658.0. "DEMFA, DEFCN and DECelms" by HAMSUP::BBURGER () Fri Jul 24 1992 12:24

Hi,

Config. 6410 with VMS 5.4-3 ,DEMFA ,DEFCN , and CISCO boxes on FDDI.
        DECelms V 1.2 .

        There is no search on FX device in ELMS$STARTUP.COM
        Is it possible to manage the DEFCN with the FXA device ? 
        
        "Start list" are not posible, after editing the ELMS$STARTUP.COM
        to use the FXA device.
        "SDA> show lan/full" shows only FXA dev. with SCA (60-07) and 
        DECNET (60-03) but no 60-02 MOP-RC.


	The problem is : Multicast dest. addr. of AB-00-00-02-00-00 
	are not passed from the CISCO Boxes.
	So the Customer can not manage the DEFCN.


 2nd.   switching the 'service' on , on circ MFA-0 under NCP
	the circ will stay on status -onsyncronizing.
	Is this not supported on DEMFA's ??

	Thanks,

	Joerg

    	If I remember well, you can define a logical name
    which will allow you to use "unknown LAN device".
    
    It could be 
    	$ define/sys NMS_ELMS$UNA FXA0
    
    but you must check the current one before.
