IEEE 802.5
A Local Area Network protocol suite commonly known as Token Ring. A standard originated by IBM for a token passing ring network that can be configured in a star topology. Versions supported are 4 Mbps and 16 Mbps.
IEEE 802.6
A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) standard, using DQDN (Dual Bus Distributed Queue) technology. Provides up to 45 Mbit/s data rate on each bus today (and may provide up to 150 Mbit/son each bus in the future), for distances up to about 100 km. Popular in some parts of Australia and Europe.

| Interim Inter Switch Protocol: A call routing scheme used in STM networks. | ||
| Formerly known as PNNI Phase 0. IISP is an interim technology meant to be used | ||
| pending completion of ONNI Phase 1. IISP uses static routing tables established | ||
| by the network administrator to route connections around link failures.1 | ||

| Interim Link Management Interface: An ATM Forum defined interim specification | ||
| for network management functions between an end user and a public or private | ||
| network and between a public network and a private network. This is based on a | ||
| limited subset of SNMP capabilities. | ||
| Induced Uplink | ||
| An uplink "A" that is created due to the existence of an uplink "B" in the child peer | ||
| group represented by the node that created uplink "A". Both "A" and "B" share the | ||
| same upnode, which is higher in the PNNI hierarchy than the peer group in which | ||
| uplink "A" is seen. | ||
| Inside Link | ||
| Synonymous with horizontal link. | ||
| Instance ID | ||
| A subset of an object's attributes which serve to uniquely identify a MIB instance. | ||
