   interconnect solutions for DECnet and TCP/IP networks

o  Operating system independent

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Forest Computer designs, develops, markets, and supports IBM interconnect
products worldwide. Digital and Forest Computer have formed a relationship
to offer a series of IBM interconnect products based on Digital's Alpha AXP
technology.

Forest's Alpha AXP based turnkey network gateways provide OpenVMS AXP,
OpenVMS VAX, DEC OSF/1, ULTRIX, Windows NT, and PATHWORKS systems with
access to IBM mainframe, AS/400, and System/3X systems. Access routines
running within Forest's self-contained gateway provide support for
bidirectional terminal access, file transfer, print routing, and
program-to-program communications between systems in APPN, SNA, DECnet, LAT,
and TCP/IP networks.

Forest's gateways are dedicated turnkey systems. Installation and operation
are performed using a Forest provided user interface. This interface shields
the user from the complexities of the operating system and the layered
products embedded within Forest's solution. It also makes the Forest product
an easy-to-implement solution in both OpenVMS AXP and DEC OSF/1
environments.

BENEFITS

o  Compatibility with both DECnet and TCP/IP networks.

o  Direct access from application systems, servers, workstations, PCs, and
   terminal servers.

o  Operating system independence.

o  Layered software not required on clients, servers, or application
   systems.

o  Communications overhead offloaded from clients, servers, and application
   systems.
