[HECnet] Multinet alternatives ...

[Mark Pizzolato]

He’s programmed an IMP emulation that gateways to an Ethernet.  As I said, this way it ONLY does IP.  The gateway, since it is an Ethernet device does dynamically does ARP for the IP traffic that is presented on what the host sees as a point-to-point link.

A later on project, which we’d like your involvement in, is an IMP connection talking directly to the H316’s recently implemented host interface that Charles Anthony worked out.

Given that the available H316 IMP software isn’t IP capable, that would be for talking NCP.

  Did he just program an IMP emulation, or is he actually going to talk to an H316?
