Mel Beckman
As more and more companies begin to link branch offices,mobile workers,and telecommuters,wide-area networks (WANs) are gaining in popularity. Trouble is,WAN technology is quite different than that of the LAN systems currently in place. This much anticipated book solves the LAN/WAN dilemma faced by countless managers who are familiar with one geography and perplexed by the other. Readers will find jargon free descriptions of the most widely used LAN architectures. . . extension technologies such as bridges,routers,gateways,and hubs. . . and a survey of wide area service options including FDDI,frame relay,and ATM.
