There are several methods to encapsulate packets for transmission
locally or over the Internet:

- EtherType 0x0804
- IP protocol 0x10 (yours!)
- Unix domain socket
- UDP
- TLS over TCP/IP (preferred transport across Internet)

There is a bridge/router that understands all these, written by
professor Bj=C3=B6rn Victor.  Various computer hardware and emulators suppo=
rt
different encapsulations: real Lispms use Ethernet, an LMI Lambda
emulator uses IP, KLH10 and SIMH use the UDP method, and the PDP-10/X
FPGA uses a Unix socket.
