Model MRN-200
MESSAGE ROUTING NODE
MRN-200
The Message Routine Node (MRN) is an EVI product which allows a MODCOMP
computer to participate in a TCP/IP LAN or WAN environment. |
 |
|
The MRN uses the 802.3/Ethernet Multivendor LAN Standard. This will
provide modular growth, which enables you to expand your computing
resources. The MRN is flexible enough to accomodate a variety of
industry standards (ISO or DNA).
|
The MRN provides both TCP and UDP communications services. A task on the
MODCOMP can communicate with a task executing on a processor connected to
the Ethernet LAN. The MODCOMP task can participate is either a server or
client mode. The MRN will support up to fifteen concurrent LAN
connections.

The MRN also provides an internal protocol for diagnostics and
configuration information from the MRN. This includes a PING command
which may be used to test a network path from the MRN to another system.
