IP Over FDDI (fddi)




Charter



Status: Concluded January, 1993 







Chair(s):







 Dave Katz 







Description of Working Group:



The IP over FDDI Working Group is chartered to create Internet



Standards for the use of the Internet Protocol and related protocols



on the Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) medium. This protocol



will provide support for the wide variety of FDDI configurations



(e.g., dual MAC stations) in such a way as to not constrain their



application, while maintaining the architectural philosophy of the



Internet protocol suite. The Group will maintain liaison with other



interested parties (e.g., ANSI ASC X3T9.5) to ensure technical



alignment with other standards.  This Group is specifically not



chartered to provide solutions to mixed media bridging problems.

Request for Comments:

  • RFC1188 A Proposed Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams over FDDI Networks (Draft Standard)
  • RFC1390 Transmission of IP and ARP over FDDI Networks (Standard)
