layer 2 bridge for packet drivers (turns a PC into a switch)
Zusammenfassung
This bridge belongs to the class of Self Learning Transparent bridges. You can use any Ethernet cards (or a mix of cards from different vendors) for this bridge. All you need to have is the appropriate packet drivers for these cards. Packet drivers for most of the ethernet cards are in public domain and can be obtained from crynwr.com. This bridge can be set up using a PC or AT (hard disk is not necessary, a floppy drive is sufficient) running MSDOS ver 3.0 or higher. This is not a spanning tree bridge and hence cannot detect loops in network paths.
