3565.0. "EXPORTING and REPORTING on DECnet/OSI routers" by GIDDAY::BROOKS () Fri Aug 14 1992 05:34

    I would like some advice from anyone who has tried and succeeded on 
    EXPORTING and REPORTING from any DECnet/OSI entities.
    
    My current configuration is a VAX4000-M60  (VMS V5.5-1)
    				  DECmcc 	V1.2.0
    				  DATATRIEVE   	V5.1
    				  CDD+		V4.3-2
    				  RDB		V4.0
    
    On a OSI network with DECNIS 500 routing IS-IS and IP on a X.25
    network.
    
    I have an MCC_EXPORTER_BACKGROUND running in batch with a parameter of
    SYS$LOGIN:EXPORT_ESWDR3_LINE.RDB
    
    I setup 3 exporting jobs in mcc using the following commands;
    
    MCC> EXPORT NODE ETSA_SERVICES_NS:.Adelaide.Eastwood.220.eswdr3 routing
    circuit * export target= SYS$LOGIN:EXPORT_ESWDR3_LINE.RDB
    MCC> EXPORT NODE ETSA_SERVICES_NS:.Adelaide.Eastwood.220.eswdr3 LAPB
    link * export target= SYS$LOGIN:EXPORT_ESWDR3_LINE.RDB
    MCC> EXPORT NODE ETSA_SERVICES_NS:.Adelaide.Eastwood.220.eswdr3
    export target= SYS$LOGIN:EXPORT_ESWDR3_LINE.RDB
    
    A show export <blah> displays that they are active. I have setup in
    Datatrieve a CDD dictionary and defined in login.com CDD$DEFAULT to 
    CDD$TOP.MCC$DICT. This logical is defined for batch processes in the
    process logical name table.
    
    The database name MCC_EXPORT has been defined to
    SYS$LOGIN:EXPORT_ESWDR3_LINE.RDB.
    
    I have executed the reports package MCC_REPORTS_FILES:MCC_RPTS and
    selected option 2 for phase v nodes and have executed a number of line
    and node reports. I managed to obtain some node information, but I 
    have come to a dead end on trying to obtain line traffic or error
    reports.
    
    A question when running line utilization is the circuit type
    	1) CSMACD
    	2) HDLC
    	3) DDCMP
    
    The Line/circuits I am trying to report on are X.25 circuits routing
    IS-IS(osi) and IP on a DECNIS 500, any ideas for line protocol?. I have
    tried all three and the DTR procedure returned an error like;
                                            
    :node5_csmacd_bandwidth_rpt

    What syntax is required to export correct line data for the MCC_RPTS
    command procedure. And will the line type be ?.
    
    
    Or will DECdecision be the go?
    
    Thanks (from a very confused person.)
