QUESTION: Has anyone used an IBM 8209 Token-Ring to Ethernet
bridge and had a Token-Ring workstation connect to a
server on the Ethernet (or visa-versa)? Can this be
done?
ANSWER: The 8209 Bridge is a incompatible with Novell. It is NOT
a bridge at all. It is a router and it specifically does
not route IPX/SPX packets. It is the only bridge out
there that does not route IPX. It does route TCP/IP, SNA,
and NetBIOS.
