I guess you could do a setup like that.... However, anymore, virtually any device speaking IPX will also speak IP (i.e. all of our Novell servers run dual stacks IP and IPX as well as all PCs run both IPX and IP and all of our networked printers do both as well).... kinda silly, but that's the way most places that run IPX are (they run both)... having said that, it would be nearly impossible (if not impossible) to separate the IP and IPX traffic without the use of a router since a Layer 2 switch would be useless to help do this.....
Does that sound right? Makes good sense to me, but right now I think anything would..... I'm outta Cisco-land for tonght... gotta stop those dreams of troubleshooting frame and firewall problems.... geez Mike W.
