efb@suned1.Navy.MIL (Everett F Batey II) (04/12/90)
I am told there is a doc called the ethernet green book .. defines sizes, pieces, repeaters, times etc. for proper combining of the components of an ethernet. Can someone direct me to an anon-ftp equivalent of the care-and-feeding for a properly grown ethernet. Like max equal size segments, repeaters, fiber, transceiver or fiber tiers, max pieces. Need something beyond the DEC Networking guide .. we are getting slower and slower without any substantial apparent traffic volumes .. folks in our net have wild card mixes of BackBone, Transceiver, Thin, Fiber, Twisted, Multiports, Repeaters and Bridges .. in the worlds wildest topology .. both 802.3 protos from HPs and standard old ethernet packets. Any download source clues will be welcomed. /Ev/ -- + efb@suned1.nswses.Navy.MIL efb@elroy.JPL.Nasa.Gov efb@voodoo.bitnet + + efb@suned1.UUCP | Gold Coast Sun Users | Vta-SB-SLO DECUS | WA6CRE + + Statements and Opinions are MINE alone & NOT those of my US Employer +
