Well, the ANSI committee (say slow) is currently working on a simplex ring proposal for both FDDI-2 and FDDI. Don't know when that will come, but at least someone is working on it. If you need more (technical) info regarding the simplex ring operation. Please attend the meeting or give us a call. -- | Michael Yip Email: my@berlioz.nsc.com | National Semiconductor Corp Voice: (408) 721-5148 | | Of course, this is my own opinion!
