RE: DLSw reachability; Ethernet MAC addresses

Dale,
It was requested in 2005 and closed in 2008. I've pinged the DE about this.
In 2005 they were all in agreement to add a [dec | hex] option to "sh ip
cache flow".

And I'm sure when Terry Slattery was enhancing IOS on a TRS-80 he was
thinking about larger screens as well. What size were TV's then anyway. I
think 25" was available, without fonts that would have been gigantic at
80x25.
