Unix Backbone
Excuse my ignorance, being relatively new at this stuff..
Is it possible that Unix could operate as a backbone server provider to a campus LAN? If so, could UNIX act as the gateway server to the WAN, but provide internet connection to other sub-LAN's which used another bus protocol? (say via Routers).
Also is UNIX compatible with the Gigabit ethernet technology, and would specific protocol software be necessary for operate on a 1000Base-T backbone?

NAME
protocols - Defines the Internet protocols used on the local host
SYNOPSIS
/etc/protocols
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/protocols file contains information about the known protocols used in the DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) Inter-
net. Each protocol is represented by a single line in the protocols file. Each entry is of the form: Name Number Aliases
The fields contain the following information: Official Internet protocol name. Protocol number. Unofficial names used for the protocol.
Items on a line are separated by one or more spaces or tab characters. Comments begin with the # (number sign), and routines that search
the protocols file do not interpret characters from the beginning of a comment to the end of the line. A protocol name can contain any
printable character except a field delimiter, newline character, or comment character.
The lines in the file appear as follows: # # Internet (IP) protocols # ip 0 IP # internet protocol, pseudo protocol number
icmp 1 ICMP # internet control message protocol igmp 2 IGMP # internet group management protocol ggp 3 GGP
# gateway-gateway protocol tcp 6 TCP # transmission control protocol egp 8 EGP # exterior gateway protocol pup
12 PUP # PARC universal packet protocol udp 17 UDP # user datagram protocol hmp 20 HMP # host monitoring
protocol rdp 27 RDP # "reliable datagram" protocol
