Milo,
	Below is a "reprint" of the original message that Don sent. I
interpret the question as assigning DIFFERENT subnet addresses to the
same physical interface, which is possible. If he means assigning the
SAME subnet number to different interfaces then that can't be done
(according to the spec). i.e. you can't have 128.1.1.x on one
interface and 128.1.1.y on another. Maybe Don can clarify.

Subject: Config. Question

Suppose I want to put a Proten box between, amoung other things,
two subnets on the same net (the subnet is defined by the 3rd byte):

		     128.1.1
			 |
		       Proteon
			 |
	 --------------------------------  128.1.2
	   |          |          |
	bridge      bridge    bridge
	   |          |          |
       128.1.3     128.1.4    128.1.5

Is it possible to configure the Proteon to route traffic to subnets
3, 4, and 5 out the 128.1.2 interface?
Thanks for any help on this.
