In contrast to the IPX-based implementation described below, packet
captures seem to reveal that NCP DOES rely on a transport layer when using
IP as a network layer mechanism.

Subject: RE: What frame format used by TCP/IP? [7:25924]
TCP/IP tells the Ethernet driver what kind of frame type to use and 99.99%
percent of TCP/IP implementations tell the driver to use Ethernet II, which
is the frame format that has Dest Src Type. This is also known as arpa in
the Cisco world.
Is this what you were looking for, though? Or were you looking for a
comparison of IP with IPX and a comparison of SPX with TCP, which I could
write lots about too. ;-)
One main difference between SPX and TCP, by the way, is that SPX is not
used much. It's used by RCONSOLE for remote administration and some SNA
gateways. Some printing services may use it. But most printing, file
sharing, etc. uses NetWare Core Protocol (NCP) which runs directly above
IPX.
TCP, on the other hand, plays a major role in it stack. Many protocols run
above TCP, including FTP, HTTP, Telnet, SMTP, POP, LDAP, BGP, and others.
