[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] KA9Q Gateway ... one IP address??

EE599038@RVAX.CCIT.ARIZONA.EDU (Paul Charette) (03/03/90)

	Not to be nit-picky, but according to RFC1009 ("Requirements for
Internet Gateways") page 4, paragraph 2, "it [the gateway] has a physical
interface and an IP address on each of the connected networks."

	I am developing a Sytek to Ethernet Gateway based on KA9Q ... it
seems like giving the gateway one IP address is sufficient (and I don't
see how I could even give it another one).  It is going to be a transparent
gateway (ie - the Sytek LAN address space is a subnet of the Ethernet)




































	Is this acceptable?

Paul
