Hi Tim,

DECnet on this test system is just Decnet IV running on VMS 7.3.

I can   t do a loop node to 12.1023 but not sure that would work anyway if it is a cisco.

Also can   t seem to get to 12.2. Have just rebooted 22.10 as SIMH may have crashed.

Mark

HI,

I have been playing with my cisco router and a SIMH Vax over the break.

from my router I can see the following neighbours

cmrtr01#show decnet nei

My SIMH Vax can see my router and has an adjacency. My node is 22.10 and router 22.100

Can anyone see area 22 as I don   t seem to be able to communicate elsewhere.

Hi Mark,

My network is 12, your Tunnel57 hooks into my router.   From my router I am able to ping 22.100, but I cannot reach 22.10. Are you able to hit my router (12.1023) or my VAX (12.2)?   Which version of DECnet are you running on 22.10?

I am happy to help you figure out what might be going on.

Regards, Tim.
