[comp.dcom.sys.cisco] Problems with bridging...

ssw@cica.cica.indiana.edu (Steve Wallace) (01/29/91)

We seen some bridging problems on a few routers running:

GS Software (GS2-BR), Version 8.2(1)
Copyright (c) 1986-1990 by cisco Systems, Inc.
Compiled Mon 10-Dec-90 13:12 by mlb

Novell clients can't see servers the other side of the router.
We are NOT routing novell, just bridging:

bridge 1 protocol dec
interface Ethernet 0
ip address 129.79.3.110 255.255.255.0
ip broadcast-address 129.79.3.255
appletalk address 328.110
appletalk zone Ethertalk
bridge-group 1
!
interface Ethernet 1
ip address 129.79.110.254 255.255.255.0
ip broadcast-address 129.79.110.255
appletalk address 110.228
appletalk zone Union Ethertalk
bridge-group 1

Clearing the bridge table doesn't help, reloading the router
does.

Other relevent info:

MCI 0, controller type 1.1, microcode version 1.5
  96 Kbytes of main memory, 4 Kbytes cache memory, 10 system TX
buffers
  Restarts: 2 line down, 0 hung output, 0 controller error
  Interface 0 is Ethernet0, station address 0000.0C00.2F81
    26 total RX buffers, 24 buffer TX queue limit
    Transmitter delay is 0 microseconds
  Interface 2 is Ethernet1, station address 0000.0C00.2F82
    26 total RX buffers, 24 buffer TX queue limit
    Transmitter delay is 0 microseconds

Is this a known problem?  Any cures?
