Hello Mike,

                    In my ancient reading there is [ maybe was now ] a DNIP
solution for this.
Decnet over IP. I can't remember exactly what year therefore version it was
in of IOS but I'm sure
a CCO search would help. This may be your solution. Please let me know if
this helped or not.
Good luck.
