| 716.1 | WHEN routing? WHICH routing? | ALFETA::MAURICIO | Fertile Pectus | Fri May 06 1994 15:01 | 5 | 
|  |     Can anybody please give us an expected availability date for the
    routing functionality? And which protocols this router will be able to
    route?

|  |     The first routing upgrade will support IP.  See 933 for a contact
    to get further info.
    
    By the way, the info glossy I mentioned in the preceding note is now
    available for the DECbridge 900MX.

| 716.3 | Bradner's Harvard lab test results | LEVERS::ANIL |  | Wed May 18 1994 20:18 | 15 | 
|  |     Scott Bradner tested the DECbridge 900MX and published the results at
    Interop+Networld a couple weeks back.  I have extracted the more
    important figures below from a detailed report.  Note that the "0"
    latency is Scott's observed results on his test setup; there is of course
    a very small finite latency.
    Maximum lossless throughput  - 62,488 pps
    Ethernet to Ethernet latency - 0
    Ethernet to FDDI latency     - 70 microseconds
    IP Fragmentation             - Max rate (ie, the Ethernet is saturated)
    Also, it forwards at wire-speed - 60 Mbps which is theoretical max for
    a 6-Enet to FDDI bridge.

| 716.4 | Online copy of Scott Bradner report? | SEDPCW::ESPH01::evans_ma | Keep on smilin' | Wed Sep 28 1994 07:58 | 8 | 
|  | Anil,
At Network Academy last week, reference was made to Scott Bradner's report. 
Is this on the Easynet somewhere that I can copy. Indeed, is there an update 
available from the May '94 testing. Specifically I'm interested in 
positioning against Cabletron,
Regards, Martin

|  |     Scott Bradner's report on the DB900MX is on:
    
    machine: hsdndev.harvard.edu
    directory: /pub/ndtl/results/vendors/Digital/DECbridge_900MX
    
    You could access it from the Web with the URL
    ftp://hsdndev.harvard.edu/pub/ndtl/results/vendors/Digital/DECbridge_900MX/
    
    Since the name has changed we may have to go back to him, however
    the performance will be the same.  We will probably take all 3 switch
    products to his lab at some point.

|  | >> machine: hsdndev.harvard.edu
>> directory: /pub/ndtl/results/vendors/Digital/DECbridge_900MX
The path is no longer valid. I FTP'd to the machine two days ago,
and vendors is no longer a directory, but a text file.

    now on the Web (more in 1512.0):

| 716.9 | vms pointer | KAOFS::R_YURKIW | reward those who bring bad news!! | Mon Oct 03 1994 10:20 | 8 | 
|  |     Can someone give me a pointer to a VMS directory that I can access.
    Unfortunately we aren't allowed to play on the internet here in Canada
    yet so I need a valid VMS pointer for these docs.... 
    
    
    much appreciated.
