It is my understanding that you need a router on a mixed Phase 1/2 net that has the capability to understand both Phase 1 and 2. Phase 1 nodes are made to live in separate zones than Phase 2 nodes; the router handles the necessary "translation." The AppleTalk Internet Router does this; Kinetics offers something similar for the FP4. Is anyone out there using EtherTalk 2.0? If so, are you willing to share the experiences you had when switching from Phase 1 to Phase 2? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stephan Somogyi MacUserLabs@cup.portal.com NetWorkShop Coord. or MacUser ...{apple|uunet|sun}!cup.portal.com!MacUserLabs The MacUser NetWorkShop - home of the LocalTalk backbone Any opinions expressed above are mine.
