This is from the Netware 3.12 documentation regarding the default IPX
encapsulation
----------------------
Name Explanation
Ethernet 802.3
Assigns a Novell frame. Use on a network that is using only NetWare.
Ethernet_II
Assigns a unique packet header (type code). Use on networks connected to
DEC or to computers using the TCP/IP protocol.
Ethernet_802.2 (default)
Assigns the IEEE and OSI standard frame type.
Ethernet_SNAP
Use when the 802.2 SNAP extension is required.
------------------------------------------------------
Again, 3.11 was 802.3 (Novell) or Novell-Ether (Cisco) and 3.12 and higher
is 802.2 (Novell) and SAP (Cisco).
I have seen many times where Cisco states that 3.12 default is 802.3 (Ether)
and that is wrong.
