HI,

I need run fbsd 2.2.1 as ip (gated) + ipx (IPXrouted) router. My favourite
NetWare clients are using following ethernet frame types:  ethernet_II,
ethernet_802.2, ethernet_802.3 (novell terminology). Novell treats the
three frame types as entirely different logical networks. Even on the same
network interface. Three questions:

1) Does fbsd 2.2.1 know another frame than ethernet_II? 

2) May i use something like:
   ifconfig ep0 inet 193.84.224.1,
   ifconfig ep0 ipx 0x101 (0x101 is novell extern net address on some
	    NetWare server for ipx packet encapsulated in ethernet_II),
   ifconfig ep0 0x102 alias (ethernet_802.2),
   ifconfig ep0 0x103 alias (ethernet_802.3)?

3) Does IPXrouted correct route such case? Eg., three frames on the same 
   interface.
