Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0239677A1] For use in a network having multiple nodes, there is disclosed a system and method for connecting nodes to a network via non-network compliant links. The system comprises a network standard physical layer in a first node that is capable of representing more than one node, and at least one non-network compliant node that is capable of sending instructions to the network standard physical layer in the first node to tell the network standard physical layer how many nodes to represent. The system and method of the present invention provides at least one network compliant node that is capable of representing multiple non-network compliant nodes in the network.
