I don't see why not.  It would happily encapsulate your IP traffic in
TokenTalk, and send it to the TokenTalk interface on your Gatorbox.

Oops.  No TokenTalk on Gatorboxes.  Or FastPaths.  Multigates?  Probably not,
but maybe there's a chance, someday?  Apple Internet Router?  Sorry, no IP.
Liaison?  Maybe; I dunno.

And my impression is that MacTCP <-> TokenTalk <-> LocalTalk <-> Gatorbox
won't cut it.  Any confirmations or denials?

Of course, MacTCP might not even talk to TokenTalk in the first place.
But even if it does, getting from TokenTalk to something real is going to
be a problem.

Does anyone out there know of a TokenTalk <-> IP gateway?
