AppleTalk Routing Overview
AppleTalk Phase I was originally designed for local work groups. AppleTalk Phase II
extends the number of nodes in an internetwork to over 16 million and the number of
zones per port to 254. The Cajun switch supports both AppleTalk Phase I and Phase II.
However, the translation from AppleTalk Phase I to Phase II is not supported.
The Cajun switch version 4.0 software supports AppleTalk routing for packets destined
across VLANs (inter-VLAN) using Layer 3 but for intra-VLAN traffic, Layer 2 switching is
supported. The Cajun switch supports AppleTalk over Ethernet only.
Ethernet versions supported:
Ethernet SNAP
Ethernet II
The switch supports the following AppleTalk protocols:
AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol (AARP)
Routing Table Maintenance Protocol (RTMP)
Name-Binding Protocol (NBP)
AppleTalk Echo Protocol (AEP)
