Ethernet Applet
This applet allows you to visualize how transmission time and propagation
delay effect CSMA/CD. The applet uses a bus topology (such as with 10Base2)
as opposed to a star topology (although similar effects occur with a star
topology). The applet assumes a propagation speed of 2*108 meters/sec.
