It very much depends on how the PCs are configured. If the PCs are using
NBT (NetBIOS over TCP) then the traffic will not be transported by DLSw -
which is what you said (it was using routing logic to send packets).
If the PCs are configured to send NetBIOS via NetBEUI then DLSw will
transport between remote segments.
