---------------
As the documentation says, MSK supports Ethernet (DIX/Ethernet_II/
BlueBook) and SLIP Packet Drivers, as well as working directly over ODI
for these and other lan topologies. Be sure to use MSK 3.14 beta or later
(when there is a later) for TCP/IP over Arcnet ODI drivers due to an ODI
ambiguitity problem.
