2545.0. "Cannot talk to DC900MX on OneHub MX" by RDGENG::GREID (Hail,Hail,Hail and Kill!) Thu Jul 20 1995 08:51

    
    On testing a DECconcentrator 900MX with a DECHub-One MX we have found
    that we cannot talk to the device through the console port of the One
    Hub module. The concentrator powers up ok and sits in "waiting to have
    it's IP address/gateway configured" mode, but nothing comes up on the
    console. We have tried it on one of the old 90w One Hubs and all is ok.
    Similarily we have used the OneHub MX on a DS900TM and all is ok
    including talking to the server through the console.
    
    Now it appears that there is only one flavour of the OneHub MX so why
    can we talk to a DECserver 900 but not a concentrator ?

2545.1It should always work.NETCAD::ARGOTue Jul 25 1995 15:145
    Hi Giles.  The setup port (also called the console) should always
    work.  Can you tell me what firmware version is running in the
    concentrator?

2545.2V2.8 fixed the non-reponsive console portRDGENG::GREIDHail,Hail,Hail and Kill!Thu Jul 27 1995 11:316
    Dennis,
    
    	This problem was fixed by upgrading the Concentrator from V2 to
    V2.8.
