Lionel,

Further to this, in the lab if they ask you to configure DLSW direct encaps
from ether to token ring you would need to use lite - correct?

                Jason,

                DLSw direct will have DLSw encapsulated directly over frame
relay or
                hdlc. It's only supported on token ring to token ring
connections. All
                keep alive go through end to end. it's not a reliable
transport. Queuing is
                also problem

                DLSw Lite rides over LLC2 as you mentioned. It provides
reliable transport
                and is not limited to token ring to token ring connections
(also supports
                ethernet, SDLC, QLLC end systems)

                configuration of both is very similar except you omit the
"pass-through"
                keyword for DLSw lite.

                Lionel
