[comp.sys.mac.comm] Router for MACs

ariel@bimacs.BITNET (Ariel J. Frank) (04/26/91)

Hello Mac/Net land. We are organizing a few MAC labs now. We want to
tie them into the world via an Ethernet backbone (locally and
further).  There are software/hardware routers (any opinions?).
Regarding Hard routers - Shiva has Fastpath (a former Kinetics
product?) and their own Ethergate. Anyone have a comparison table
between them? What are the important differences? Any info will be
welcome. Any better alternatives? Ariel.
