Is anyone having problems with DECbridge 510 counters NOT being
reset after you cycle the power off/on.
I have also use DECmcc to reset BRidge with little success.
Some counters are being reset like total frame sent and
frames rec .
BUT BAD Frame Recieved remain at 23479189504
Transmit Frame lost remain at 4294967296
Lifetime Exceeded Frames remain at 4294967296
Recieve Frames Lost remain at 2863333376
(Also the IP counters and others)
At first I thought there was a little bug as four DECbridge 510
have the same values as shown above .
But there is a BIG problem. If a power reset, fails to clear these
counters.
The DECbridge 610 is greater .A bridge reset zeros the all the
counters.
I am having strange problems with RSM and DECnet copies and I was hoping
to use the DECbridge counters as a troubleshooting tool.

It appears that you have field test versions of DECbridge firmware. | |||||
| 547.3 | Digital must of shipped Field test Hardware | SEDSWS::MALLOY | Tue Apr 28 1992 13:19 | 21 | |
Can you clarify this is FIRMWARE VERSION which is field test
and not the SOFTWARE VERSION which is field test.
Can you upgrade the firmware .Do I need have to order a FCO kit or
order a set of ROMS ?
The DECbridge 610 was shipped to the customer through normal digital
channels and DECbridges 510 were upgrade from DECbridges 500.
The Customer has Not done any software upgrades.
If the firmware is wrong then Digital has shipped Field TEST
DECbridge 610 and Field TEST upgrade modules
Which upgrade kit do I need to order for the customer software
or firmware ??
