Ken/Richard,
Just for clarification, NMS 8.1.1 is not currently supported under
NetView 5.1. Not sure who at Bay said it would be certified for NetView
5.1, but that was wishful thinking.
Nortel Networks may regression test it against NetView 5.1 in the near
future, but right now, it is not officially supported. However, as Richard
states, I haven't heard of any problems running under NetView 5.1 besides
the lack of official support.
