[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Dynamic routing support for Wollongong WIN/TCP

hassler@NAP1.ARPA (Barry D. Hassler) (02/08/88)

Is anyone aware of any dynamic routing programs for  Wollongong's
WIN/TCP  running  under  VAX/VMS?   According to Wollongong, they
will support something like the UNIX 'routed' (RIP  protocol)  in
release  3.2  (due  out  "in a couple of months"), but until that
time, I'm out of luck. We have  several  networks  with  multiple
redundant  gateways  and  LOTS  of VMS machines running  the Wol-
longong software. Unfortunately, right now these  machines  don't
have  any  way to fall back to alternate  routes should  one die.

Any leads anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Release 3.2, due in March or April will support GATED version 1.3.1.
It is currently being beta tested at several sites.  Once we feel the
version is solid it will be made available via anonymous ftp to host
twg.arpa.
