- Hmm. Multicast? I'm running an AmigaLink network (floppy based, ~ acrnet
- speeds) and it does not support multicast yet I'm running both Envoy and
- Amitcp (4.3).
-
- Basically you have two choices to make it work, both documented in the
- AmiTCP manual (P 40-41 section 6.3). One is to set the `FILTER' option for
- each device in the AmiTCP:db/interfaces file. The other method is to set
- Envoy's IP Type and ARP Type to something different for what AmiTCP uses.
- I used 17999 & 18000. The former method is a little faster.
