But really this should be separate module(s) for each protocol type. E.g.: +-----------+ | ng_iface | +-----------+ / | \ IPX / | IP \ AppleTalk ... _____/ | \_________________ ... | +----------------+ | ng_ip_ethernet | +--------------+ +----------------+ +----------------+ | ng_ipx_ether | | ARP | IP | ng_atalk_ether | +--------------+ | | + (EtherTalk) | | | | +----------------+ ARP (0x0800) | | IP (0x0800) | | | IPX (0x8137) +---------------+ AppleTalk (0x809B) ... ---------| ng_ether_mux |--------------- ... +---------------+ | | +-----------+ | ng_ether | +-----------+ -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
