There ought to be nothing special. Examine carefully the place where TR "has a crossing" to Eth. TR is using larger MTU (4200 bytes by default, max 17000+something). - IP packet reassembly might have problems on TSM server side (IP packets on 4200-byte TR frames will be fragmented to 1500-byte Eth frames). - Some of TR hosts might have larger (max) MTU than others. Try to isolate are errors originating from specific hosts. What is the device for "crossing" TR to Eth?
Zlatko Krastev IT Consultant Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Token Ring Network Hi Everybody, I experience a lot of TCPIP Errors while backups and archives are in progress. Most of the clients (os/2, 3.7.2.26) are connected via a token ring network which has a crossing to ethernet. The TSM Server has only an ethernet interface. Does anyone has experience with such an environment? Are there special values for the tcpip options using token ring (e.g tcpwindowsize, tcpbuffsize). Hints are welcome!
