OS Notes

Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3, tcpip.sys patch from NT hot fix after Service Pack 3

Network Notes

The DEC DEFPA-MB cards are dual attach station (DAS) FDDI over category 5 twisted pair.
No hubs were employed, each of the 4 networks is connected as a ring using both attachments.
Each network included one card in the SUT and two of the clients.
clients 1(prime) and 2 on 1st segment, clients 3 and 4 on 2nd, 5 and 6 on 3rd, 7 and 8 on 4th.

Other Notes
