According to the DLSW+ Support Matrix -

1.) FST works with Ethernet, Frame, ATM and TokenCrap
;)

2.) Direct Encap supports Ethernet & TokenCrap

3.) TCP seems to support everything.

IMHO - you don't have to worry about TokenCrap anymore
for CCIE lab.

If you need this for work, I'd recommend you open a
TAC case so Cisco can give you an official answer. But
to me it seems quite clear in the DLSW+ Support
Matrix.

This other document, where is it? You've only quoted
not shown me the URL.

Cheers,
Sage
