- 5.02) How about that SPARCstation 10?
-
- The hardware on the SS10 supports 2 B channels (64K+64K) and 1 D
- channel (16K) for a grand total 144K in marketing speak. Typically you
- might use both B channels for data, 1 channel for voice and 1 channel
- for data, or 1 channel for data to 1 point and 1 channel for data to
- another point. In some parts of the world it's also popular to run
- X.25 over the D channel.
-
- Info from the SPARCstation 10 full announcement e-mail:
-
- - What Becomes Available When:
- o ISDN
- Chip on the motherboard (done)
- ISDN Drivers on Solaris 2.1 or greater (done)
- Teleservices API Q1 CY93 Solaris 2.x
- Wide Area Networking software Q1 CY93 Solaris 2.x
- The chip on the motherboard provides a BRI (basic rate interface)
- ISDN connection that is integrated with workstation audio.
- The drivers provide a low level interface to the hardware.
- The Teleservices API enables application development for
- workstation/telephony integration - providing functions like
- call setup, transfer, hold, confer, etc. The API is hardware
- independent so that it will work with third party non-ISDN
- telephony hardware and software. The WAN software enables
- data communication - running IP over ISDN (in other words,
- applications that run over ethernet will run over ISDN).
- In the first release, Sun will support data communications
- in the US (for the AT&T 5ESS switch), the UK, France, Germany
- and Japan. We will support voice services in the US (for
- the AT&T 5ESS switch) only.
-
- This is also now available on the SPARCstation LX, and available as an
- SBus card for any SBus workstation running Solaris 2.1 or later.
-
- The current set of ISDN drivers for Solaris 2.1 or greater support
- the AT&T 5ESS switch; the next release is expected to support
- DMS-100 and national standard.
-
- Get API_xtel* from sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/sun-info/white-papers for
- more information on the API itself. The XTel libraries, etc., are
- not bundled with either Solaris 2.x or SunLink ISDN at this time.
-
- SunLink ISDN description (quoted from Fall/Winter '93 SunExpress catalog):
- The SunLink ISDN software included in both kits is based on the international
- CCITT standard, and supports the following carrier-dependent implementations:
- o AT&T 5ESS (U.S.)
- o France Telecom VN2 (France)
- o DBT 1TR6 (Germany)
- o Britsh Telecom ISDN2 (U.K.)
- o NTT INS-Net 64 (Japan)
-
- Sunlink ISDN software provides the following features:
- o Transparent IP connectivity, to allow you to run most existing IP
- applications, without modification, over ISDN
- o Graphics User Interface (GUI)-based configuration tool, for easy
- installation and administration
- o Security features, including callback, calling address, and PPP
- authentication password
- o Inactivity timer, for transparent open/close connections

- 5.03) How about that IBM Waverunner?
-
- The IBM WaveRunner Digital Modem is an internal adapter for personal
- computers (ISA, Microchannel or PCMCIA) which can communicate over an
- ISDN line to either ISDN destinations or analog modems and FAX
- machines. WaveRunner requires ISDN Basic Rate service, an NT-1, and
- either OS/2 2.1 or higher or Microsoft Windows 3.1 or higher.
-
- WaveRunner uses AT-style commands, can be used with existing
- communication application, supports V.120 encapsulation and performs
- TCP/IP SLIP to Synchronous TCP/IP Translation.
-
- The WaveRunner Hot Line at 1-919-254-ISDN is available for questions
- Technical Support. For a product brochure, call 1-800-426-3395 and
- request document 13403. To order, call 1-800-IBM-2YOU (1-800-426-2968)

- 5.04) How about that SGI?
-
- Indy ISDN BRI:
-
- Available as a no charge option to all Indy owners running IRIX 5.2
- or one of its patch variants. ISDN will be bundled with the releases
- after IRIX 5.2. In North America, call SGI customer service at
- 1-800-800-4744; otherwise, call the local support office.
-
- CONFORMANCE:
-
- Indy ISDN has been approved for the following switch protocols in the
- following countries:
-
- - 1TR6 in Germany
- - Euro-ISDN in Germany, Sweden, and Finland
- - NTT in Japan
-
- Indy ISDN has been working with the following switch protocols in the
- United States:
-
- - DMS100
- - 5ESS
- - National ISDN1
-
- Countries other than the United States and Canada may require testing
- or approval before Indy ISDN can be operated in that country. Please
- check with your local provider or with SGI before using Indy ISDN in a
- country that is not listed above.
-
- CAPABILITIES
-
- The Indy transfers circuit switched data on the B channels. A point to
- point (PPP) daemon runs in the background on the Indy and uses ISDN to
- set up a IP link to the destination machine.
-
- Both B channels can be combined using a round-robin packet sending
- scheme to maximize throughput. This is sometimes called "inverse
- multiplexing". It is also similar to "bonding".
-
- PPP can also be configured to bring up one or both B channels as the
- bandwidth demand increases and bring down the channels when the demand
- decreases. This is commonly known as "bandwith-on-demand".
-
- PPP utilizes a variety of compression, thus increasing data throughput
- to beyond 128Kb.
-
- PPP uses PAP to authenticate connections.
-
- For more specialized data transfer applications which do not want to
- use PPP, an ASI interface is available.
-
- INTEROPERABILITY
-
- The Indy is interoperable with the following:
- - Other Indy systems
- - Network Express Interhub
- - Ascend

- 5.05) How about that HP?
-
- The HP ISDN Link products for the HP Apollo Workstations (HP 9000
- S700) and HP Unix Servers (HP 9000 S800) provides network connections
- to public or private ISDN networks.
-
- An HP 9000 connected to the ISDN network can communicate with any HP
- or non-HP system which implements the TCP/IP protocol and which
- encapsulates IP packets according to X.25 RFC877/1356 or with the PPP
- protocol (J2460A/J2455A). Also, with J2461A/J2456A ordered, the HP
- 9000 equipped with an ISDN Link can act as a non-dedicated IP router
- for any system attached to the LAN.
-
- The main features of the product are :
- * B Channel switching communication at 56/64 Kbps up to 384Kbps
- Up to three BRI per system are supported.
- * RFC 1356 compliant for X.25 encapsulation between ISDN and
- TCP/IP and PPP interoperability
- * X.25 packet switching over D channel
- * SNMP based network management
-
- Major HP ISDN BRI Link Benefits:
- * Optimizes communication costs
- * Transparency for the end-user
- * Access to packet switching networks via D channel
- * Network security
- * Centralized management through HP OpenView Node Manager
- * Interoperability
