Hi,
Looking for a home is a Tricom Custodian II network security
controller. This is a device that sits between modems and equipment to
be protected (host computer/terminal server etc.), and provides a layer
of extra security, including ring-back.
This is a 19" rack-mounting unit with dual (one redundant) power
supplies. The frame itself consists of a backplane that accepts HD63B09
(6809 compatible) SBCs, each controlling two host/modem pails (four
serial lines). The frame accepts one Supervisory Module. and up to 16
Line modules (the cards are distinguished only by their firmware). The
Supervisory Module has connects to a serial log printer and a terminal.
With the frame comes the SM and four LMs, and cables to suit (so up
to eight lines could be protected).
There is a manual, too, but I have put it in a safe place, so it'll
have to follow the unit when it re-surfaces. The system is menu-driven,
and is fairly intuitive, so this should not be a problem.
I am looking for some sort of swap:- I would love a KA655 CPU for
my uVAX, perhaps with some (up to two) 16MB memory cards to suit, or a
very basic EIS '11 QBUS system (no need for storage, just
CPU/serial/memory). I am, of course, open to other offers...
The beast weighs in the region of 12Kg, plus cables, so collection
might be the best option (west Berkshire), although I'm sure that Parcel
Force would appreciate the business.
Cheers,
Dave.
