[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] ARP on FDDI

Kastenholz@MIT-MULTICS.ARPA (11/10/87)

Jim,

There is a rather simplistic solution to the 16 vs 48 bit FDDI address
problem - assign two physical hardware types to FDDI - one for 16 bit
addresses and one for 48 bit addresses.

This may violate some underlying deep philosophical intent of ARP, but
it looks like it should work.
