Check DLSW design guide on CCO. They clearly tells you
how conversion works. As per guide,
DLSW will do a conversion when frame is entered from
Tokenring. If other side is ethernet it will deliver
it. If other side is tokenring it will convert one
more time in non-canonical format so token ring
understand.
You only need manual conversion if you are doing any
MAC address filtering and havind ether-token DLSW
configuration.
