1558.0. "DEChub 900, DECbridge 900 MX, DECconcentrator 900 MX configuration question" by FRAIS::ORCHIS::MAASS (Information, that's all I need...) Wed Oct 12 1994 14:13

Hi there :-),

I'm currently checking a customer network design for an outsourcing project here
in Germany, and I'd like to know if the following network and hub configuration
is valid with the currently shipping modules:




Hub 1:			Hub 2:			Hub 3:

1 DECbridge 900 MX	1 DECbridge 900 MX	1 DECbridge 900 MX
1 DECserver 900 TM	2 DECconcentrator 900	1 DECserver 900 TM
1 DECrepeater 90 C	1 DECrepeater 90 C	1 DECrepeater 90 C
			1 DECrepeater 90 FA

The FDDI DAS connections would run as follows:

Hub 1:			 Hub 2:			     Hub 3:

DECbridge 900 MX - A-B - DECconcentrator 900
		   B-A	 DECconcentrator 900
			 DECbridge 900 MX    - A-B - DECbridge 900 MX
					       B-A

The connections in Hub 2 would run as DAS connections (A-B, B-A) on the
backplane (4 FDDI connections = 8 channels).

Is this configuration OK? Am I missing something? Required firmware levels or
other stuff perhaps?

Please answer as soon as you can, the project is tight on schedule and I will be
out of the office next week.


Thank you very much in advance
