The IP over FDDI Working Group is chartered to create Internet Standards for the use of the Internet Protocol and related protocols on the Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) medium. This protocol will provide support for the wide variety of FDDI configurations (e.g., dual MAC stations) in such a way as to not constrain their application, while maintaining the architectural philosophy of the Internet protocol suite. The Group will maintain liaison with other interested parties (e.g., ANSI ASC X3T9.5) to ensure technical alignment with other standards. This Group is specifically not chartered to provide solutions to mixed media bridging problems.
