131.0. "Download problem V3.0" by WOTVAX::HATTOS (I think, Therefore I'm paid less) Sat Jan 23 1993 06:36

    Hi,
    
    I have a problem downloading the latest bridge firmware. I do not have
    an Ultrix system available to but in note 51.4 it was stated that a VMS
    load node will work. I thought it might too, so I tried it.
    
    Well all I get is :-
    
    Node Volatile Characteristics as of 23-JAN-1993 11:37:08
    
    Remote node =   13.10 (WGB)
    
    Service circuit          = MNA-0
    Hardware address         = 08-00-2B-24-1C-86
    Load file                = WGB_FLASH_V30.EXE
    
    
    NCP>load node wgb
    %NCP-W-LINCOM, Line communication error
    
    %SYSTEM-F-EXQUOTA, exceeded quota
    
    And a nice OPCOM message :-
    
    %%%%%%%%%%%  OPCOM  23-JAN-1993 11:39:41.10  %%%%%%%%%%%
    Message from user DECNET on WARBLY
    DECnet event 0.7, aborted service request
    From node 41.234 (WARBLY), 23-JAN-1993 11:39:40.85
    Circuit MNA-0, Line open error, Line communication error
    %SYSTEM-F-EXQUOTA, exceeded quota
    Node = 13.10 (WGB), Ethernet address = 08-00-2B-24-1C-86
    
    
    Any ideas guys?
    
    Ta,

Usually a problem with PQL_ parameters. Try increasing
PQL_DBYTLM.

Hello Dave,

You shouldn't copy the V3.0 SW to a customer site. It has a major bug with 
spanning tree in. Tha actual Version is V3.1.
The problem is that nobody knows whether you can give the version to a customer 
or not. The V3.1 has an increase of functions, so the customer has to buy. That 
is the latest news I have from our local marketing.

131.4Was 3.0 positioned as enhancement or a fix?GLDOA::MORRISONDaveThu Mar 18 1993 11:063
    Was 3.0 positioned to have been a possible freebee - not being an
    enhancement? Would they have been able to get it for free even if not
    under support? Thanks.
131.5pointer for 3.0 bridge codeEMDS::SEAVERBill Seaver, HUBwatch MktgMon Apr 12 1993 21:589
    3.0 and 3.1 can be given to your customer.  The cost is for media
    duplication and processing.  3.0 never had an upgrade kit.  the 3.1
    version is in the making.  It is available from:
    
V3.0 of bridge software can be found on DIRT::DENMA$SSB:

V3.1 can be found on ?????
(don't have a pointer to 3.1 at the moment.

    See note 193.3 for the proper source (if the file protection problem
    has been sorted otherwise you can copy the FLASH.TSK image V3.1 I have 
    from :-
    
    	QUAD::DISK$USER1:[DB90_V31]FLASH.TSK;8
