3009.0. "Frontier contract ??" by MARS03::THOMAS () Mon Nov 27 1995 06:14

    
    	My french customer uses a huge FDDI + Ethernet LAN (FDDI on the
    backbone, 20 bridged Ethernet segments, 1000 connections on the LAN).
    
    	He wants to manage his Ethernet segments and FDDI ring with probes.
    
    	Our Digital products (from FRONTIER) can only manage Ethernet and
    Token Ring LAN.
    
    	Have we any international contract with Frontier to resell Frontier
    hardware and software to manage customers'network?
    
    	If there is a contract, what is it ?
    
    	If there is no contract, who (name + phone) can i contact in Frontier
    to deal with them the solution for my customer ?
    
    	Thank you for your answers.
    
    	Regards,

You can now resell Frontier's FDDI and WAN probes, as well as their 
NETscout Manager software (PROBEwatch equivalent) on Sun, HP, and IBM 
UNIX. 

Here are the Frontier model numbers which we can sell. The prices below 
represent the Digital selling price to Customers. These represent a 5% 
markup on Frontier's list prices. Frontier sells additional options, 
primarily with additional memory, or with Token Ring instead of Ethernet 
cards. The DT numbers are the Digital order numbers.

Product descriptions:
WAN Probe - 6050/8 is Frontier's probe with a WAN interface and an 
	Ethernet AUI interface. It will be shipped with a V.35 interface 
	on the WAN side. The WAN interface connects between the router 
	and the DSU/CSU.

FDDI probe - 7101/ET/8 is Frontier's probe with a UTP FDDI port and an 
	Ethernet AUI interface. They use Digital's PCI FDDI NIC as the 
	FDDI interface. The PROBEwatch-probe traffic must travel over 
	the Ethernet or the SLIP port; you cannot manage in-band on 
	the FDDI; you can only monitor on the FDDI port. The 8 in 
	Frontier's part number signifies 8 Meg of RAM.

FDDI probe - 7102/ET/8 is Frontier's probe with a SAS Multimode fiber 
	interface; everything else is the same as the 7101/ET/8.


Functionality is the same as for the DECpacketprobe and PROBEwatch, 
except the Statistics reported are appropriate to the interface type.
