| 2084.1 | Yes, SAS to DAS connections work | NETCAD::THOMPSON | | Thu Jul 11 1996 12:11 | 13 |

Yes, you can connect SAS cards to *a* port on the DAS card directly.
For example, if you are using our PCI/FDDIcontroller (DEFPA), you
should load the latest drivers, and then connect your cable between
the SAS port and one of the ports on the DAS card. If the port LEDs
on both cards are solid green, then you have a valid connection. If
the port LED on the DAS card isn't solid green, then unplug the cable,
and plug it into the other port. The LEDs should now be solid green
and you will have a valid point to point connection.

| 2084.2 | and for oldest configuration ? | LYOISA::GAUDIEZ | | Fri Jul 12 1996 05:17 | 13 |

Thanks,
You are talking about the latest drivers. Is it a new feature of this
driver that does not exist with oldest configuration ?
The exactly configuration is a connection between VAXstation 4000 (SAS)
and AlphaServer 1000 (DAS)
Vaxstation OpenVMS VAX V5.5-2 with DEC LAN device driver V1.0
SAS interface DEFTA-AA
AlphaServer 1000 OpenVMS Alpha V6.2
DAS interface DEFEA-DA

| 2084.3 | SAS-to-DAS works; are the LEDs green? | NETCAD::ROLKE | Interrupt driven Herefords | Mon Jul 15 1996 00:09 | 11 |
| Bernard,
A SAS-to-DAS connection (S-to-A or S-to-B) has been a requirement
since day one. This is not a function of any new drivers.
However, if the connection doesn't work as it should then the first
advice will be to get the latest drivers.
Is your configuration giving you a problem?

Thanks for your help.

| Yes, it will work. We've supported this configuration since our first
FDDI adapter (DEFZA).
