29.1TSM is MOP-based, _NOT_ SNMP-basedNOHOST::LEVINBryan, LENaC Engineering, MLO3-3/U39Thu Feb 20 1992 22:0210
    TSM can _NOT_ manage the whole family.  At best, it can manage the new
    telnet/lat terminal server.  Currently, I don't believe there's planned
    support for the 90L or 90L+ (I may be out of date on this, though).
    
    TSM connects via MOP console_carrier, so the management is provides is
    network bandwidth wasteful (MOP 'idles' the line WAY (!) too much), and
    non routable (cannot pass through routers, and is, therefore, no good
    on wan networks).

29.2TSM can handle 90L and 90L+EMDS::SEAVERLENAC Net Mgnt Mktg 223-4573Sat Feb 22 1992 18:004
    TSM can manage all the terminal servers that are in the DEChub.  EG 90L,
    90L+, 90TL.  The upgrade was made some time in Q2.  For the 90L and I
    think tht also includes the 90L+.  For more information on TSM contact
    Jim (TOOK::TOWNSEND).
