I am about to connect several RTs to an ethernet, and need some
advice about ether cards.  Does anyone have any experience with
cards other than the IBM (actually U-B)?  I'm curious about some
of these new (cheaper) cards from the likes of Western Digital and
Everex - though it's not clear that software for the RT is 
available.

Thanks...
John

If you're running AIX on your RT, you have to run the U-B PC-NIC card,
I know of no other cards the AIX-RT TCP/IP supports. The devices command
and the loadable POST and VRM support is all for the PC-NIC card.
