Since bridging functionality operates below the network layer, it is transparent to
any layer 3 protocol. PCs or workstations can use Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP)/Internet Protocol (IP), Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX)/Internetwork
Packet Exchange (IPX), AppleTalk, or any other protocol suite. This implies that
any protocol currently being used for applications can be transported to remote
destinations and vice versa.
Any type of machine (PC, MAC, or Sun workstation) can be connected via
Ethernet to the ADSL modem.

The bridge database can accommodate as many as 256 entries simultaneously.
Assume a sample configuration with four remote ports and one local port
(Ethernet interface): If all systems are evenly distributed over all the ports, you
