We have a couple of AlphaStations which we would like to connect together on
a private ethernet link in addition to their current link on the "public
network". We're thinking of going with a Fast Ethernet wire between them.
Can anybody recommend PCI-Fast Ethernet cards for the Alphas? Will any old
card do or do we need cards for which DEC has drivers?
The reason behind this is that we believe NSF transfers between the 2
Alphastations are tying up the network. We hope this will alleviate the
problem by cross mounting the disks via the private link.
I would also like to hear recommendations and hints on how to do this.
Gotchas are particularly appreciated.
Thanks
