716.1 | WHEN routing? WHICH routing? | ALFETA::MAURICIO | Fertile Pectus | Fri May 06 1994 16:01 | 5 |
| Can anybody please give us an expected availability date for the
routing functionality? And which protocols this router will be able to
route?

| The first routing upgrade will support IP. See 933 for a contact
to get further info.
By the way, the info glossy I mentioned in the preceding note is now
available for the DECbridge 900MX.

716.3 | Bradner's Harvard lab test results | LEVERS::ANIL | | Wed May 18 1994 21:18 | 15 |
| Scott Bradner tested the DECbridge 900MX and published the results at
Interop+Networld a couple weeks back. I have extracted the more
important figures below from a detailed report. Note that the "0"
latency is Scott's observed results on his test setup; there is of course
a very small finite latency.
Maximum lossless throughput - 62,488 pps
Ethernet to Ethernet latency - 0
Ethernet to FDDI latency - 70 microseconds
IP Fragmentation - Max rate (ie, the Ethernet is saturated)
Also, it forwards at wire-speed - 60 Mbps which is theoretical max for
a 6-Enet to FDDI bridge.

716.4 | Online copy of Scott Bradner report? | SEDPCW::ESPH01::evans_ma | Keep on smilin' | Wed Sep 28 1994 08:58 | 8 |
| Anil,
At Network Academy last week, reference was made to Scott Bradner's report.
Is this on the Easynet somewhere that I can copy. Indeed, is there an update
available from the May '94 testing. Specifically I'm interested in
positioning against Cabletron,
Regards, Martin

| Scott Bradner's report on the DB900MX is on:
machine: hsdndev.harvard.edu
directory: /pub/ndtl/results/vendors/Digital/DECbridge_900MX
You could access it from the Web with the URL
ftp://hsdndev.harvard.edu/pub/ndtl/results/vendors/Digital/DECbridge_900MX/
Since the name has changed we may have to go back to him, however
the performance will be the same. We will probably take all 3 switch
products to his lab at some point.

>> directory: /pub/ndtl/results/vendors/Digital/DECbridge_900MX
The path is no longer valid. I FTP'd to the machine two days ago,
and vendors is no longer a directory, but a text file.

now on the Web (more in 1512.0):

716.9 | vms pointer | KAOFS::R_YURKIW | reward those who bring bad news!! | Mon Oct 03 1994 11:20 | 8 |
| Can someone give me a pointer to a VMS directory that I can access.
Unfortunately we aren't allowed to play on the internet here in Canada
yet so I need a valid VMS pointer for these docs....
much appreciated.
