3.6.1 ARP Translation
The ARP translation options are intended to compensate for any likely
implementation of IP's ARP on 802.5 Token Rings. The possibilities for
option are the following:
Off – no special ARP translation to be performed
Bitswap1 – embedded MAC addresses for ARP packets with hardware
type 1 (Ethernet) will be bit swapped (this applies to all ARP packets
received by the port, and to all ARP packets to be transmitted by the
port).
Bitswap6 – embedded MAC addresses for ARP packets with hardware
type 6 (IEEE 802) will be bit swapped (this applies to all ARP packets
received by the port, and to all ARP packets to be transmitted by the
port).
Bitswap61 – both type 1 and type 6 ARP packets will be bit swapped.
Oneto6 – incoming type 6 ARP packets will be changed to type 1 and
outgoing type 1 ARP packets will be changed to type 6, both without
bit swapping.
