Sure, as long as they don't want to talk to each other, you don't have
to change anything.  There is a field called the PROTOCOL address that
differentiates the different protcols in use.  The representative software
modules for the various protocols will either not see or reject packets
from the wrong protocol.  DECNET and IP use different numbers.
