We've a DEUNA, Interlan's and 3Com's on two DELNIs (in cascade with one of them on Ethernet, which according to the specs is not allowed...) It's all working just fine. The Interlans are Eth.2 spec, the 3Coms are Eth.1. However, another 3Com, when connected to the DELNI, screws up the whole net. Put it on an Eth.1 transceiver and it's ok. Matter of luck... In general don't connect Eth.1 stuff to DELNIs. -- Piet Beertema, CWI, Amsterdam (piet@mcvax.UUCP)
