2443.0. "Managing 16 port repeater" by OTOOA::MMCGREGOR (Malcolm McGregor) Wed Jun 28 1995 19:39

    I recall reading in an earlier note that the new 16 port Decrepeater
    module will not be manageable in a 90 hub with a DECbridge 90 as th bus
    master.  Does this mean that each 90 hub will require a DECagent 90 to
    manage the 16 port repeater.

2443.1make DECagent 90 the Bus MasterNAC::FORRESTThu Jun 29 1995 20:118
    Yes, until we get the Bus Master code into the DECrepeater 90TS and FS.
    Then you will have a choice of Bus Masters, but the DECbridge 90  will
    not be one of them.
    
    We are recommending against use of the DECbridge 90 as Bus Master for 
    new hub sales. This change in strategy will be part of the Stackables 
    announcement.
