[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] TCP-IP on IBM mainframe

BENEDET@BLIULG11.BITNET ("F. Benedet") (06/22/88)

We are in the process of selecting products to connect (micro)VAX to
IBM mainframe on ETHERNET and TCP-IP.
The solutions which are distributed here in Belgium are(as far as I know)
    - IBM 8232
    - ITT 8940 (which in fact is the INTEL FASTPATH)
    - Spartacus-Fibronics K200
I suppose this has become a trivial question for most of you but I should
appreciate any comment, appreciation or experience on :
    - those products
    - the related software to be used on the IBM mainframe (VM/HPO)
    - the software to be used on the VAX systems (VMS)
    -opinion about the best way to provide 3270 simulation (in the VAX or
      in the IBM mainframe)
Thanks
