1641.0. "Does the DEFEA support Full Duplex Operation under OSF/1 V3.0A" by KERNEL::CHOPRAA () Tue Mar 28 1995 05:48

The release notes for the DEFEA version 2.3A (August 1994) state that the 

	"use of DEFEA-?? in full Duplex FDDI mode in certain operating environments 
	 may result in unreliable operation, including loss of data.  DO NOT enable
	 full duplex FDDI mode if you are using DEFEA with the following device 
	 drivers.

	DEFEA device driver for Digital OSF/1 V3.0A."

My customer cannot upgrade to 3.2 (which I think supports Full duplex?) so I need to
know if there is a patch available to this device driver to enable full duplex operation
under V3.0A.  If there is, could I have a pointer.

Thanks
