Later versions probably did.  Hmmm.... I once had a copy of that
somewhere, and one of my clients still has a Bay Networks 5000 chassis
with several 32-port terminal server blades which are re-badged xylogics
machines....  Nortel probably still care about the license on the code,
but I can at least look at it and see what its capabilities are.

Having seen many kinds of milking machines, and having used one kind for
cattle, that's just way too much imagery for my mind to cope with!
