Message-ID: Date: 8 Jan 91 18:30:10 GMT Sender: news@sol.AER.COM Distribution: comp.dcom.lans Organization: Atmospheric Environmental Research Inc., Cambridge, MA USA Lines: 22 We have several 3COM Bridge CS210 terminal servers, which we must currently configure via a separate, special, serial port connection to each one. Updating our ethernet thus takes an awful long time. I understand that these can be accessed and configured via ethernet -- if I remember, you had to buy a rather expensive pc-at class box from 3COM Bridge to do this. I'd like to access and reconfigure my CS210's from our Unix machines (Sun 3's, an Alliant). This should be possible, right, just squirt the right packets at them? Is there such a beast? If you can steer me to it, I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you. If there is an FAQ or archive for this group, I'd also appreciate pointers to them. Thanks in advance. -- George Planansky Atmospheric & Environmental Research 840 Memorial Drive, Cambridge, MA 02139 gplanansky@aer.com (617) 547-6207 fax: 547-6479
