*Worst case delays taken from IEEE Std 802.3u-1995.
To determine whether a prospective network topology adheres to the collision
domain diameter specification, the following formula should be applied to the worst case
path through the network. The worst case path is the path between the two Fast Ethernet
devices (DTEs) which have the longest round trip delay time.
