DS7.1 retains backward compatibility with previous versions for the replication protocol (although DS7.1 when replicating with 'itself' will use a slightly different protocol that is significantly more efficient over high-latency network paths). Replication protocol compatibility with Sun isn't a supported or tested feature, but it should work provided Sun haven't changed their product to make it incompatible since the two codelines diverged.
