remote LANs or single workstations to a central LAN over a wide variety of WAN
interfaces and services. Connection may be made via ISDN, Frame Relay, leased
or dialup lines.
IP routing is supported over PPP, SLIP, CSLIP or Frame Relay (RFC 1490). IPX can
be routed over PPP or Frame Relay (RFC 1490). Bridge mode is available if the
