Bill -- Many versions of Comm. Manager routinely ignores the 'largest frame' field returned in explorers. As such, they will ignore an explorer or reply to it coming from the 'transparent bridged' (Ethernet) world and send frames that are too large to be sent to an ethernet. Fragmentation is not possible. You need to manually configure the PS/2s. There is a caveat to this effect in the 9.0 documentation on SR/TLB. -Joel Date: Fri, 21 Aug 92 09:19:00 EDT From: Bill Chen <chen@watsun.cc.columbia.edu> Hi, Has anyone tried cisco's source route translational bridging (between Ethernet and Token Ring) feature in 9.0.1? We have a PS/2 with OS/2 1.3 EE, using Comm Mgr and LU6.2 on ether trying to talk to a 3174 on a token ring with a AGS+ in between and there are a large number of "packets too large for translational bridging" errors. We had a tty session once but then it never worked again. I've been talking to cisco, but so far, not much help. Thanks. Bill Columbia University
