Yup, that's what I meant(IP only). I tried it once. Down in flames.
Thanks for finally coming out with concurrent briging/routing, that
solves part of the problem. Integrated bridging/routing will do
what I needed to, which was to bridge IP from two remote single-PC
(56K serial) sites to our 7000. I ended up having to buy a router
for each site.
