HP9000 (UNIX systems) speak both 802.2 and Ethernet V2 encapsulation.  They can
communicate transparently with either protocol.  Nothing special is required to
make this work.

HP3000 (MPE systems) currently only speak 802.2 encapsulation.  A cisco box can
translate from this to Ethernet encapsulation.
