Ethernet --> HIPPI
Ethernet has adopted key HIPPI features
- Faster Ethernet rates are supported on a “switched only” media
- Defacto behavior on Gigabit Ethernet
- Will be in standard for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
- Eliminates collision detection as flow control method
- Larger frame (packet) sizes are being used
- Jumbo frames to 9K supported by some vendors
