Having fun getting this one out. Sorry if this appears more than once.

What is the DNSMIM?

The DNSMIM is a board built by SGI for Cabletron Systems. The board is
a Media Interface Module (MIM) which slides into Cabletron's Multi-
Media Access Center (MMAC).

Hardware wise it is functionally the same as an IRIS Indigo R3000, but 
the DNSMIM lacks audio and video support.  The DNSMIM does support X11
terminals or a locally attached VT100 terminal.

The OS is a full compliment of IRIX 4.0.1. A minor modification was made
to the kernal to allow for shutdown and startup from the ON-OFF switch.

Anyone asking questions about the software is basically asking about
an IRIS Indigo running IRIX 4.0.1. 

I hope this group will accept any questions which appear about this
product.

With regards to your question, I do not have an answer, but now that 
everyone knows what the DNSMIM is, maybe someone can give you an answer.
