[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] async tcp/ip?

howell@ecsvax.UUCP (Doc A. Howell) (02/22/89)

  Does anyone have a way to run TCP/IP over async RS232 lines? The
twisted pair is clean but it is too long to run ethernet. Any ideas?
Send me email or post to news if you think it worthy of such exposure.

     The public domain TCP/IP version  KA9Q has an async
driver. It uses the SLIP protocol (UNIX) for low level
data transmition. I have used it and it works pretty well.
The package can gateway IP traffic to ETHERNET and such.
