ANSI/IEEE Std 802.3-1985, ISO/DIS 8802/3 does not have a type field in the MAC header. Referencing section 3.2 in that handy-dandy book published by the IEEE and distributed by John Wiley & Sons. Of course, you may be referring to the Ethernet type field. As far as I know, ISO does not officially support Ethernet, and I don't know if the Ethernet gods have assigned a type number to the ISO layer 3 protocol. > >===================================================================== >John Brezak >Apollo Computer > >Ph #: 617 256-6600 x7771 -- Skip Addison {lll-crg, decwrl, ihnp4}!amdcad!cae780!ubvax!skip or sun!amd!ubvax!skip
