You're missing my point: it's simply -too- late in most western countries,
they already -have- multiple ADMD's allocating PRMD`s without central
coordination. 
If you can convince all the ADMD's in the US (for example) to change
their PRMD's to be unique, congratulations (just think about what it
costs a PRMD owner to change his address).

The contrary is X.400(84), chapter 3.3.2, where Variant 2 O/R names
consist of Country, ADMD, UA unique numeric identifier and DDAs.
No Surname or PRMD is even ALLOWED.

Also, it is common for DD.RFC-822 attributes (that you, from your
address, should see a lot of if Sprint's gateway is RFC-1327 compliant)
to run around without PRMD fields, and they NEVER have surname fields.
(See any DDA-using message from C=fi;ADMD=funet, for instance)

So the rule you refer to is broken by a lot of existing systems.

Hello,

for thoose who may know a little about the ISODE layers, is it possible
to obtain the connecting users identity from the ACSAP?  I guess it
may depend on the applications, but is a username transfered 
with the connection setup info for any applications?  

Lastly, Does the session layer PDU have both theintiating
users ID, or name, and a responding users ID?  I am digging around
in the code and can see the address of the initiating host, but
no where do I get info for any application about usernames.  Is this
specific to an application (ie: vt), and thus unavailable within
the layers.?  thanks for any help.

Organization: UNI-C, Danish Computing Centre for Research and Education

We are just about to start a development project where we are going
to use ISODE. This is an inquiry to help us to decide which unix
workstation we should acquire to do the development on. We need to commu-
nicate using OSI protocols both on top of IP-networks, but also on
top of CONS-based networks (X.25).

I request anyone having definitive answers about the possibilities of doing
this for various workstations to enlighten me about this.

Until now we have considered the following alternatives with some remarks
resulting from discussion with collegues:

decstation/ultrix: should be ok for ISODE work except that we don't know
whether ISODE on top of X.25 works on this platform.

rs6000/aix: doesn't work too well, but this kan possibly be fixed

hp/ux: should work both for IP-based and X.25 networks, but a definitive
answer would be nice

sun: used to be the platform of choice, but I'm told that ISODE in its
current incarnation won't work with Solaris.

All X.25 DTE addresses and telephone numbers are allocated according to

Perhaps your local telephone company can suggest where you might turn.

Private X.25 networks don't have assigned network numbers.  The number
you're thinking of is an X.121 address.  X.121 addresses begin with a
DNIC, Data Network Identification Code.  DNICs for the United States
are passed out by either Dep't of State or the FCC, I can't remember
which.  These folks are working from allocations made by the CCITT. 
However, you can't have one, because those are only for public
networks.  Really, you don't need one, anyway.  It's only useful if you
connect to a public X.25 network.

So, you say, "but we do want to connect to a public X.25 network."  In
that case, the United States has a thing called "Shared DNICs," which was
set up by the FCC and ANSI as part of an inquiry made a couple of years ago
when we noticed that we were running out of numbers.  Under the Shared
DNIC principle, you get a range of X.25 numbers under your public network
provider DNIC.  Tough if you want to change providers.  

So, unless you have folks OUT of your X.25 network who need to make data
connections (i.e., not PAD connections) INTO your X.25 network, I wouldn't
bother.  

Now, if you were the Canadian Coast Guard, things would be different...

Another possibility for you is to grab one of the "ships at sea" DNICs,
which I've never understood what they were for, but if they apply to
anyone, they might apply to you (look in the back of X.121 to see).

Because some time ago we weren't sure if we needed to reserve another selector
value or not.  Note that some time in future in a product far far away we will
be allowing 0 and 1 for endsystem.  As are routers the restriction about 0 will
still be in force but the one about 1 will be lifted

whether Read Only access is sufficient to run our SNMP manager
stations SunNet Manager and HP Openview.

Can some informed person explain to us the difference and perhaps the
ramifications of making this decision? Perhaps explain what
capabilities will be loose by disabling write access?

Instead of RFC1156, I suggest that you use RFC1213 instead.  Also
look at RFC1212 (Concise MIB format) and RFC1215 (an informational
document about traps).

Also, Marshall Rose has written a primer on SNMP called "The Simple Book"
that is an excellent source of information.
