914.0. "NDUplus EISA/FDDI, netbind hangs!!" by ZPOVC::RAMARAJ () Wed Apr 20 1994 15:08

    The NDUplus diskette used with the etherworks card(depca.dos) work
    fine, on DECpc.
    
    When all the neccessary changes are done for EISA/FDDI card(DEFEA),
    up to dllndis works ok.  But netbind hangs the pc?
    The PC is compaq server(pentium).
    
    The eisa/config utility has been run and the DEFEA driver has been 
    added to the system config.  
    Booting is ok, 
    defea.dos load ok,
    protocol manager is loaded ok, 
    dllndis is ok.
    Only NETBIND hangs and the PC has to be reset.
    
    Has anyone seen this problem?

914.1DIFFERENT TOOLS TO UPGRADE EISADELNI::ROUNDSMon Apr 25 1994 20:2857

Raj,
	The tool that is used on the EISA card for upgrading the firmware is
called DECblast.  This is distributed with the diskettes that ship with the
module.  The reason that DECndu is not tested with the EISA is because there
were multiple drivers and operatring system  supported, each requiring
special work and testing.  Instead there is a loacl utility, DECblast, that is
used to do the same thing.

Another tool that ships with the adapter is DEClma - local management agent.
This is for configuring, assessing status and diagnosing problems via MIB
objects.

Call if you still have questions,
sharon
