Hi,

After the announcement of the ipx code a few people enquired about supporting
it on 802.3 also.

I am thinking about implementing it. The biggest problem to me seems to
be selecting between ETHERNET_II and 802.3 form the userlevel. I thought
of using IFF_LINK(0,1,2) so that it would be easy to specify with ifconfig.
But then I went to look in /sys/i386/isa and all of them are used by the
network device drivers. :-(

So, do anybody have a good idea on how to specify it from userlevel, so
that it can be different for each interface?

John
