601.0. "Basic FDDI questions..." by XLIB::PAANANEN () Fri Jun 05 1992 11:31

  I have received the following questions from a customer, however
  I am not fluent in FDDI...pointers to notes, docs, appreciated
  where applicable. Thanks.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have some questions about the Turbochannel FDDI Adapter driver.
The adapter name is DEFZA.

I have the following questions:
	- What is the device driver name?
	- What is the DECnet line ID for this device? (Such as QNA-0
	  for a DEQNA.)
	- In what version of VMS will the driver be available?

    The driver will be FCDRIVER.  The devices will appear as FC devices.
    
    The DECnet line/circuit name is FZA-0.
    
    It will be supported in a release that will PROBABLY be called V5.5-2;
    but there are no guarantees on the name of the release.  That version
    OF VMS should be available in a few months.
