About the Data Collector AM:
- is it also available under DECmcc/Ultrix V1.2 ?
- can a foreign (i.e. non-DEC) system send events to this AM ?
Thanks in advance,
Michel

Eric is correct. The only transport that is available for V1.2
is DNA. Future versions will support TCP as a transport mechanism.
We will also accept any help from the field organizations to
develop libraries for various transports on particular platforms.
For example, DECmcc will provide the library for VMS and Ultrix
using DNA transport. We would welcome a field developed library
for DECnet DOS, DECnet on OS2, and DECnet Mac. If someone has
a need for a library using DNA transport which is supported on
some other platform (ie. Unix System V), we would welcome that
addition to our product but will utilize our resources to provide
additional transports ends at the DECmcc end.
Our priorities are TCP, Simple Asynch, OSI CMIP, RPC.

Wally,
In fact TCP-IP is what we need (the foreign system is Data General).
We would need it for Summertime 1992-- the EIS persons of the account
team could implement it possibly or they could wait if it comes before next
summer. Another alternative seems to be to build/use a TCP<->DNA
gateway.
Any comment/feedback/help is welcome...
