3146.0. "DECbridge and Multistack" by LISTIM::ULTRIX (Estne Finis, aut Initium Finis...?) Wed Jan 10 1996 14:56

    Hi
    
    	Sorry if it's a stupid question , but I don't know the answer.
    
    	We have a customer which has the new Multistack hub , he has
    a simple configuration with a DECbridge 90FL and 3 DECrepeater 90T.
    	He wants to do the "show repeater" command on the bridge and see
    the repeater , like he does on DEChub90.But no luck , he doesn't have
    any answer.
    	Is this command supposed to work , like in the DEChub ?
    
    	Thanks for your answers 
    
    	Carlos
    
    Note:Yes , all the managment cables are connected as in pages 3-8 or
    3-9 of the Instalattion and configuration.Yes the switches are OK.
    This customer is a previous collegue (Senior Engineer) which accept new
    challenges .... 

    Hi
    
    	My problem is :
    
    	I do a set host/mop <to_dec_bridge> , aferwords I do
    
    	show repetears .... (Nothing is shown)
    
    	Is this supposed to work on the multistack ? it works ok on the
    DEChub.
    
    	Thanks for your help

    More than one year later...
    
    We configured the DECbridge 90 as "agent" (switch positioned to "agent"
    instead of "bridge" position) and now it is able to see the repeaters
    
    Since this is an undocumented feature, can somebody tell me if this is
    the right way to support this kind of configuration?
