1974.0. "DECMCC QUESTIONS V1.1" by BRSTR1::MERTENS (yves) Fri Dec 20 1991 10:43

    
    
    
    
    I have just thaught the DECmcc course and I have some questions Without
    answers:
    
    -   What about a MACX terminal as user terminal in DECMCC ?
    -   The reference data of an entity is in DNS ,what's the attribute
    which contains this?
    -   Is the company BICC a strategic vendor?
    -   If you want to register an entity (phaseiv node ) as A class
        station,without DECNET started it will not register the entity
    (enable to communicate with target) is this normal,normally he should 
     recognize the ethernet hardware address?
    
    
    I need some inputs

1974.1I dont think soTOOK::MATTHEWSFri Dec 20 1991 14:318
    Bicc question. See the SVP note, I believe it was just updated.
    
    Unless it has changed in the last month, BICC is not a strategic
    vendor. We demonstrated some level of interoperability at Interop91
    but have not had an opportunity to formally test their products
    via our SNMP AM.

1974.2REGISTER STATION, include Alternate Address...CHRISB::BRIENENDECmcc Bridge|Station|SNMP Management.Mon Dec 23 1991 09:2023

 Did you supply both the Address and the Alternate Address in the REGISTER
 command?  The Ethernet AM should try ADDRESS is ALTERNATE ADDRESS fails to
 respond...

 Example command:

  MCC> REGISTER STATION fred ADDRESS 08-00-2b-01-02-03, -
                             ALTERNATE ADDRESS AA-00-04-00-FF-FF

 If you DID specify both addresses, could you describe what type of
 STATION you were attempting to REGISTER?  Some types of hardware don't
 respond to their address unless software is handling the request...
