Dear Colleagues,


We have recently bought a Wanrouter-500 Dec equipment. The router is
connected to an ethernet and to X.25. On the ethernet we use DECNET and
TCP/IP. A VAX 5100 (risc) machine is also connected to the network.
Basically this configuration is typical in three other places in
Hungary.

Colleagues from DEC state the following:
Either:
	the wanrouter software provides:
			PAD/X.25, DLM/X.25, OSI/X.25 directly.
	But (!) it cannot route TCP/IP over X.25 without the help of
	the VAX 5100 with the installation of a DECNET/IP gateway software.
Or:
	The wanrouter provides:
		 DLM/X.25, OSI/X.25, IP/X.25
	 But there is no PAD (X.3, X.28, X.29) access at all.

What we really wanted was or is:
		 OSI/X.25, PAD/X.25, IP/X.25, Decnet(DLM)/X.25.

We could either have DECNET or DECNET/OSI etc. 

Is anyone on the net who could clearify me the situation ?


Kind regards:
