1734.0. "How can I tell if the DECbridge 90 has latest firmware?" by TENNIS::KAM (Kam USDS (714)261-4133 (DTN 535) IVO) Tue Nov 29 1994 13:32

    Is this DECbridge 90 at the last firmware revision?  
    What is the difference between the V1.14 and FPROM V3.1?

1734.1	You are current	ROGER::GAUDET	Because the Earth is 2/3 water	`Tue Nov 29 1994 15:19`	5
	Yes, it is at the latest firmware level. V1.14 is the ROM code version. The FPROM (Flash Programmable ROM) version of V3.1 is the latest downline loadable firmware available. ...Roger...
1734.2	DB90 T1.9 ROM Upgrade?	CLEON::KULL		`Wed Nov 30 1994 16:16`	16
	I remote consoled into my old DB90 and got this. Do I have to get a rom chip to get to V1.14 from T1.9?? And where do I get is? What is the order number? Once I get to v1.4 h/w ROM I guess I can download to FPROM V3.1??? Can I?

	I have to ask. Where did you get this bridge? It really sounds like an engineering prototype. Neither the ROM nor the FPROM versions were officially released. FYI, I have a bridge with MAC address 08-00-2B-1D-00-00 and it has V1.14 ROM code. I don't know how you ended up with T1.9! And T1.0 FPROM code...amazing! ...Roger...
