1805.0. "sun connection fails with alpha" by FIRSC1::CECCHI () Wed Sep 13 1995 10:29



	A customer in Florence has a workstation Sun Sparc20/61 equipped with
	a board Sunlink FDDI/S 3.0 DAS.
	It is connected in a ring with two workstations Alpha and a bridge
	Lanplex,that interconnects an ethernet network.
	If the customer connects the port B of the SUN to the port A of the
	bridge Lanplex,every thing works fine;
	if the port B of the Sun is connected to the port A of one of
	both the Alphas,the self test fails,and no traffic is allowed
	on this path.
	The customer has tried a point to point connection between Sun 	
	and Alpha,but the problem persists.
	SUN too has been involved ,but they have given no answer.
	Can anyone give me any suggestion?

	Many thanks in advance   Pierluigi Cecchi
