Re: CA archeology request

["Lazarski, Krzysztof Z. via Tech-talk" <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

We are running MVME EPICS IOC version 3.13.1, and caget, caput and cau, compiled with Linux architecture with version 3.13.9.

May be able to, at some point.

We're still running 3.13.8 but the IOCs are at the summit and  we're largely still working from home.

Would someone with access to a client and IOC running Base 3.13.x be
willing to create some packet captures?

If so, please contact me.  This will probably be no more than running
some caget/put/monitor while wireshark (or similar) is capturing.

Background...

There is an ongoing discussion about Channel Access protocol version
history involving two people who have no experience of that history.
Which leads to a certain amount of uncertainty.

I think it would be a good idea to warehouse some examples of older
CA protocol versions for which we claim support (currently we think
>=3.13.0).


My archive of CA/PVA captures so far.  Currently all Base >=3.14.12.
I'd like to add some older samples.
