Abstract: An extension of the Source Routing algorithm is proposed for supporting multiplexed frame transmissions in the Extended LAN environment. The method exploits the new characteristics imposed by the introduction of high-speed backbone networks in the internetworking problem and allows better bandwidth allocation according to the current traffic load, without any modifications on the access protocol. The proposed enhancement uses the reserved bits of the Source Routing Control field and requires no modifications on the existing frame format. The multiplexing scheme is described in details along with a new statistic method for traffic monitoring. The proposed method can be easily implemented in hardware, so it can be included in a bridge implementation and a short description of such an implementation is given.
