DecServer replacement

berlioz — Tue, 04 Oct 2005 07:44:19 GMT

Hello,
in order to replace my old DecServer (using LAT protocol), i'm actually looking for the right TCP/IP port server / terminal server working with OpenVMS 7.3-2 on alpha server.

Who can help me ?

thanks in advance for all

I think other companies do devices but I've always used DECservers. I have seen NetQ boxes for serial printers but they where unreliable.

We've replaced all our DECservers with units from MRV (formally Xyplex). IR8020s to be percise. We're very happy with them.

Jeffrey, why did you replace your DECservers?
(for my own education).
