We have a net full of fastpath 3's and fastpath 4's, with an Appletalk
Bridge (Shiva) connected as shown:
==================== Ethernet ===================================
| | |
| | |
FastPath X Fastpath 3 Fastpath 4
|
| (localtalk)
|
SHIVA
NetBridge
|
| ZONEC
The Shiva Bridge publishes its own zone. (call it ZONEC) This zone
is not known to the atalkad daemon that manages all of the fastpaths.
If Fastpath X is a fastpath 3, then all of the other 3's acquire ZONEC,
but none of the 4's know about it.
If Fastpath X is a fastpath 4, then all of the other 4's acquire ZONEC,
but none of the 3's know about it.
Each Fastpath seems to share ZONEC with only its own kind!
Fastpath X was made a core gateway for each test.
(The 3's run KIP and the 4's run K-STAR.)
Is there a explanation for this incompatibility??
