Do we need the "bridge 1 bitswap-layer3-addresses" on Ethernet
interfaces which are glued to DLSw+ and have remote peers with
Token-Ring LANS? How about Ethernet LANS?
Do we bit swap the MAC on Ethernet resources being advertised via
ICANREACH? If the clients are on remote Ethernets? Remote Token-Rings?
Sorry if this has been answered allready in other posts.
