1201: Transmitting IP traffic over ARCNET networks.

HTML TXT PS PDF

This memo specifies a method of encapsulating Internet Protocol (IP) [1] and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) [2] datagrams for transmission across ARCNET [3] using the "ARCNET Packet Header Definition Standard" [4]. This memo offers a replacement for RFC 1051. RFC 1051 uses an ARCNET framing protocol which limits unfragmented IP packets to 508 octets [5].
