5044.0. "BRIDGE_AM 1.3 & LANBRIDGE 150 Firmware" by KERNEL::WARDJO () Wed May 12 1993 14:39

    Are there any firmware level restrictions for lanbridge 150 and the
    bridge AM.
    
    I have a customer who has two problems with Bridge AM 1.3:-
    
    1. A "show bridge Bridge_name all status" on one bridge gives "device
    broken - operational Firmware failure"
    
    I,ve looked in the spd etc but can't find any mention of minimum
    firmware levels for lanbridge 150. The bridge has S/W version 1.3 and
    rev d01.
    
    Can anyone suggest an explanation?
    
    2. Another lanbridge 150 registration fails with "communication with
    the target has been interupted".
    
    A test bridge is successful - the rev on this one is E101.
    
    Any help appreciated,
    
    
    Regards,

    I'm not sure if there are any firmware restrictions with the
    LANbridge 150, but I'll send your note to the product maintaininer.

5044.2Firmware resolved - Registration?KERNEL::WARDJOThu May 13 1993 12:4715
    Bob,
    
    Thanks for the response,
    
    I think I've resolved the firmware problem - there is an upgrade but
    the situation should not effect the operation of the bridge.
    
    Can anyone explain what would cause the registration failure - The
    customer disconnected the registered bridge and they could then
    register the other bridge.
    
    Seems odd to me.
