3680.0. "latest firmware revision needed" by COLA1::COLNWS::STICHTERNATH () Thu Jul 04 1996 11:25

    Hi together,
    
    i have some questions concerning HUBwatch Versions and Firmware
    revision-levels.
    
    1. where can i get the latest Firmware-Rev. for all HUB-Products ?
    Probably anyone has a file and can send it to me. Probably the Versions
    shipped with clear vision are the newest. I tried to find the dcffile
    of clear-vision, but i could'nt find it.
    
    2. are there any problems to run HUBwatch 4.1 with
    Firmwarereleases of HUB-Products witch are newer as the ones shipped
    with the Firmware-Kit 4.1 ?
    
    3. does anyone know when HUBwatch Vers. 5.0 for ULTRIX will be released ?
    
    
    thanks in advance 
    
    Volker

No, but do not run HUBwatch 4.1 and 5.0 concurrently.

HUBwatch for ULTRIX was discontinued at least a year ago.
HUBwatch for Digital Unix, HP-UX, and IBM's AIX are still shipping.
Contact Jack NAC::Forrest, the product manager, for ship dates for V5.
3680.2How does the firmware match up ?MSDOA::REEDJohn Reed @CBO = Network ServicesThu Jul 11 1996 19:209
    Hello.
    
    I assume that the new firmware (v5.x?) cannot be used on any hubs still
    being managed by older versions of HUBwatch?
    
    Or is it just that the newer ClearVISN stuff cannot be used on older
    modules without upgrading them ?
