2160.0. "DR90T+, PC showing on wrong port" by CSOA1::WELLS () Fri Mar 31 1995 12:04

    HUBwatch on VMS V3.1.3
    Agent in DEChub 90 slot 8, BL05.01 V2.1.3
    DECrepeater 90T+ in slot 6, V1.0
    
    I am having similar problems as the person in note 1883 along with the
    following-
    
    A PC connected to port 3 has its address showing in HUBwatch on port 7.
    The PC has not been moved.  Why?
    
    Addresses for PCs connected to ports 1-2 and 4-7 are not showing up
    in HUBwatch at all (this sounds like the problem in 1883).
    
    Checks were made over a 30 minute period with no changes on the
    HUBwatch display.
    
    Thanks,
    Leland

    Leland,
    
        Was the PC now connected to port 3 ever connected to port 7? 
        The only explanations that I can think of short of a bug are:
    
        1) The PCs in question are not generating any network traffic
           through the repeater ports. This assumes that the PC showing
           up on port 7 was at one time connected to port 7 and was
           then generating network traffic.
    
        2) A [Refresh] was not done to the HUBwatch display. You mention
           that checks were done to the HUBwatch display, did this include
           doing a [Refresh]? 
    
        I tried this with the latest HUBwatch and DECagent 90 code and did
        not see a problem.
    
    Regards,
    Bob

    Thanks for the reply, Bob.  I won't be back on-site to try this for
    about 3 weeks.
