Re: End of Frame.
Satya,
The first frame will be dropped because no valid End of Frame is
detected, and, barring any other errors between the two frames, the IPG
will terminate the first packet. The second frame should be received
correctly, barring any other errors in the IPG and that frame. This
should be the case regardless of PHY type.
Best Regards,
Rich
