- We use (not surprisingly) DEC hardware to build host-based
- screening routers. See Mogul's paper on the packet screen, for more
- details. My gateway here (decuac.dec.com) is built of a DECsystem2100,
- a MicroVAXII with a pair of ethernet interfaces, and another
- DECsystem2100 internally running IP and DECnet.
