Re: Interface reality check




Don,

Rick has been working on a proposal to extend 64/66  to handle Ordered
sets. In order to maintain 4-bit protection for the packet delimiters,
he has
found that he needs to map the control octets to 6-bit entities. He will
be
posting an update with all the gory details soon.

Regards,
Birdy

Birdy,

Have you changed the 64B/66B proposal?  If so, can you send the details
to the reflector?  In the March update from Rick Walker
  http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/3/ae/public/mar00/walker_1_0300.pdf

The control codes (z) are mapped into 7-bit line-codes (see page 6.)  Is

the above description of a 6-bit pattern a typo or are there some major
changes to the proposal in the works?

Thank you in advance,

--Don
