I am trying to find out what packet type of 8 is under XNS. I know that packet type of 1 is for routing, 2 is for echo, 3 is for error, 4 is for packet exchange, 5 is for sequenced packet and 16-31 are experimental, but I don't know what 8 is. The hardware that is producing a packet type of 8 is an Ungermann-Bass NIU-180 Model: 2281A (I have not taken the time to check to see if there are other XNS `devices' using type of 8). What is packet type of 8 used for? What is the format of the packet? Are there any other packet types that are used that I have not mentioned? If so, what are they and what are there packet formats? Thanks in advance for any information. -- Tait Cyrus (505) 277-0806 University of New Mexico Dept of Electrical & Computer Engineering Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131 e-mail: cyrus@hi.unm.edu or cyrus%hi.unm.edu@ariel.unm.edu
