DOCUMENT:Q109654 11-JAN-1994 [W_NT]
TITLE :TCP/IP Does Not Support 802.3 with SNAP
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Windows NT TCP/IP protocol only generates/responds to Digital Intel Xerox
(DIX) frames. It does not autosense DIX or 802.3 frames and respond
accordingly. Neither can it be set to use 802.3 with SNAP. This means that
when communicating across devices that bridge between differing MACs (Media
Access Controls), Windows NT relies on the bridge to sense and take care of
all conversions between frame formats.
Additional reference words: 3.10
