You've lost me. None of the DEFEA or DEFPA drivers care whether the
card is SAS or DAS. There's ZERO difference at the driver level, so to
answer your question, any DEFEA or DEFPA driver that exists for Digital
UNIX will support the DAS variants by definition.
Are you having trouble getting the DAS card to work the way you
expected?

Ah. That's a different question. The DEFEA/DEFPA adapters provide an
interface for host-based drivers/apps to get SNMP MIB-type information,
but that's an implementation issue.
I'd check with the Digital UNIX folks to see whether they've written an
SNMP co-agent for DEFEA/DEFPA to provide the information you're looking
for. At the very least, it's possible that this information is
available through netstat or some other local configuration utility.
