AWAN Replacement Servers for DECserver 700 (16
port) and DECserver 900 (32 port)
AWAN Replacement Servers for DECserver 700 (16 port) and
DECserver 900 (32 port)
The AWAN 3886 DECserver 700-16 and DECserver 900 have been replaced by the
DECserver 716 and DECserver 732 due to end-of-life components in the 700-16 and
900. The new design is identical in delivery of features. Both the DECserver 732 and
DECserver 716 share the same design base.
Important differences between the replacement servers and the older servers are:
•
For both the DECserver 716 and DECserver 732, the power receptacle is now
positioned on the back panel (Figure 1-4 on page 1-9). If you have other AWAN
3886 servers rack mounted, this new design might affect your current cabling
configuration.
•
For the DECserver 732 model (32 ports), the DECHub ONE is obsolete and not
needed.
•
For both the DECserver 716 and DECserver 732, the latest version of DNAS 2.4 is
needed, and at minimum, the AWAN release gem217. For more information on
software versions and releases, see DECserver Network Access (DNAS) Version
2.4 (or later) and AWAN 6530 Code on page 1-21. (As of August 2002, the
minimum release (gem217) comes bundled with the CD ROM.) Note that you can
still use a downrev Access Server Loader (ASL), 2.2 or 2.3.
