Thanks, yes, I'm starting to understand your trace now. In an iptrace file,
there's a large field, 16 bytes, which describes the interface. We
never had any use for before for the other datalink types, but for ATM
there appears to be needed information in that field, letting us know
what appears in the traced ATM "packet" (LANE, RFC1483-LLC-encapsulation,
etc.). The one thing I cannot figure out is which flag designates
the type of emulated LAN you're running. What types of emulated
LANs do you run, ethernet, token-ring, or both? It sure would be
nice if you ran both, so I could see how iptrace flags the e-lan type.

thanks,
