Aucbvax.1887 fa.works utzoo!duke!decvax!ucbvax!lwa@mit-csr@mit-multics Tue Jun 23 17:23:18 1981 Networks for personal workstations I believe that all of the present Xerox workstations support only the old "Experimental" (3Mbaud) Ethernet. Apollos, on the other hand, use a 10Mbaud (I think) ring network, very similar to PR1ME's ring net. They have their own protocols, incompatible with anyone else (of course), and as far as I know there are no plans for gateways or internetworking support. -Larry Allen -------
