[mod.protocols.tcp-ip] IF-11Q/1822 Device Driver

JDELSIGNORE@F.BBN.COM.UUCP (05/19/86)

Does any out there have a device driver for an IF-11Q/1822?  The
IF-11Q/1822 sold by ACC is composed of an XQ/1822 board and an MDMA
board.  I'm planning on installing the boards in the QBUS of a
MicroVAX II running Ultrix.  The boards are setup to do Distant Host
to an ARPANET IMP.

Thanks, John DelSignore

I might mention that the combination of a Unibus LH-DH/11 and
an Able Qniverter for your MicroVAX would do quite nicely,
and will run 'out of the box' with the standard 4.2/Ultrix if_acc.c
driver.  This is especially attractive because no UNIBUS backplane
is needed, just a UNIBUS cable from the Qniverter into the LH/DH-11.
Perhaps it's not cost-effective for wholly new systems, but it's
a great way to avoid trashing newly obsoleted LH/DH-11's when your
VAX750's and VAX780's are upgraded to MicroVAX-II's.
