3697.0. "portswitch 900FP and security." by MARVEL::PATELA (Anup Patel - Lan Technologies, CSC U.K.) Wed Jul 10 1996 15:55

    Hello,
    
    This really is a long shot, however I need to illiminate the
    possibilities. 
    
    I have a customer who has a PORTSwitch 900FP, with h/w v2.0, RO=0.04
    ans s/w v2.0.0, installed in a HUB 900 backplane v4.1.0. Hubwatch for
    Windows v4.1.0 
    
    The reported problem is that the customer is unable to get the port
    security to function on v2.0.0. If the customer downgrades to v1.2.0,
    than it works!
    
    I tried to re-produce the problems in-house, and failed. The only 
    differences are 
    
    	a) I use Multichassis Manager with Windows 95,
    and b) the PORTswitch 900FP, which has h/w v1, RO=01.05 and s/w v2.0.0.
    
    
    So, here is the long shot, has anyone come across port (MAC) security
    issues on h/wv2.0, RO=0.04  or with HUBWATCH ?
    
    
    thanks in advance,
    
    Anup
