Correct. And there you have minimum frame spacing requirements (IFG) and (e.g. with 10Base2 networks) minimum distance between stations attached to the bus to allow CSMA/CD work correctly.Interframe gap has no dependancy on station vector. The dependancy for CSMA/CD was bits on the wire and the alogorithm backed off until it was free to transmit. Are you talking about something else?
I cannot remember the details unfortunately. It was some limits on transmission to ensure that the collision recovery could work correctly. I thought it was related to IFG. BTW, I did mention IFG and the minimum distance between stations on bus as seperate issues, not connected issues. Was that a misunderstanding?
