- pardon this dumb question, but could someone 1) give the official
- definition of an appletalk half-router and 2) give a full explanation of
- why Shiva uses it so much -- especially in the LanRover/L. What I want
- to know is what we gain by doing ARAP with the half-router instead of
- the multi-node junk that the Mac version of ARA does.
-
- Please reply by email (mlbarrow@mit.edu) and I will summarize.
-
- thx,
