514.0. "Single FDDI Ring between DECconsentrators" by OSL09::PAALO () Thu Mar 26 1992 04:57

    Will a configuration with to DECconsentrators with SMF Management Cards
    (DAS) and only two fibers connected between one A and B port, and the
    other two ports just looped ?
    
    This will not be a permanent configuration, only for a few months ?

	No problem, that's exactly the configuration you get (wrapped ring) if you did hook up both ports into a dual ring topology and then one of the connections is broken. Obviously if the one connection you have left fails, your network is split in half, but for testing purposes that's presumably acceptable. paul
