 | | To forward a DDP packet to a directly connected node over a given medium, a router must know the hardware-specific address that corresponds to the destination nodeÕs 24-bit AppleTalk address. |
 | | If a response to a probe is received (i.e., another node has claimed the proposed address), the node repeats the process, i.e., it proposes a new address, and repeats the process until it succeeds in acquiring an unused address, or until all assignable addresses are exhausted. |
 | | Like IP and IPX, routers forward data packets from source nodes a zone name ÒinsideÓ to the group of nodes in network number 53 above, and ÒoutsideÓ to the group of end nodes network range 20:25 in the AppleTalkª network topology shown earlier.Names & Name Binding. |
