Yes, sorry, I should have described what I am trying to achieve.
Basically a few virtual nodes talking DECnet, AppleTalk and
NetBIOS/NetBEUI protocols (no IP), plugged into some virtual
switch or router that can setup a GRE tunnel to a real CISCO
switch on the other end, which also has DECnet and AppleTalk nodes
on it.<br>
<br>
I came across this just now based on the pointers received so far
and will research this:

Thanks for the information; keep it coming!<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

Ooops, I'm sorry, I missed the word "switch" in the OP's
message.<br>
Thank you for the clarification.<br>
