Description: "This amendment specifies the changes required to IEEE 802.5, 1999 Edition (ISO/IEC8802-5:1998 base standard), IEEE Stds 802.5r and 802.5j, 1998 edition (ISO/IEC 8802-5:1998/Amd. 1:1998), and IEEE Std 802.5t-1999, to support 1000 Mbits/s Dedicated Token Ring (DTR) operation. The base standard together with Amendment 1 specifies shared and dedicated (point-to-point) Token Ring operation at both 4 and 16 Mbits/s using either the TKP Access protocol or the TXI Access Protocol. This standard extends Token Ring operation to 1000 Mbits/s for the DTR C-Port and Station using the TXI Access Protocol. Extensions to the Media Access Control have been made to accommodate the requirements for the 1000 Mbits/s media rate."
