Can anyone tell me what an Ethernet Type Code of "8137" is? I see this type code come from Novell servers and Netware workstations so I assume it has something to do with Advanced Netware. Tom Culver Appalachian State University Culvertl@conrad.appstate.edu Culvertl@appstate.bitnet (704)262-6269

8137 is the type for Novell networks running over ethernet (using Ethernet_II
packets vs. 802.3 packets). I believe it was first used to get Netware VMS
to work and became a defacto type when they started using packet drivers.
