I think this is about forcing network address (zone, cable-range and node
address to be fixed and not discovered every time from the network. Here
65280.5 is the node address of the linux box. This address might change
after reboot. This may happen if you are not using -seed. You can't use
seed here (only one interface). On the mac side you can "fix" it in the
AppleTalk configuration in the advanced mode and lock it in the
administrator mode. But how to "fix" it on the linux side on the machine
with only one interface (where you can't use seed) is still a question.
