[RPRWG] SendA, SendB, SendC





Why does 802.17 need SendA, SendB, SendC signals 
going from the MAC to the client?  Other 802 MACs
do not have a similar primitive even though they
have to get the client to wait in order to get 
access to the medium (e.g., in token ring LANs, a 
station must wait until a free token arrives).

Can anyone shed some light on this?
