- Yes, we've done exactly that -- at least with partial success. Our
- only problem was that the SNA-tunnel can't get through frames larger
- than about 1500 or 2000 bytes unfragmented.
-
- If I remember right, this isn't actually a problem with the tunnel
- itself, but rather a limit of the hardware of the serials: they are
- limited to 1500 or 2000 bytes (don't remember the exact figure
- though).
-
- If fragmentation isn't a problem for your SNA-applications you should
- be happy with the STUN connecting FEPs though. We've had no
- configuration tuning besides proxy-poll in order to keep the WAN
- responsive.
-
- On the software-side we used 8.3(1) and 8.3(3). (we've done our tests
- some months ago)
