Access to the network port of a Com-Server functioning
as a SLIP router can take place only from a computer
located in the same subnet. In the above example, this would
mean that access via Telnet, browser or ping to the Com-Ser-
ver in Ethernet 1 must be made from a computer also located
in Ethernet 1.
