# Getting DECnet Node Numbers

The Operations Group (in collaboration with CS Group) is responsible for allocating DECnet node numbers at CERN. Requests for node numbers should be sent to:

    				decnet-support@vxgift.cern.ch
    			or 	vxgift::decnet-support

If a request is urgent then the Network Operator can be contacted directly by telephone (4927). This phone number will always be answered and in the worst case the requestor is referred to a backup person for node number allocation.
