189.0. "SNA over FDDI ?" by LFOIS1::MOUSSU (Laurent MOUSSU @LFO, Lille, FRANCE) Tue Dec 18 1990 15:48
Hello, I'm a brand new consulting engineer at EIS, Lille, France.
We have a customer evaluating the possibility to backbone various
sub-LANS with either FDDI or 802.5. (He is a Blue customer too).
It arises two questions:
1) Assuming he buys the (best !...) FDDI solution, will the software
DECnet/SNA products run through FDDI (e.g. 3270 Terminal Emulation)
2) Assuming he prefers the other solution, will the same software
products run through a 802.5/802.3 bridge.
Clearly, some problems with the last assumption would really help us as
to sell the other one (beside many other considerations: I got the
tables comparing both technologies).
Thanks for help.
Laurent
