[comp.dcom.lans] Bridge/3Com broadband test equip

lrogers@dtrc.dt.navy.mil (Rogers) (09/07/90)

Hi,
	
	We are researching test equipment for our Bridge/3Com broadband
backbone.  I have been unable to determine what "standard" this system uses.  I
have seen a reference in the IB/1 manual to a 5 Mb/s CSMA/CD Bridge protocol.
What test equipment vendors support this protocol?
Is this a common protocol among broadband systems?
What difficult or recurring problems have you encountered with this system?
Finally, is there a 3Com mailing list?

Thanks in advance,
Larry
