Organization: ITESO university. To: FreeBSD-hackers@freebsd.org Date: Sat, 20 Jul 1996 12:32:42 CST Subject: FDDI and unknown packet type Priority: normal X-mailer: Pegasus Mail v3.1 (R1a) Message-ID: <2C4976F31@mexicano.gdl.iteso.mx> Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, we've bought an FDDI card (pci) for our cache/web server, and plan to connect it to our campus backbone, but as soon as it is configured, it starts complaining about "fddi_input: unknown protocol 0x8137" (yes, it's a mixed IPX/IP environment, netware is using ETHERNET_SNAP as it's frame type.) I thought this wouldn't be a problem, but the card does not seem to find any of the other systems on the ring. I'm beggining to dig in the code, but would like to know if someone has seen this before, or wants to check this kind of environment. This is FreeBSD-2.1.5, and the card is properly detected. Thank you. Hector Gonzalez Jaime. Iteso, Guadalajara, Mexico. cacho@mexicano.gdl.iteso.mx
