This chapter tells you how to optimize your FDDI network and assumes that
you are familiar with FDDI network architecture and related terminology. See
Chapter 6, “FDDI Network Architecture” for a detailed description of the FDDI
protocols, and Chapter 7, “FDDI Network Topologies” for a detailed
description of the FDDI network architecture.
