RE: DLSw reachability; Ethernet MAC addresses

Dale,

I thought I was dating myself by saying this stuff was on my CCIE test. I
had never even really used a computer until the end of 1998, so you made me
feel better ;)

Both fair comments, but how hard would it be for Cisco to implement a
command line parameter in IOS to switch the output format behaviour?

I think the last time I was forced to use an 80x25 terminal was when I
was running Telix in DOS to connect to a dial-up BBS in 1994 :-)
