[ PERLF Compatibility ]
Okay Scott, I've been digging since I received your response. All I can do now is throw links at you regarding the industry's viewpoint on Perle's products, and how they held up to its scrutiny:
From Computer Reseller News:
techweb.com
From Info World, a good description of the positives and negatives are addressed
infoworld.com
And from the following link:
pctoday.com
"...The Perle supports dynamic IP addressing, which simplifies access for remote users by handling cryptic numbers automatically when a dial-up call comes in.
The Perle 833/4E works with leading NOSes, including Novell NetWare, Windows NT, OS/2 LAN Server, Banyan VINES, and Digital's DECnet."
And a Strengths/Weaknesses section.
And a commentary on Remote Controls v. Remote Access:
zdnet.com
And from the Pile, Shiva and Perle stand out from the rest, in their own ways:
zdnet.com
Some Perle strengths: ease of use, great value, strong technical support and service.
I guess I learned a lot trying to pull this all up for you. Hope it helps answer some of the compatibility questions, plus some others.
Regards,
