ACC has recently delivered to Rutgers University (re:  Messrs. Hendrick
and Marantz) a IBM to Ethernet attachment.  Functionally it is the same
basic hardware as the 370/DDN interface (ie.  Block Mux interface to the
channel with 68000 micro's running in a multi-processing environment)
except that it attaches directly to the LAN.  For host processors
running MVS it uses the UCLA developed code set (re:  Bob Braden) and
has yet to be tested for VM (which we believe should work based on
the McKay article in Signal).

The Rutgers system is a beta site and ACC will keep you aprised
as to the developments.

Let me know if you require additional information.

Regards,

Gary Krall
