Netters,
Maybe there are still some SNA type folks that look at this list.
I'm having trouble converting a 9.6kb HDX line to 19.2 FDX. I've made
the required NCP changes, but it does not work. I've noticed in the
configuration guide that different line speeds/type have different
specify codes.  Does anybody know what these specify codes actually
mean? Is it just a way of accounting for scanner weight or are they
physically and/or electrically different?
I've never posted to this list before, if there is a better place
please let me know. As always, thanks for any assistance.

It was my experience that when we raised the speed of a single modem
within the bottom (lower) part of an A-LAB above 9.6 kbps that we lost
the use of top half (4 LICs).  The LAB contained ALL type 1 LIC.  As a
matter of fact, I believe that we actually had to disconnect the top 4
LICs in order to even make use of the higher speed.  (This was a test
configuration never implemented.)

Hi,

	I can think of a few thinags to check.

	1) On the LINE statement ADDRESS=(xxx,FULL) ==between NCP & Modem

	2) On the Line statement DUPLEX=FUll  >> this is for the telephone line

	3) On the PU DATMODE=FULL OR HALF   >>for Remote modem to remote PU
			All PU2's are half all PU4's are Full

	
	Also make sure you know whether teh Modem or the 3725/3174's are doing
	the clocking of line.

	Hope this helps!
