When going from Ethernet to Token ring media, DLSw+ automatically does
the bitswap, so that fact should get you to the bottom of this. I don't
know if that changed in newer code, but anything is possible.

The rule that goes around says always non-canonical with dlsw. I am not
sure, but I would say no, you wouldn't bit swap the already
non-canonical token ring mac. I have my doubts of course because of it
working both ways. Also, I don't think the bit-swapping operation you
did is correct. Maybe you just didn't want to finish it out ? I get
0200.080A.0880.
