3455.0. "Does DRAS comes with DNAS V2.0?" by 22620::KENNETH () Wed Mar 05 1997 23:12

Hi,

After reading the DECserver Network Access Software V2.0 SPD, I would like
to ask some questions here in order to clarify my confusions.

1) Does DECserver Network Access Software V2.0 includes DRAS V1.0?
   That is if my customer buy DNAS V2.0, there is no need to buy DRAS V1.0
   software?

2) From the DNAS V2.0 SPD, it mentions "One copy of DRAS V1.0 is included
   with DECserver remote access servers."  My customer has several DECserver
   900TM, is that mean he just buy DNAS V2.0 and no need to buy DRAS V1.0?
   If yes, which DECserver Models will also include it?

3) " Some DECserver units may ship with a companion RADIUS server; Digi-
    tal Remote Access Security V1.0 (DRAS). DNAS V2.0 and DRAS V1.0 to-
    gether provide a complete solution for RADIUS based accounting."
  
   May I know which servers?

Thanks for your help in advance

No.

If the customer needs to buy DNAS, then he needs to buy DRAS.  See below.
Note: We are contemplating changing this scheme with DNAS V2.2, such that
DRAS would be on the same CR-ROM as DNAS.  Stay tuned on this issue....

Since DNAS V2.0 was introduced, we have included both DNAS V2.0 and DRAS V1.0
in the box with all DECservers.  Buy a new DECserver, get the software free.
If you already own DECservers, you will need to purchase DNAS upgrades and
purchase DRAS.

As stated above, all currently shipping DECservers: DS90M, DS900TM, DS900GM, 
DS700-08, DS700-16.
