Hi.
	Does Digital Unix support routing protocols other than rip and
egp, say IRDP etc?

Thanks

Hi.
	The only routing protocols in the spd are rip and egp, but then the 
spd doesn't mention that http etc can be run either

Thanks

	That's because Digital UNIX does *not* support HTTP.
	The SPD is a legal document.  It has what's supported.

	You can run other software on top of Digital UNIX (like a
	http server, other routing protocols, etc), but that's
	a different question than what you asked in .0.

    In the latest SPD (v4.0B - haven't looked at prior ones lately)
    
    OSPF V2
    DVMRP (support via mrouted)
    
    are supported routine protocols.
