[comp.protocols.appletalk] FP4 rejecting CAP/UDP packets on MIPS. Help!

rmitchel@bbn.com (Rob Mitchell) (03/22/91)

Hi,

    I'm running latest version of CAP (6.0) on MIPS and Concurrent
    Computers MassComp machines.  The MassComps work fine.  The
    MIPS is sending out the packet, but there is no response from
    the FastPath 4 Gateway; as though it was rejecting the packet
    for one reason or another.

    I've written program which takes exact ethernet frame (captured
    by 'ethertrace' from MassComp) and sends it out of MIPS port
    and sure enough, a reply message is returned from the FastPath
    but, of course, to the MassComp not the MIPS.

    Does anybody out there have CAP running on MIPS platform?
    
    Does anybody know of any problems that CAP has running on MIPS?

    Does anybody have a MIPS and a FP4 on same ethernet?  Can you
    perform some UDP tests to see if the FP4 receives them and
    hopefully sends something back?

    Thanks in advance!!
