  33.  
  34. There are two options.    The first is the setup CAP to speak EtherTalk 2
  35. and configure the cisco's to route EtherTalk 2 among all their ports.
  36. The second is to setup CAP to speak IPTalk and configure the FastPath's
  37. to speak IPTalk to the CAP host.
  38.  
  39. Which of the two options you should use depends very much on your
  40. local situation.
  41.  
  42. >Do my CAP applications have to run on the same network as the FastPath?
  43.  
  44. Not necessarily.  Although it would be much simpler if that's the case.
  45.  
  46. >Could I possibly 'tunnel' AppleTalk packets from net#1020 to net#1010?
  47.  
  48. Yes.
