Unreferenced date March 2007 IEEE 802.6 is a standard governed by the American National Standards Institute ANSI for Metropolitan Area Networks MAN . It is an improvement of an older standard also created by ANSI which used the Fiber distributed data interface FDDI network structure. The FDDI based standard failed due to its expensive implementation and lack of compatibility with current local area network LAN standards. The IEEE 802.6 standard uses the Distributed queue dual bus network Distributed Queue Dual Bus DQDB network form. This form supports 150 Mbit s transfer rates. It consists of two unconnected unidirectional buses. DQDB is rated for a maximum of 160 km before significant signal degradation over fiberoptic cable with an optical wavelength of 1310 nm. This standard has also failed, mostly for the same reasons that the FDDI standard failed. Most MANs now use Synchronous optical networking Synchronous Optical Network SONET or Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM network designs, with recent designs using native Ethernet or Multiprotocol Label Switching MPLS .

expert subject date March 2011 A grid network is a kind of computer network consisting of a number of computer systems connected in a grid topology. In a regular grid topology, each node in the network is connected with two neighbors along one or more dimension s. If the network is one dimensional, and the chain of nodes is connected to form a circular loop, the resulting topology is known as a ring. Network systems such as Fiber distributed data interface FDDI use two counter rotating token passing rings to achieve high reliability and performance. In general, when an n dimensional grid network is connected circularly in more than one dimension, the resulting network topology is a torus , and the network is called toroidal . When the number of nodes along each dimension of a toroidal network is 2, the resulting network is called a hypercube . A parallel computing cluster or multi core processor is often connected in regular interconnection network such as a de Bruijn graph , ref http www.era.lib.ed.ac.uk bitstream 1842 860 1 Spadavecchia thesis.pdf A Network based Asynchronous Architecture for Cryptographic Devices by Ljiljana Spadavecchia 2005. section 5.6.1.2 De Bruijn graphs , and section 5.6.2.2 Randomised routing in de Bruijn graphs . ref a hypercube graph , a hypertree network , a fat tree network, a torus , or cube connected cycles .

Like roadway and Water supply network water distribution systems , a loop or ring is used to provide redundancy. SDH , SONET and Wavelength Division Multiplexing WDM systems are often configured in self healing rings. Description The system consists of a ring of bidirectional links between a set of stations, typically using optical fiber communications. In normal use, traffic is dispatched in the direction of the shortest path towards its destination. In the event of the loss of a link, or of an entire station, the two nearest surviving stations loop back their ends of the ring. In this way, traffic can still travel to all surviving parts of the ring, even if it has to travel the long way round . A second break in the ring may divide it into two sub rings, but in such a case each sub ring will remain functional. Advantages Self healing rings offer high levels of resilience at low cost, since it is often geographically easy to take multiple paths across the landscape and link them up into a ring with very little extra fibre length. Recent submarine communications cable s are typically built in pairs, to function as a self healing ring. Very high resilience systems are typically built on interconnected meshes of self healing rings. Another example of a self healing ring network technology is the FDDI local area network. Resilient Packet Ring is a new technology for packet switched self healing ring networks. These types of rings mainly used for saving high rate tr ... more details
The Cray SV1 is a vector processor supercomputer from the Cray Research division of Silicon Graphics introduced in 1998. The SV1 has since been succeeded by the Cray X1 and X1E vector supercomputers. Like its predecessor, the Cray J90 , the SV1 used CMOS processors, which lowered the cost of the system, and allowed the computer to be air cooled. The SV1 was backwards compatible with J90 and Cray Y MP Y MP software, and ran the same UNIX derived UNICOS operating system . The SV1 used Cray floating point representation, not the IEEE 754 floating point format used on the Cray T3E and some Cray T90 systems. Unlike earlier Cray designs, the SV1 included a vector cache. It also introduced a feature called multi streaming, in which one processor from each of four processor boards work together to form a virtual processor with four times the performance. The SV1 processor was clocked at 300 MHz. Later variants of the SV1, the SV1e and SV1ex , ran at 500 MHz, the latter also having faster memory and support for the SSD I Solid State Storage Device. Systems could include up to 32 processors with up to 512 shared memory buses. Multiple SV1 cabinets could be clustered together using the GigaRing I O channel, which also provided connection to HIPPI , FDDI , Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM , Ethernet and SCSI devices for network, disk, and tape services. In theory, up to 32 nodes could be clustered together, offering up to one teraflop in theoretical peak performance.

Chipcom was a company, early pioneering in the Ethernet hub industry. Their products allowed Local Networks to be aggregated in a single place instead of being distributed across the length of a single coaxial cable. They competed with now gone companies such as Cabletron Systems , SynOptics , Ungermann Bass , David Systems, Digital Equipment Corporation , and American Photonics , all of which were early entrants in the LAN Hub industry. Chipcom also was involved in Token Ring , FDDI , and Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM . Eventually, LAN Hub technology was superseded by the modular network bridge , which is now known as the network switch . By dividing Ethernet connections into bridged domains, Ethernet switches made traffic flow more quickly through the aggregation point, eliminating the need for Ethernet hubs. Although very small Ethernet hubs are still available, they are almost never used in Enterprise networks. Some of the brand names of Chipcom products are ORnet, ONline, ONdemand, ONsemble, and ONcore. These products range from media adapters to large enterprise class multi protocol hubs with high throughput switching fabric. Many Chipcom employees, who were affectionately referred to as Chippers , had an intense pride in the company and the work that they did. In 1995, Chipcom was acquired by 3Com . 3Com was acquired by HP in 2011. Although many of the employees from Chipcom were retained, most eventually left. There is a Chipcom Alumni site.

Unreferenced date December 2009 In computer network computer networking , promiscuous mode or promisc mode is a mode for a network interface controller NIC that causes the NIC to pass all traffic it receives to the central processing unit CPU rather than just passing frames the NIC is intended to receive. This mode is normally used for packet sniffing and bridged networking for hardware virtualization . In IEEE 802 networks such as Ethernet , token ring , and Wi Fi , and in Fiber distributed data interface FDDI , each frame includes a destination Media Access Control address MAC address . In non promiscuous mode, when a NIC receives a frame, it normally drops it unless the frame is addressed to that NIC s MAC address or is a Broadcasting computing broadcast or multicast frame. In promiscuous mode, however, the card allows all frames through, thus allowing the computer to read frames intended for other machines or network devices. Many operating system s require superuser privileges to enable promiscuous mode. A non routing node networking node in promiscuous mode can generally only monitor traffic to and from other nodes within the same broadcast domain for Ethernet and Wi Fi or ring for token ring or Fiber distributed data interface FDDI . Computers attached to the same network hub satisfy this requirement, which is why network switch es are used to combat malicious use of promiscuous mode. A router computing router may monitor all traffic that it routes. Promiscuous mode is often used to diagnose network connectivity issues. There are programs that make use of this feature to show the user all the data being transferred over the network. Some protocols like File Transfer Protocol FTP and Telnet transfer data and passwords in clear text, without encryption, and network scanners can see this data. Therefore, computer users are encouraged to stay away from insecure protocols like telnet and use more secure ones such as Secure Shell SSH . Detection As promiscuous mode ... more details

In telecommunication , a distributed queue dual bus network DQDB is a distributed multi access telecommunications network network that a supports integrated telecommunication communications using a dual bus and distributed queuing, b provides access to Local area network local or metropolitan area networks , and c supports connectionless data transfer , telecommunication connection connection oriented data transfer, and isochronous communications, such as voice communications. IEEE 802.6 is an example of a network providing DQDB access methods. DQDB Concept of Operation The DQDB Medium Access Control Media Access Control MAC algorithm is generally credited to Robert Newman who developed this algorithm in his PhD thesis in the 1980s at the University of Western Australia . To appreciate the innovative value of the DQDB MAC algorithm, it must be seen against the background of Local area network LAN protocols at that time, which were based on broadcast such as ethernet IEEE 802.3 or a ring like token ring IEEE 802.5 and Fiber distributed data interface FDDI . The DQDB may be thought of as two token rings, one carrying data in each direction around the ring. the following sentence appears to be a fragment The rives reliability which is important in Metropolitan area network Metropolitan Area Networks MAN , where repairs may take longer than in a LAN and wifi because the damage may be inaccessible . The DQDB standard IEEE 802.6 was developed while Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM Broadband ISDN was still in early development, but there was strong interaction between the two standards. Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM concepts ATM cells and DQDB frames were harmonized. They both settled on essentially a 48 byte data frame with a 5 byte header. In the DQDB algorithm, a distributed queue was implemented by communicating queue state information via the header. Each node in a DQDB network maintains a pair of state variables which represent its position in the distributed queue an ... more details
