3854.0. "CSMACD station buffers - follow up note 3800" by DECPRG::10.1.237.1::praha::slavik () Thu Jan 30 1997 04:35

Hi,
We have made upgarde VMS 6.1 to 6.2 as is recomended in note 3800, but 
CSMACD station buffers have still value 8 as in 6.1
Hardware upgrade is inpossible at this time.
Exist some patch which solves this problem ?

Thanks in advance

    None that I know of, but you might want to check with VMS Engineering
    to be sure because they own the drivers.
    
    Support for the NCL SET CSMA STATION <station_id> STATION BUFFERS
    command was recently removed (starting with DECnet/OSI V6.3 ECO3) to
    eliminate the confusion that resulted when the command appeared to
    succeed, but the value did not change.  NET$CSMACD used to "lie" to
    EMAA that the management request succeeded when in reality no change
    was made because the values were hardcoded.
