That might solve the physical-layer connectivity problem, but you would still have a problem with signal encoding, framing, media access control, frame sizes, etc. They are two different technologies. To connect them, you need a bridge, switch, or router that has both an Ethernet and an FDDI connector. You might be able to find a low-cost bridge that does this on E-Bay (or maybe a new one at BlackBox or some such vendor). FDDI also requires a concentrator. If the goal is to learn FDDI for CCIE tests, maybe books are best!? ;-) Priscilla >I'd suggest a search on >google to define exactly what the spec states. >http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/ito_doc/fddi.htm > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Charles Mao [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Monday, November 26, 2001 12:26 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Can 10Base2/5 be connected with FDDI ?
