1148.0. "Notice to users of the 23-365A1-00 "shadow address" feature" by KONING::KONING (Paul Koning, B-16504) Mon Nov 15 1993 16:44

IMPORTANT:

Currently, addresses in the 23-365A1-00 LAN address ROM have a "shadow"
associated with each address.  The shadow is obtained by a simple algorithm
from the address stored in the ROM.

The current block assigned to that part is running out, and a new block
has been assigned.  At this time we need to start phasing out the "shadow"
feature.  Therefore I have assigned a "shadow" only to about a 6 months'
volume of addresses.

Everyone who is using this feature in some product should get in touch
will me.  I know most of them, but in case I missed one: would any of you
who are responsible for such a product send me mail or a phone call?  And if
you know someone who is, please ask them to do likewise.
