925.0. "ATMworks 350L and VNswitchEA" by BPSOF::KIRALY (Endre Kir�ly) Tue Apr 29 1997 08:26

Hi,

Our customer has a VNswitchEA (in a MS900 hub), and an Intel NT 4.0 server with
an ATMworks 350L in it. We use the latest ORCA 3.0 (Efficient) software for the
ATMworks350L, the ATM card is connected to the VNswEA directly with UTP cable,
and there is a PC connected to one of the Ethernet port of the VNswitch:

                            -----------------             ---------
                           |   Ethernet port-|-----------|    PC   |
 ----------                |                 |           | Netbeui |
| NT4.0 Srv|               |      VNswEA     |           | (TCPIP) |
| ORCA 3.0 |  Br. Tunnel   |                 |            ---------
| ATMw350L------------------- Interface 13   |
| Netbeui  |    VCI=100    |                 |
 ----------                 -----------------


 - Both of the ATM leds on ATMworks350L and VNswitchEA light, so the physical
   connection seemes to be correct
 - We defined Bridge Tunnel (rfc 1483) on both side
 - VCI numbers are defined correctly on both side (=100)
 - The state of bridge tunnel is UP on VNswEA
 - The state of Interface 13 is UP on VNswEA
 - VNswEA-PC connection is correct, ie. ping from the PC to the VNswEA works
 - we use NETBEUI both of the NT server and PC client.

Everething seemes to be fine but the connection between the NT server and the PC
doesn't work.

What's wrong? Had anybody ever tried this type of ATM configuration?

Thanks,

Endre

    Endre,
    
    I don't understand why did you configure a bridge tunnel?

Probably because that's how it comes up by default?

Isn't the new world order just like the old plug and play?  ;-)
