IEEE Standards for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks: Supplement to Integrated Services (IS) LAN Interface at the Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical (PHY) Layers: Specification of IsLAN16-T
Amendment by IEEE, 02/27/1996
Full Description
Scope
Globally networked multimedia applications impose distinct quality of service (QOS) requirements on the local area network (LAN) infrastructure. These applications, which integrate video, audio, and data services, allow for real-time interactive communication between peer entities, requiring the network to provide essential QOS attributes (i.e., guaranteed bandwidth, delay and delay variation, latency, and reliability).Furthermore, to enhance the workera??s productivity in the global workplace, the LAN has to provide for interoperability with the wide area network (WAN).
Abstract
Amendment Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn.The architecture, frame structure, service specifications, Physical (PHY) Layer, management, and signalling of the ISLAN16-T interface are defined. The relationship of the ISLAN16-T network to the ISO/IEC 8802-3 network is also defined.
