DECNET_MIGRATE.HLB  —  COLLECT
 Collect information on the current configuration of the network.  This
 will store the information in a configuration data file which may be used
 as input for a subsequent REPORT command.

       COLLECT collection-file-name -
         [ROUTING_TYPE = { ALL | ROUTERS | L1_ROUTERS | L2_ROUTERS }] -
         [AREAS = { ALL | LOCAL | NODE:node-name }] -
         [NODES = node-list-file-name] -
         [STATUS = status-report-count] -
         [RETRY = connection-retry-count]

       COLLECT collection-file-name RECOVER

 The command will dynamically determine what nodes are accessible in the
 network, using both DECnet-Plus and DECnet Phase IV network management.
 It will then query each node for the specified information, and write
 that information to the specified data file.

 It will also create an "address polling list" file.  This file is used by
 the function to hold the addresses of the nodes to be polled, and is
 deleted when it is no longer needed.  The file name is created by
 appending "_SEA" to the collection file name extension.

 Example:  COLLECT CONFIG_01_23_90.DAT
