3313.0. "DR900fp loses conn to virtual LANs after firware upgrade" by KAOT01::WATTERS () Tue Feb 27 1996 10:31

Problem using Hubloader to upgrade firmware on DECrepeater 900fp.

If the customer has the DR900fp connected to 5 virtual LANs or more, upon
doing a firmware upgrade, he loses all connectivity to the virtual LANs and
has to reconfigure them. The firmware upgrade itself is successful.
On the other hand, it works fine for me; ie.connectivity to all 5 virtual 
LANs still exists.

Dif'rnces:

Customer -> Hubwatch 4.1.2	Hub900 4.1.0	DR900fp 2.0.0
Me	 -> Hubwatch x4.0.18	Hub900 4.0.2	DR900fp 1.2.0


I'm trying the notesfile 1st to see if anybody experienced this problem.
If not, I'll just have to upgrade my own lab.

Thanks.

    Just a guess, could it have something to do with the ThinWire problem
    discussed in notes 3306, and 2989 ?

3313.2Is there a fix, none in 2989PTOJJD::DANZAKPittsburgher �Sun Mar 03 1996 07:4712
    John (I'd thought that I'd sent mail asking you about this too...)
    
    My demo unit has been "upgraded" and I've got the thinwire connect
    blues.
    
    I've not seen nor heard of a the fix (intimated in 2989) being out. 
    
    IS THERE A FIX?  WHERE IS IT?
    
    Thanks,
