There are no alternatives to choose amongst, so you may omit the

Dan Lanciani may wish to amplify matters here. Basically ODIPKT is
relaying Token-Ring_SNAP frames to the application (Kermit). ODIPKT should
say this on its startup banner. Kermit understands Ethernet and SLIP frames
but not Token Ring. However, you may run Kermit *directly* over ODI with
Token-Ring_SNAP frames, but that makes life difficult without winpkt if
Windows is active (don't do it, or check the "lock application in memory"
box in Kermit's PIF).
If ODIPKT reports "class 1" (aka Ethernet II frames) then the problem
is probably in your TCP/IP setup. Class 3 is Token-Ring_SNAP.
