I have made some improvements to NICE on my user mode router, although
there is still quite a lot to do. It would be great if someone could try
a MC NCP TELL A5RTR SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS and let me know how it goes. If
you do try it please consider running a packet sniffer when you do in
case it fails as that would help me to diagnose the problem.

Why don't you log in to MIM, and try yourself?

Looks like someone tried and failed (from 8.403). If you want to try
again please use a packet sniffer and send me the data.

Thanks

I am back online now. SHOW ADJ NODES won   t work yet. You may fail to get
a connection for SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS, that is my next task to fix.

That was me.

I haven't touched that code in a while but I should go take a look at it
again. It used SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS and SHOW ADJ NODES.

Let me know when you're back online and I'll play with that some more.

      A while ago there was discussion of a program or DCL script that was
      automating the creation of a map of HECnet. It stumbled when it came
      to my user mode router because it did not implement NICE. Well, I
      have been doing some work to rectify that. The work is far from
      complete, but under the right circumstances and with a fair wind you
      can get A5RTR to tell you the output of SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS.

      Who was doing that work, and which commands needed to be supported
      for the program/script to work?

      NB A5RTR is not on HECnet at the moment because I have had a change
      of IP address and I am waiting for Johnny to tell his bridge to
      re-read its config.
