198.0. "DECmcc and Terminal Networks" by RCOJDS::SHOWALTER (Jay Showalter) Fri Jul 20 1990 17:46

I realize that I'm selling a system to a customer who isn't using the traditional
VAX approach.  I am selling a VAX 6000 system to an IBM 3090 shop to provide a
dedicated application to over 30 branch banks along the East Coast.  They will
be placing terminals and printers only in the branches and they will all be
multiplexed back to the central "mainframe".  Therefore, there is not network
of computers to manage, just terminal servers and modems/muxes.

However, the customer is currently using NetView and intelligent modems in their
IBM environment to make it easier to manage and troubleshoot the IBM system.
They would like the same capability on the DEC side.

Does DECmcc have anything to offer here?  What are out plans for managing modems
(both locally and remotely)?
