2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Model 2124/2130 MicroBridge is an Ethernet Bridge that pro-
vides LAN extension when used in conjunction with a V.24 or EIA-530
DCE device, such as a DSU/CSU, NTU, or router. The Model 2124/2130
performs transparent Ethernet bridging and functions at the MAC level,
thus is transparent to higher level protocols such as TCP/IP, DECnet,
NETBIOS, and IPX network protocols. Only broadcast, multicast, or
frames set up for peered LAN are forwarded. The Model 2124/2130 is
802.3 Ethernet compliant and supports PPP Bridging Control Protocol
(RFC 1638) on the DTE side.
