Lines: 13 Keywords: DecServer broadcast Someone has asked to put DecServer 200s on a IP/DECnet only Ethernet. I am thinking I might be able to tolerate DecServers if they aren't too noisy. Isolating them behind a bridge from the local ethernet is my idea. What kind of broadcast babbling load will a couple of DecServers and a VAX 8650 leak through a bridge onto the building Ethernet? I am blissfully ignorant of the LAT protocol. You may e-mail direct. Thanks. Kent England, Boston University
