Case Study - UNM - Electronics (Cont.)
The campus network consists of ethernets and an FDDI network.
The FDDI ring is located at the computing center (zone 0) and is only a few feet long.
Dual homing FDDI concentrators located at the computing center connect all the other zones to the FDDI ring. Each zone has 2 connections, one to each concentrator. If a connection or a concentrator fails, the other one takes automatically over.
