Attached is a partical summary of the various AppleTalk routes that are out there. I've obtained this info from magazine articles, net postings, product brochures, etc. I'm mainly interested in the DDP-IP (AppleTalk-Gateway) featues that popular products such as the Fastpath and GatorBox provide. It seems like just a short time ago (1 year ?) the Fastpath and the GatorBox were the only two contenders in this arena. However, recently there have been a number of other candidates for this (nitch ?) market. Even though my main interest is the DDP-IP Gateway feature, I am also interested in the various AppleTalk routers that are out there. So, I specifically ask: 1.) Are there AppleTalk routers that I missed? 2.) Would someone please fill in the ? marks. 3.) If I am wrong about the DDP-IP gateway support, please let me know. Thanks. --Tony Olejnik Network Engineer University of Pennsylvania Data Communications and Computing Services Suite 221A 3401 Walnut Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104-6228 (215) 898-9408 tony@scotty.dccs.upenn.edu Manfacturer Product Software DDP-IP G/W feature? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1.)
