Just to correct any misunderstanding on the part of the casual reader who
might not look at the Cisco tac link, you CAN use DLSW on the same router,
it just won't be doing the translation for you. " Local DLSw between
Ethernet and Token Ring is not supported." is what the article says. You
can then connect all this translational-bridged mess to the remote networks
by DLSW+, which the Cisco article then shows you how to do.

You had me scared there, for a couple of minutes.
