In this example on the bottom are some notes. Because this exam is allowing
ethernet stations to go to token rings stations ,when you do the icanreach,
per bullet 4, you need to do bitswapping (take the real token ring mac, and
swap it so the ethernet stations can use it.

In the example below, both sides are ethernet, so no bitswapping is needed.
Bit swapping is only needed to allow ethernet to go to tokenring. For token
ring to go to ethernet you needed SR/TLB.

And another one?? I don't think we need to bit swap.

No, you do not need to do the bit swap. Since both sides are ethernet, and
they have supplied the mac that they want you to reach, then you just need
to configure the icanreach with the exact mac that they supplied.

If it's ethernet to ethernet cisco's own example does not show the bit
swap.

Hi;
I was asked to configure an Ethernet LAN to Ethernet LAN SNA connection with
DLSW running over a Frame Relay WAN yesterday. One of the requirements was
to get one router to announce in the capabilities exchange that it can reach
a specified MAC address. (1111.2222.3333)
I configured the following:
Dlsw icanreach 1111.2222.3333
I then had a thought that I needed to bit swap as the host was Ethernet
connected. Can somebody please advise on whether the bit swap is required in
the dlsw icanreach command for Ethernet connected devices??
Kind regards,
