Hello, everyone,

I have the following scenario, which I'd like to present to the net and
see what other people may suggest.

The company I work for has a central site in Ventura, CA, and remote sites
around the state, between 80 and 300 miles away.

The central site has two VAX cpu's, and I need about 16-20 terminals or
printers at each remote site. There's no need to have 'stuff' at the remote
sites networked with the central site at this point (such as PC's running
Pathworks for example), but it may be needed in the future.

DEC's suggestion was to go with DECMuxes. Terry Poot suggested to use
a product called ILAN, to extend the LAN from the central site to the
remote sites. The VAXes have DECnet, but no TCP/IP. If we are to set up
DEC (or third party) terminal servers at the remote sites, they communicate
with the cpu's via LAT, a non-routable protocol.

What would you suggest?

Thanks,

Jav
