 However, since IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet) and IEEE 802.4 (Token Bus) send the bytes (octets) over the wire, left-to-right, with least significant bit in each byte first, while IEEE 802.5 (Token Ring) and IEEE 802.6 (FDDI) send the bytes over the wire with the most significant bit first, confusion may arise when an address in the latter scenario is represented with bits reversed from the canonical representation.For example, an address in canonical form would be transmitted over the wire as bits codice_4 in the standard transmission order (least significant bit first).But for Token Ring networks, it would be transmitted as bits codice_5 in most-significant-bit first order.
