Remember there is still a single > wire still even on multiple rings;-> This is definitely true, but it is good to keep in mind that in the near future we will start to see things look a little like multiple "virtual wires." This is because of new ethernet standards like per-priority pause, which makes it possible that one hardware ring on a NIC can transmit while another ring is paused (possibly because of congestion far off in the network). - R. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
