[HECnet] Hecnet and DDCMP

[Brian Hechinger]

I've never actually done it and it's been forever since I've looked into it but I seem to remember being able to tunnel a raw serial connection. The AUX port of one router is connected to the AUX port of another router (for example) and then you just connect your serial devices that way.

I could be completely wrong, however. :)

I don't think cisco supports DDCMP, only HDLC for this...I looked into it.   I hope I am wrong though.

Johnny, do you still have a copy of the serial version of your bridge program?

Alternatively I believe you can tunnel serial over IP with a pair of Cisco routers.

Nice!

Any documentation/software out there that will help me do this?   I have been looking around, and have seen some commentary about it, but nothing about how to get it accomplished.

Heh, we were just talking about that. That's how the original HECnet worked. :)

Hey guys,

Has anyone worked out a mechanism to connect a node to hecnet using DDCMP?   Perhaps some tunneling technology over IP, or virtualized serial?
