    I've a RFP requesting support for management protocol called
    CMOL / IEEE 802.1b.
    
    Any idea what CMOL is? Do we plan to support it ?

2492.1Cmip over ???TOOK::MATTHEWSThu Mar 05 1992 13:5914
    CMOL is CMIP over some ?? transport. It is something being pushed by
    IBM, Apple, and 3COM to replace the now defunct CMOT. I can't remember
    the details of what the transport level is? The OSF and Internet 
    community is pushing RFC 1006 CMIP which will be supported via OSAK
    by DEC. In other words it will be possible for any DEC proposed
    CMIP layer to use OSAK to get an RFC CMIP implementation. 
    
    I would suggest getting details from the customer on the exact
    layering.
    If you are going to propose a project implementation, assume that
    DECmcc will give you a CMIP layer and you can interface it to
    whatever is required for the lower stack elements.
