Token Ring Solutions
HP router software provides support for IBM source-routing bridging. This
makes many new routing and bridging solutions possible in token ring
environments. This section examines these routing and bridging applications
and explains concepts central to routing and bridging in a token ring environ-
ment. A few token ring limitations are described at the end of the section.
