RE: (usr-tc) Hello

Oh boo...it's kinda hard to justify resetting an ARC that terminates 240 connections for the sake of fixing one modem. Any fixes in sight, 3Com? Speaking of strange problems, one of my chassis (dual CT1, quads, NetServer) has a quad card in slot 8, on which modems 2 & 4 are constantly in some kind of errored state and won't answer calls. The telco reports dead air when they sieze the trunk. I've swapped the card out and sent it to 3Com who reported finding no problem with it (so I later juggled it in with one of my quad to DSP trade-up bundles...take THAT! heh), however, it would appear that the problem still exists after having replaced the card with a known good working card. Is it possible that the slot has gone bad? Any ideas on what might be going on here?

Is this the "modems go crazy in pairs" bug or something else? I have a chassis with 240 channels, on which one modem refuses to answer a call with pbGenericError as the reason.

I am building a chassis out of some spare parts and need a nic for a Netserver card. I think its the same as a NMC too. Could also use a fan tray. Please email me direct if you can assist.

Nope, not used at all in fact. After 2nd lockup, I busied out all the lines to that card, still locked up on me. Yet, in the office, it's just fine.

Ever seen that? Locks up within about an hour. Pulled it out of the production chassis it was in (3 DSP's, Quad's and Dual T1, only 1 T1 on it), put in our test chassis, no lockups half day. Other two DSP's work just fine no problems. Any ideas of where to start on this before I send it back to 3Com?

(usr-tc) Versa 6000 28.8 modem/diagnosis of strange modem problem
by Scott Trautman 15 Dec '99

15 Dec '99

Fellow has real problems getting on. Sometimes, no problem. No time of day or business pattern. What happens is the negotiation happens just fine, usual end of negotiation, but then just dead air. The connection is dead. Is there some timeout somewhere we're hitting on this modem negotiation? It's not hanging up the call; it's definitely negotiating. Doesn't appear to be any kind of phone line problem, or systematic problem. Will be trying a different external modem on his laptop to try that. Just wondering if anyone else had any hints or know anything about this modem in particular.

(usr-tc) Distributed TCM ?
by Robert von Bismarck 15 Dec '99

15 Dec '99

Hello, I will be implementing a lot of HiPer-based Chassis soon, and our 3Com rep has told me about something called DTCM (for distributed TCM) which should help a lot for configuring and managing lots of TC's. Has anyone ever seen / worked with this product ? Is it any good ? What kind of Machine do I need to run it on (I know it only runs on HP-UX and Solaris-Sparc) ? Thanks for any info, Robert
