2564.0. "ProbeWatch SLIP and Duplicte IP address" by BACHUS::VANDENBERGHE () Wed Jul 26 1995 11:24

	Hi,
	It is mee again with 3 questions:
	
	1. As already asked previously can someone explain CLEARLY what can be
	done with the SLIP interface:
	What mean MANAGE, MONITOR as mentionned in the documentation.
	Is it as for the DEChub, to use ProbeWatch to 
        monitor a Ethernet Segment but via the SLIP port or is the SLIP port    
        only there to send TRAP by activating a modem (+Hayes command).

	2. Did someone really manage to start the SLIP interface (even with 	
	version 2.6 of the firmware which should support a partial modem 	
	connection using the Patwhork SLIP or Chameleon IP stack, I couldn't
	make that connection).
	Should I have to specify in the agent_options for interface 2 slip_port 
	on and slip_ip on ? etc..
	In one word if it works how should people have to configured it.

	3. Did someone be able to detect duplicate IP address, using f/w 2.6 I 	
	can now list host on IP or DECnet address.
	I can also configure the probe to send trap, but by working with 2 	
	systems having the same IP address (same network as for the probe) with 
	a domain installed for IP NET, I was not able to receive a trap (DUPIP 	
	file well configured etc..). 
	
	Thanks in advance,
	Robert
