736.0. "router with X25-da and Lan phase IV node" by PRSSOS::CARRAYROU () Fri Jan 31 1997 11:57

    
    Please could you confirm the support of this configuration
    
    can i use the kind of configuration 
    
              node phase V with IV compatible address

    OSI enable on Ethernet , X25 L2 only 
    Oecnet IV disable   ???? how can i send and receive the Phase IV Hello  
    
    I show in a configuration file 
    
    OSI config>exit
    ;
    ;You must shutdown DECnet Phase IV in order for you to set the router's
    network
    ;address to a pure OSI format such as the X.121 format.

736.1	More info?	MARVIN::WALTER	`Fri Jan 31 1997 12:18`	3
	Can you please include more of your OSI config here? In particular, Area Address, System Id and Phase IV prefix?
736.2	we need a theorical answer	ATYISA::CARRAYROU	`Wed Feb 05 1997 03:56`	14
	Walter I must call my customer for more info , but we want a general answer. I want to know if a pure phase IV node ( ex: a PC ) can access a VAX phase V with Phase IV compatible address over X25 using 2 ra90 with X25-DA between to different area ? Regards Didier

Didier Yes this should work as long as the Phase IV nodes are end-nodes. It is necessary to define the Phase IV EXECUTOR and (Ethernet) CIRCUIT as "ON", using NCP or Quick Config. The error message you describe in note .0 occurs if you use a none Phase IV compatible address (NET) when configuring OSI.
