Message-ID: <27@cybavax.UUCP> Date: Fri, 14-Dec-84 14:03:31 EST Article-I.D.: cybavax.27 Posted: Fri Dec 14 14:03:31 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 18-Dec-84 03:33:17 EST Organization: University College Swansea, Wales Lines: 14 Xref: watmath net.lan:560 net.wanted:5376 net.unix-wizards:11091 Does anyone out there have information and/or sources relating to Ethernet terminal concentrators? Is it reasonable to configure a VAX 11/785 supporting 40-80 users with all tty stuff going down the Ethernet to 5-10 terminal concentrators? (This theoretical machine would theoretically be running 4.2 BSD.) Any details of hardware would be very welcome too. Does anyone know whether such an Ethernet configuration would be supported by Network Research Corp.'s Fusion software, since we already have this running on a couple of Codata CTW-300 unix machines. -- vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv > Rich Artym, Elec.Eng., Univ.College of Swansea, Swansea SA2 8PP, Wales, UK. < > UUCP : {UK}!ukc!ru-cs44!cybavax!rartym ; JANET : rartym@swxa/234207920018 < ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
