Figure 8. Translation Bridging
Translation by the bridge consists of:
1. extraction of addressing information from the Ethernet header
2. incorporation of address information into a newly generated FDDI
MAC header
3. encapsulation of Ethernet data as specified in RFC 1088
4. FCS recalculation
5. addition of the FDDI MAC-level trailer
Standalone FDDI Rings
Network designers can take advantage of FDDI's high-speed capabilities
without an FDDI backbone in a network topology. In the absence of a ring, a
network designer can use the HP 27290A Router BR as a standalone FDDI
network, interconnecting a maximum of two SAS devices or a single DAS.
