Thanks. What "all the ethernet control frame juju" might you be referring to? I don't recall Ethernet, in and of itself, just sending stuff back and forth. Does anyone know if this FEC stuff I see concurring is actually contained in Ethernet Frames? If so, please send a link to show the ethernet frame structure as it pertains to this 400g fec stuff. If so, I'd really like to know the header format, etc.
