4435.0. "DB90FL rom V2.3 not support DA90 ?" by TKTVFS::KOBAYASHI_S (Seiki Kobayashi, Network support/JAPAN) Mon May 26 1997 06:20

Hello,

Has anyone seen the following behavior previously?

A customer has 15 DEChub90s and Multistack90s. Each DEChub90/Multistack90 has
1*DECagent90 and 1*DECbridge90FL and several DECrepeater90s. When using MCM 
V6.0a, he clicks DECbridge90FL on DECub90/Multiswitch90, he can't open 
a bridge summary window with "Failed to get IF interface" error in message box.

We reproduced the problem. It seems that if DECbridge90FL works with V2.3 rom 
then DECagent90 can't communicate with the DECbridge90FL (The DB90FL is seems
no reachable on DA90 community table). However if DECbridge90FL works with
V2.1 rom then DECagent90 can communicate with the DECbridge90FL.

Best regards,
Seiki.
