[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] VAX/VMS and cisco AGS Gateways

EWR@SEED.AMS.COM (Betsy Ramsey) (01/12/88)

	The AMS has a cisco Systems AGS-1E1D Internet gateway (soft-
	ware version 6.1(1)) that connects our Ethernet local area
	network to the Arpanet over a DDN X.25 connection.  We're
	having problems getting our CMU/Tek TCP/IP software (V6.2) on
	our VAX/VMS (V4.6) systems to communicate successfully through
	the gateway.  Our TOPS-20 TCP/IP software does not have this
	problem.

	If you have a cisco Systems AGS gateway (any model) connected
	to your Ethernet, and you are running any brand of TCP/IP
	software on a VAX/VMS system, I'd appreciate hearing from you.

	In particular, I'd like to know the following:

	     o  What AGS model and software revision are you using?

	     o  What TCP/IP software and version are you running on
		your VMS system?

	     o  Are you having any problems with the combination of
		the two?

	My apologies to those users who are reading this message on
	more than one list.

We have a large number of VMS machines connected to the ARPANET using
CISCO gateways (ours is an 1822 DH interface).  The TCP software we
use is Wollengong WIN/TCP 3.something.  The CISCO version is somewhere
around 6.0 I suspect, but we've not had any problems even with CISCO
version 5 and the Wollongong Version 2 TCP.  Something is most likely
misconfigured.  You might try calling CISCO customer support.
