Can we configure a Decsystem 5000 with 3 ethernet connexion and 1 FDDI
connexion using TCP/IP.?
Have you any ideas about this kind of router IP ?
Any comments ?
Thanks

Didier,
it seems that the answer is written in the Sales update (July
issue page 34). Installing the FDDIcontroller 700 and other
FDDI or Ethernet controllers provide you with the IP routing
capability you need.
The total number of interfaces are ruled by the available slots.

The article mentions 3 FDDI controllers in the available Turbochannel
slots - it does not mention how many ethernets are supported. I have
heard that only 2 ethernets are supported by the driver for this
system, though in the light of the FDDI boards supported, there would
appear to be no technical reason for not having 3 ethernets.
Can anyone else clarify this position ?
