                Phase IV significantly increased the number of
                nodes possible in a network from hundreds to many
                thousands. Phase IV began the migration from old
                point-to-point networks to the new multi-point
                Ethernet. Concepts developed in DECnet
                architecture were incorporated in international
                standards. |
