MacIP (Kip Forwarding) Options

When hosts using AppleTalk (typically those using LocalTalk) arenot
directly connected to an IP network (usually an ethernet), they must
use a MacIP (AppleTalk-IP) gateway. Such a service is provided by
AppleTalk models of the Netopia ISDN Routers. A MacIP gateway
converts network traffic into the correct format for AppleTalk or IP,
depending on the traffic's destination. The MacIP gateway can also
distribute IP addresses to AppleTalk computers on the network.
Note: Macintosh computers that have LocalTalk or EtherTalk selected
in the MacTCP control panel, or "AppleTalk (MacIP)" selected in the
TCP/IP control panel, must use the MacIP gateway to communicate
with the Internet or any other IP network. Users should point their
MacTCP or TCP/IP control panel to look in the LocalTalk zone for the
MacIP server. Macintosh computers that have Ethernet selected in
the MacTCP or TCP/IP control panel can do their own AppleTalk-IP
conversions.
Setting up MacIP involves choosing MacIP dynamic address serving
and then configuring that type. KIP forwarding is simply a method for
distributing IP addresses to AppleTalk clients.
