2240.0. "Bridge 610 -- Sho Bridge hangs in Iconic map" by ZUR01::SCHNEIDERR () Fri Jan 31 1992 11:56

Hello,

A customer of us has the following problem:

He does the command  
SHOW BRIDGE XXX PROTOCOLL DATABASE ETHERNET ENTRY XX-XX ALL CHAR

This works fine in the command line interface, but in the iconic map interface 
the popup window hangs and nothing is displayed. It happens only with
DECbridge 610.

I have no DECbridge 610, so I can't test it. Does somebody know about a problem
is able to try it out?

I tried it out with a DECbridge 500 and it words fine !!!

Bob,

He runs VMS V5.4-2. The BRIDGE AM has the Version V1.2.0. Have you tried it out
with a DEDCbridge 610?

Bridge AM V1.2.0 (part of DECmcc ELM AM kit) layered on DECmcc V1.1.

Did the DEcbridge 610 *exist* when Bridge AM V1.2.0 shipped?

In  .3 is a very good question. IN the SPD is written that Bridge 6XX are 
supported.
I tried it out by the customer.  If you do the command

"Show bridge .... protocol database entry xx-xx "

It works fine on an entry that is set to disposition forward and fine on an 
entry with a block on a port, too. (on the bridge 610 you can set a forwarding
map and set a port to block). The  command on an entry with "blocked port" shows
you a hole forwarding map.

If you use the iconic map the command works on a entry that is set to disposition
forward but not on a entry that is set to block port.

The customer set the block port filter with a command more or less like this:

"set bridge ... prot database ethern entry ....blocl port 3" (I haven't seen it,
he told me that) 


An other thing I saw was the command 

"delete bridge .. prot datab ethern entry ...."  

then the message "Execution of requested operation failed at target".Failed at 
target looks to me that the bridge hasen't understand the command or in
other words the DECmcc sends a wrong command to the bridge.

Having a QAR on file ensures that the problem will be tracked.
Developers have been asked to post a reply when the answer a QAR
from a note.  However, a patch is unlikely unless it is a high
priority problem.

You can request a QAR account for yourself if you want to track the
problem more closely.
