3456.0. "Isolating repeaters in DEChub 90" by NETRIX::"Janusz.Sikora@estcarp.rpw.dec.com" (Janusz Sikora) Tue Apr 16 1996 13:52

I have a short question concerninig DEChub 90 with DECbridge 90 FL.
My client has a DEChub 90 with a DECbridge 90 FL and DECrepeaters 90 T and
he wants to create some independents LAN segments within the hub.
Can I use the "set port 0 disable" command of DECbridge to isolate some 
DECrepeaters? Is it legal configuration and can be used for a long period?
Can I propose this solution to my client?

Thanks in advance.

    The DEChub 90 cannot be split into several LAN segments - it only
    supports a single thinwire across the entire backplane, and any modules
    in the DEChub 90 cannot be disconnected from this thinwire.
