1502.0. "? current FDDI issues?" by LEZAH::ROCHE () Thu Nov 17 1994 14:40

    
    I'm taking a grad course in Data Comm - an area I knew little about
    beforehand.  I'm doing a research paper on FDDI and high speed LAN
    technologies.  I'm currently submerging myself in books and articles
    on the subjects.  The focus of the paper should be development or
    issues which are current (within the past 2 years).  In my searchings
    I have not found many recent articles.
    
    But I wonder whether that is partially because I need to know what
    the issues are to look for them effectively.
    
    If would appreciate some ideas for current issues from those who 
    already know the technology - 
    
    
    thanks,
    mary

    Re: .0-
    
    	How about researching Full Duplex FDDI and its relevance on
    building non-routed high speed networks (i.e. GIGAswitch)? 
    
    	Or/and the dilemna of Novell 802.3 "raw mode" frames and their .
    relationship to FDDI implementations i.e. translation methods to make 
    them legal FDDI format or toss them...
