4341.0. "VNSwitch EAs w/ FDDI Bridge Tunnel ... EF's Crash" by PRMS00::copras1_port11.cop.dec.com::cascio (Steve Cascio, PRMS00::cascio) Mon Apr 07 1997 23:18
I installed a pair of back to back VNSwitch EA�s & EF�s in a pair of
hubs today & did not get very far. The default configuration, as
installed, set up an Ethernet bridge tunnel between the two EA�s.
Since the end systems are FDDI based (Connected to the FDDI
Concentrators) I attempted to change the Ethernet Bridge tunnel
(i/f #28) to an FDDI bridge tunnel. The EAs accepted the change
just fine, but about 20 seconds after they initialized both
EF�s crashed. The EF�s reinit and then immediately crash again.
Removing the fiber between the EAs allowed the EFs to init w/o
crashing. Plug the fiber back in ... crash loop all over again.
What am I doing wrong/what am I missing?
Steve
