3517.0. "Maximum communities for a DECagent90?" by NETRIX::"sf@uvo.dec.com" (Steven Freke) Wed May 08 1996 08:50

Folks
	Am I right in believing that the maximum number of communities that you
are able to set for a DECagent 90 is only three? Or have I done something wrong?
I was unable to create any more, and when I tried to delete one of the 
communities it di not allow me to do it. After I factory reset the agent it all
appeared to work ok.

Any ideas?

3517.1Failing DECagent, bet your money.BARNA::DSMAILWed May 08 1996 10:2718
    
    Last week I installed/configured a huge Hubwatch controlled network.
    My susprise was when I discoverd that since firmware 3.0 of DECagent
    the number of modules it could manage had been reduced from 64 to 48.
    
    But the number of communities I set up were more than three, I
    configured 15 HUB90 with a couple of DECagent90 and a DECbridge90 in
    the rest of the hubs, the number of communities per agent were 6 or 7.
    
    If you're running 3.0 or 3.1 of DECagent90 I would suspect of a failing
    DECagent90 not allowing to set up more than 3 communities.
    
    If you're running an unknown -for me- greater revision you should check
    if the number of communities has been reduced.I don't think so.
