- Emulex makes a card that does ethertalk, LAT, TCP/IP (somewhat) and IPX
- (Netware) at the same time. It is sadly very weak in the TCP/IP field,
- it uses RARP to get a network address (others use BOOTP), and partly as
- a result thereof you can't set a default gateway or netmask. Haven't tried
- the LAT part though. We normally use HP cards, with TCP/IP.
