704.0. "FDDI modelling data for PEA0" by NZOV02::DUDSON () Wed May 21 1997 02:08

    Hi,
    	I'm doing a study of an Alpha4100 and Alpha2100 using an FDDI
    	ring to an HS221 FDDI array controller.
    	The .cpd files were collected for all four systems (two Alpha1000
    	on the HS221) using DECPS V2.2-51.
    	When I intergrate the data the PEA0 device shows up as unknown,
    	using ECP040 (april97) kit,and asks for an ethernet device.
    	The Alpha4100 and Alpha2100 both have a DEFPA for the FDDI and
    	DE435 for the ethernet.
    	If I change the unknown PEA0 for the DE435 the NI device on the
    	configuration saturates as we are pulling some 4000Kbyte/sec
    	through the FDDI to the disks.
    	
    	Is there a way to change the PEA0 device to a DEFPA or do I
    	have to tweak the .merg files for the four machines.
    	(if I have to tweak the .merg files, what is the format of
    	the line?)
    
    Thanks in advance, Paul
