Re: DLSW FST Ethernet to Ethernet

I think Local ack and RIF are 2 different things. Only TCP encap with RIF
pass-thru carries end to end RIF, whereas other encaps terminate RIF
locally. So, FST also terminates the RIF, but acks are end-to-end. Hope this
helps.

Thanks,
Srikanth.

I understand that FST is not Local Ack so require RIF for end to end
station. But ethernet doesn't have Ring number.
