Using the .device files found in those archives can be quite dangerous,
especially in a heterogeneous environment where multiple protocol
stacks are being run; or in a multicast setting; or in a situation
where you ever want to take your device offline.

They are quite buggy.

Updated versions of those devices are sold with both I-Net 225 and
Envoy.
