Oh, I never expect NICE to make it into IOS. Especially at this point.
It was just a dream :)

It would be nice, but yeah. That will not happen.

Have we determined if SNMP works over DECnet?

I have a very hard time imagining this. SNMP does not have a known object in DECnet, so you'd have to go with a named object. But that still requires that the SNMP server would know how to speak DECnet. Not likely for the Cisco, since they don't even do NICE.

    Hmm.   Well, adding NICE to IOS is less likely to happen than adding
SNMP to the mapper. ;)

No more so than implementing SNMP if you ask me.

      Yes it would, but wouldn't that be edging away from "implementing a
DEC protocol" to "emulating a DEC operating system component"?   (not
that it'd be that outlandish, given the origins of Cisco)

Because the one downside of the Cisco's is they don't speak NICE. It
would be awesome if they did.

What kind of cisco tunnel?   I'm curious as to if I could replicate
any of that setup with open source stuff...
I have a Cisco 7206VXR router that has Cisco's Decnet implementation
on it.   It is now acting as my area router, and connects to Dave's
Cisco via an IP tunnel.   From what I understand, Cisco's Decnet
implementation is proprietary - not sure if it works well with
non-Cisco stuff.
