Anyone know if it is possible to configure an Ultrix machine (VAX or RISC) running DECnet as a level 2 (area) router? The SPD says that DECnet/Ultrix is end-node only, but I wonder if the s/w really IS end-node only. Thanks, Steve Thompson Cornell School of Chemical Engineering thompson@cheme.tn.cornell.edu
