Snap is used on the IBM Token Ring in the IBM implementation of PC/IP. See RFC-990 "Assigned Numbers", page 36, section on IEEE numbers of interest for a spec. There may also be an RFC on SNAP itself and/or a later issue of "Assigned Numbers". Hope this is a helpful start. /joe ------------------------------ Joseph A.
