828.0. "DECbridge 5xx trap address bug" by QUIVER::WALTER () Mon Jan 11 1993 21:57

    There seem to be several entries in this file regarding difficulties
    with setting trap addresses on the DECbridge. A bug was just found 
    that may explain some of these problems.
    
    Problem: 
    Attempting to set trap address through SNMP causes bridge to reset.
    
    Affected:
    Hardware - DECbridge 500 series only 
    Firmware - V1.2.1
               V1.2.2
               V1.2B
    
    Bug:
    An SNMP data structure is not being properly initialized. Attempting
    to set a trap address causes a bus error which crashes the bridge.
    The 600 series bridges aren't affected because memory is zeroed during
    device initialization.
    
    Fix:
    The problem will be fixed in V1.3 firmware, currently in field test.
