Subject: Pre-2.15 Versions Routing With 50 or More Servers
Date: September 11, 1990
OS Version: 286

GENERAL
INFORMATION: If you are trying to bridge more than (or around) 50
file servers using internal bridging running NetWare
that is prior to NetWare v2.15, you will more than
likely start to loose your router tables and experience
problems with workstations not being able to log into
servers, or workstations not seeing some of the servers,
etc.
The reason is that prior to NetWare v2.15 we used memory
pool 3 to keep the tables in. Due to the limitation of
the size of that particular memory pool, we were limited
to the amount of internal bridging that could be done
without over filling and loosing part of the routing
tables. Starting with v2.15 we broke the tables up and
distributed them differently in memory. You should not
have this limitation with NetWare versions from v2.15 on.
