Chapter 1 Introduction
Asanté
Talk is designed to allow Apple Macintosh systems using the
on-board Apple Ethernet adapter to communicate with existing Lo-
calTalk devices such as printers and other Macintosh computers.
The Asanté
Talk connects a LocalTalk network (or printer) and an
Ethernet network (or your computer). After you have installed it on
both networks, devices on the two networks will be able to commu-
nicate through the Asanté
Talk .
