Just a little related detail. This is true unless you bring IPX into the
mix. Don't forget that one of the ways to run multiple IPX L2
encapsulations is with subinterfaces which can be done on regular 10bT.

You need some type of encapsulation such as ISL to create sub-interfaces. It
also needs to be 100 MB.
