2 DLSW questions.

I just need a double check on these from one of the more knowledgeable DLSW
people.

First scenario:

Token ______ R1 _______Serial______ R2 _____ Ethernet segment
 Ring

I do not believe translational bridging is necessary for connectivity
between systems on the Ethernet and Token Ring segments. Is this correct.

Second scenario:

                                                      Ethernet
                                                            |
                                                            |
Token _____R1______Serial______R2______Serial______R3______ Ethernet
 Ring |
                                                            |
                                                        Token
                                                         Ring

DLSW peers between R1 and R2, and between R2 and R3 are sufficient to
provide full connectivity between the Token Ring on R1 and the Ethernet on
R3, only if translational bridging is configured on R2. Without
translational bridging on R2 only Ethernet to Ethernet, and Token Ring to
Token Ring communications is possible. Is this correct?

Thank You
