MathLAN design document: "A CAMPUS CONNECTION STRATEGY FOR PROVIDING LOCAL AREA NETWORK ACCESS"

Document describing design rules for network connections between buildings on the Grinnell College campus and a rough diagram describing a bridged fibre link between an Ethernet segment in Darby, where the VAX 8600 minicomputer was located, and an Ethernet segment in the "Central Wiring Closet" (probably in the 1987 wing of Noyce) to which two "SUNSYS" nodes (probably the proposed MathLAN) were connected. Machines on the second segment would have needed this link to connect to the VAX and function as terminals. From Stone's "MathLAN" file.
