Hi, Does anyone know of any LAN analyzers for IEEE 802.4 Token Bus based networks ? Also, what are some of the important parameters that one should measure for IEEE 802.4 performance ? For those of you who actually run IEEE 802.4 based networks, what features would you like to see in a IEEE 802.4 LAN Analyzer ? I'm programming a simulation of IEEE 802.4 networks, and am now trying to define some performance parameters that should be measured, and want to make sure that I don't miss any of the important ones. If there is enough interest, I will summarize to the net. Thanks in advance for your help !
