AppleTalk Routers that Support TCP/IP



I want to install twenty Macintosh IIfx systems on an Ethernet. I don't want to
connect my Macintosh IIfx directly to the Ethernet backbone. Now, I am looking
for a router that can route Ethernet to Ethernet. Apple's Internet Router is
no solution because I need TCP/IP routing.

Do you know of a TCP/IP and AppleTalk router (hardware or software) that can
route between two Ethernets, not only LocalTalk to EtherTalk.

There are a couple of alternatives. The NRC (Network Resources) router is a
TCP/IP and AppleTalk combined router that runs on a Macintosh II class system.
They also offer hardware based stand-alone routers that perform the same
function. Cisco Systems and ACC (Advanced Computer Communications) both offer
Ethernet-to-Ethernet routers that support both AppleTalk and TCP/IP.
