John,
WRS changed one of their API's between 5.3 and 5.4 and so I will need
to back patch the changes I have made in EPICS 3.14 for vxWorks 5.4
into 3.13.2. It may also be possible to install the original vxWorks
IP kernel into vxWorks 5.4?
I have had some problems with the new WRS Tornado II SENS networking
system seizing up during stress testing. I don't know if this is
caused directly by the switch to SENS or by the new driver for our
10/100 PCI Ethernet interface card that is included with SENS in
Tornado II. We will need to run my stress test against some other
Tornado II system that does not use our 10/100 PCI Ethernet card.
