using SNMP, >there should be an "IP router" in between the areas. If by areas you mean sub-networks, then the answer is yes, you are correct, you need an IP router between sub-nets. >Is Internet Portal the only solution for now? Not sure if it's the only solution, but it is one solution. Dan | |||||

>Is Internet Portal the only solution for now? Are you trying to manage two disconnected IP subnets, that are connected by DECnet? If so, then the portal solution makes sense. If you are talking about pure IP connectivity between IP subnets, then there are any number of possible IP routers. You could, for instance, use a system running ULTRIX. Or use dedicated IP routing hardware (not DEC). -- Erik | |||||
