1611.0. "AppleTalk V1 frames and DECswitch900ef" by 54831::VANDENBERG_R () Sat Mar 04 1995 08:10

    Hi,
    Small question, what happens with Appletalk V1 translation on
    our DECswitch900ef, I see no entry as for on our DECbridges600 to avoid
    problems with protocol type 80-f3 Ethernet frames.
     
    Is this done automatically ?
    
    Thanks,
    Robert

    I believe AppleTalk is part of the NTP (non translatable protocols)
    table in our bridges, and the workaround is enabled by default.  You
    should get confirmation from someone in the DEChub team, though.

1611.2All threeHUB DECswitch's handle Appletalk 1 pkts..NETCAD::BATTERSBYSun Mar 05 1995 13:395
     Appletalk 1 packet translation is handled in default mode, by
     all three HUB bridges (switches), DECswitch 900EF, DECswitch 900EE,
    and PEswitch 900TX.
