[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] IBM's TCP-IP announcement..

percy@amdcad.AMD.COM (Percy Irani) (08/29/87)

Is there any one out there who has experience with the recent (!)
announcements by IBM regarding TCP-IP for VM/CMS, IBM-PC (using 8232). 
Any real users already? 

I attended a satellite presentation by IBM. It looks like 
Columbia University uses that. Any one from Columbia can 
comment?

Im specially intrested in things like 
	- speed
	- how close are they to standards :-)
	- how well does the product interface to things like the 
	  batch monitor to do remote batch submissions? etc...
	- Any monitoring capability (problem isolation?)
	- Can Sun make use of that for NFS etc...
	  i.e. can other products like NFS, Apollo's NCS etc
	  run with that? (may be this is a repeat of the standards
	  question I had earlier!)

Forum.... any comments?
