(usr-tc) x2/v90 enable on 16MB NMC
OK, got a little problem here. Had a chassis with old 4MB NMC that got replaced with 16NMC chassis (not Hiper NMC). Some of the quads remained on the chassis so as a sum result I lost v90 support on these cards. I must confess that I know little about 3com policy about added cost features - having been involved mainly with HDSPs till now. Can somebody bring me up to date with that? 1. What must be done to enable v90 on quads with 16MB NMC? or 2. Where can I get 16MB NMC feature key to enable v90 if this is as that simple?

It's kinda of a hassle. You have to contact 3com and buy one last time I looked. They generate it from the serial number on the nmc. All you need to do then is use tcm under feature enable menuand type thenumberin. The hassle is getting it from 3com. It would be easier to tranfer the memory to the old 4 meg card and you wouldn't have to bother. -----Original Message----- From: owner-usr-tc@lists.xmission.com [mailto:owner-usr-tc@lists.xmission.com]On Behalf Of Kalev Nurklik Sent: Thursday, April 06, 2000 3:26 AM To: usr-tc@lists.xmission.com Subject: (usr-tc) x2/v90 enable on 16MB NMC OK, got a little problem here.

A feature enable key must be entered into the NMC.
2. Where can I get 16MB NMC feature key to enable v90 if this is as that simple?
You can pay a few thousand dollars to 3Com, then they will gladly give you v.90 on your quads. Brian

Thus spake Brian

Generally, if you ask nicely (or, alternatively, raise enough of a stink) and you're doing it because of an upgrade, my understanding is that they'll generate it for you without charging. Don't know who's in charge of that anymore, but talk to your sales rep. and they can usually get it done for you. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
