Hi All I am working on a government proposal and I need to ask a configuration question. Excuse me if it seems simple....I am not a networks person. 1) I have a requirement for PCM functionality. The target system is an AlphaServer 8400 5/300. 8 CPUs, 2 GB Memory. This is the only system that I need to manage. I was assuming the following: 8400----------------WHAT DEVICE-------------AlphaStation goes here???? 200 4/100 The 8400 will be managed by the Workstation (AS 200 4/100). How can I for the least amount of dollars connect the console port to this workstation? Do I need some DECserver device here? What is the minimum configuration I can have on the workstation? REalize that I need lowest possible cost. THANKS A BUNCH FOR ANY POINTERS... Lisa

Lisa, If all you are managing is one system and the system is not in close proximity, then yes, you will need a termianl server. You can get the 90tl which should be our lowest cost terminal server. (Actually, it's a server for a printer to be on the net). I assume that the system will ne running either VMS or Unix. Dave |
