2118.0. "selecting from multiple ethernets and ASE" by SPACE2::HABERLAND (Melbourne, FLa 360-7429) Wed Jan 29 1997 15:20

    
    Hi,
    
    	I have a customer who has two 2100A's running ASE. They have
    mutliple ethernet cards in each. I want to run using only one
    of the cards and can not get it to work. When running decnetsetup
    advanced and it asks me if I want to autoconfigure I tell it no.
    It then comes back and says the dna_node_id is tu1. I then answer
    all the questions and tell it to use tu0. Is there any wierdness 
    with ASE running and telling it to use a particular ethernet card?
    I need to get it running on tu0.
    
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    
    Thanks,
    	Dave

2118.1Note 1339 had same problem and no luck.SPACE2::HABERLANDMelbourne, FLa 360-7429Fri Jan 31 1997 07:539
    
    I have search this notesfile all over and found another note where
    someone had the same problem. He was asked to try multiple things,
    which I have and still no luck. The other note is 1339 and it appears
    that the person is no longer with Digital.
    
    Thanks,
    	Dave

Having the dna_node_id come from tu1 and using tu0 should be no problem.
(all the system is doing is picking the "smallest" hardware address to
use a unique identifier.  It doesn't really remember where it came from).
