Abstract
An apparatus and method for an exclusionary network adapter connected between a network backbone and a local network segment selectively transfers data packets between the network backbone and the local segment. The exclusionary network adapter excludes all local traffic on the local segment from the network backbone but need not perform perfect general filtering from the network backbone to the local segment as in a network bridge. The exclusionary network adapter may include a host computer and disk drives to function as a file or disk server for devices on the local network segment in addition to transferring data packets between the network backbone and the local network segment.
