Read Bob Morgan's posting last week that appletalk phase 1 & 2 can
coexist, but I need more details.
I have a FastPath 4 running KSTAR 8.0. If I use the following
configuration in atalkad, does the field I have labelled "ETatnet" become
phase 1 or phase 2, or does the config I enter with FastPath Manager take
precedence somehow? If so, what should I enter? Or should I uncomment the first "E" line for this FastPath?
7000 H 18.70.2.33 IPT-70
#7001 E 18.70.2.33 18.70-zone #phase 1
7002 E 18.70.2.33 StudentCenter #EtherTalk phase 2
7012 K 18.70.2.33 MCC #mcc-kbox
I18.70.0.0 I18.70.0.160 #ipbroad ipname
L0 L0 #ipdebug ipfile
L0 L0 L0 L0 %n S0 #ipother ETatnet portstart
LX0 S0 S31 #flags ipstatic ipdynamic
%n %n #LTatnet IPTatnet zonea
I want the FastPaths to be able to operate in the event the atalkad server goes down, and only lose the AppleTalk connectivity across IP subnets. Exactly how much configuration should I enter with FastPath manager?
If I have several FastPaths on the same ethernet, should I have "E" and "H" lines with the same appletalk # and zone name pointing to each FastPath, or should I only enter one "E" and "H" for each ethernet?
Finally, what happens if I send a phase 2 packet to an old FastPath that only knows phase 1? I seem to have this working by having an Apple Internet Router running the upgrade utility on the same ethernet as the old FastPath.
