I am having problems getting MCC to receive events from DECnis. Running DECmcc V1.3 on VMS V5.5-1 (DECnet address 5.505) with extensions (Wave I). I have no problem getting events to pop up in the operator log, but have been unsucessful in getting the MCC outbound stream into an "ON CONNECTED" state. Below is the DECnis outbound stream for the operator log - %DNS-E-INVALIDNAME, Invalid name Sink Object = %DNS-E-INVALIDNAME, Invalid name Sink Node = Sink End User = Number = 82 Sink Address = {{{%X0113}, {DNA$ProtID$SessCtlV2 Number = 82}, {DNA$ProtID$NSP} , {DNA$ProtID$RoutingV3 49::00-05:AA-00-04-00-F9-15:20}}} and then the one for the DECmcc - %DNS-E-INVALIDNAME, Invalid name Sink Object = %DNS-E-INVALIDNAME, Invalid name Sink Node = Sink End User = Name = MCC_EVL_SINK Sink Address = {{{%X0113}, {DNA$ProtID$SessCtlV2 Name = MCC_EVL_SINK}, {DNA$ProtID$NSP}, {DNA$ProtID$RoutingV3 49::00-04:AA-00-04-00-F9-15:20}}} The MCC_EVL_SINK process is up and running, the operator log is full of events from the DECnis, the filtering on the DECnis is setup the same for both outbound streams. Any ideas ?? I checked all the info in the release notes, but wasn't sure with regards to the need for a proper NET$ identifier!! Is this documented anywhere, what is this on about? Cheers, Louis

5385.2 | %x0152 doesn't work | SNOC01::MISNETWORK | MCC=My Constant Confusion | Tue Jul 27 1993 23:42 | 6 |
Tried %x0152 in the sink address, but still no go. The stream goes as far as "ON CONNECTING" but never connects, on the MCC host, I never see the link try and come up. Any more ideas ?? Cheers, Louis | |||||
5385.3 | Typo in NSAP | MARVIN::COBB | Graham R. Cobb, Internetworking, REO2-G/G9, 830-3917 | Fri Jul 30 1993 07:26 | 11 |
Re: .1. Although using %X0152 is correct (and %X0113 is technically wrong), that value is ignored. Re: .0. The NSAP is wrong. Carefully compare the NSAPs for the two outbound streams given in .0! The destination node from the ID portion of the NSAP (which is the same in both cases) is 5.505. SO, the local area must be 00-05. It is correct in the one which is working but wrong in the one which isn't working. Graham | |||||

Somebody shoot me. We changed the DECnet address on this DECmcc workstation, and I thought I was extra careful in making sure any hardcoded addresses were changed, but somehow I missed this NSAP, even though I changed the other outbound stream. Thanks for your response. Cheers, Louis |
