Sure makes it confusing on a token ring when you can have both SRB and TB
traffic....

I guess that's when you'd use the following :

dlsw port-list ether0 token0

eh?

  I assume that you can setup VTP on the 3920, but have never had to use it
to use multiple TrC/BRFs.

  Don't know. Never used this mode even when doing DLSW and multiple
TokenRing
Vlans.

So you might want to do this if you want to bridge IP traffic from say the
tokenring
to maybe a ethernet.
