Hi,

It's all in the SPD for "Compaq Wide Area Networking for Tru64 Unix".
available here:

http://www5b.compaq.com/info/SP4247/SP4247PF.PDF

Base line is: X.25 currently supported up to Tru64 5.1 and the AlphaServer
DS20E can use the PBXDI-Ax and PBXDP-Ax as well as the PBXDD-Ax cards.

Subject: Synchonous PCI cards for Tru64 systems.

Hi,

I need to equip an AlphaServer DS20E with a X.25 connection. The idea
is to plug in a synchronous serial PCI card into the DS20E which is
also supported by the Tru64 X.25 software. Any ideas anyone if:

* The Tru64 X.25 software (I think it's called WAN software on the
  Layered products CD) is also supported under Tru64 5.1
  and if not what is the highes OS version the WAN software is
  supported on ?

* there exist any sync. serial PCI cards for Alphas which are supported
  by both Tru64 and the WAN software?

Thanks for any hints // Tom

P.S: The DS20E option catalog lists only these cards:

PCI 2-port synchronous controller; maximum two PBXDP-Ax controllers
      per system, PBXDP-AA
PCI 4-port synchronous controller; maximum two PBXDP-Ax controllers
      per system, PBXDP-AB

but they don't seem to be supported by Tru64.
