ABSTRACT:
A local area network comprises a plurality of network interfaces with each network interface coupled to a station, the network interfaces further for exchanging data with each other. The local area network further comprises a distribution station for exchanging data with the network interfaces. The distribution station further receives load information of the network interfaces, and in response to the load information, transmits a channel distribution for the exchange of data between the network interfaces.
