[HECnet] Getting reconnected...

[Mark Abene]

I was emulating a full cisco 7206VXR in dynamips/dynagen on my linux/ARM based NAS, doing DECnet GRE tunneling to Dave, *and* running KLH10.   The only reason I moved them both to an Intel NUC was that neither emulator supports CPU idling on ARM, and I was worried about the CPU overheating since it was always pegged at 100%.   If this is not an issue for you (and you have adequate cooling), there's no reason you can't emulate a cisco on linux/ARM.

No, I have a Linux ARM machine, but no Cisco gear (not keen on having a lump of Cisco gear just for DECnet)

I honestly don't know if it works on this ISP line. I assume it does but I've never tested it.
