I'm not sure I understand the difference (i.e. I'm sure I don't understand the difference). What is "TCP/IP emulation software", as opposed to any other implementation of TCP/IP? Every implementation of TCP/IP that I know of (or could concieve of) is done is software. Sometimes the software is in ram and sometimes it's in rom, but it's still software. -- Roy Smith, System Administrator Public Health Research Institute {allegra,philabs,cmcl2,rutgers,hombre}!phri!roy -or- roy@phri.nyu.edu "The connector is the network"

We are currently investigating various sorts of TCP/IP terminal servers, and I am looking for people's experience/advice about the best available brands. We are in the market for 8-16 port servers initially, with expansion likely in the future, so expandable servers are an advantage. I currently have some information on the Emulex P4000 (16 and 32 port), and the Spiderport 6/10/16 port. Does anyone have any recommendations/suggestions? Please mail to me, and I will summarise to the net. -- Alan Judge, SysAdmin, Dept. of Maths, Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland. ajudge@maths.tcd.ie ajudge%maths.tcd.ie@cunyvm.cuny.edu a.k.a amjudge@cs.tcd.ie
