Develops mathematical models of various LAN performance issues, enabling LAN managers to determine the answers that are right for their organizations. This book examines a set of operational issues that help you meet the demands of your user community without overconfiguring your systems.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a private data network that makes use of the public telecommunication infrastructure. It gives the user the same capabilities at much lower cost by using the shared public infrastructure rather than a private one.

This volume contains almost 18,000 entries, including 6000 new entries more than the previous edition. It aims to reflect latest developments in communications technology, with a list of Internet RFCs, Internet and Intranet terminology, ATM, LAN and communication products.

The author has maintained the practical orientation of the first edition and applied it here to new Internetworking challenges such as high speed LANs, Fast Ethernet, FDDI and ATM.

Aimed at the senior level undergraduate and graduate computer science student, this book provides an introduction to the field of data communications. Assuming no prior knowledge of the field, it explains of the role of communications, and the fundamental concepts of using the ISO's 7-layer approach to present the various aspects of networking.

Find out about TCP/IP--based network attack methods and threats to Windows NT/2000 computers and the preventive measures you can use to protect your infrastructure. Bulletproofing TCP/IP--based Windows NT/2000 Networks details the use of router access lists, firewalls, virus scanners and encryption.

In networks, Quality of Service (QoS) is the idea that transmission rates, error rates, and other characteristics can be measured, improved, and, to some extent, guaranteed in advance. QoS is of particular concern for the continuous transmission of high--bandwidth video and multimedia information.

Data Communications is defined as "the movement of encoded information by means of communication techniques" and is the fastest growing area in the telecommunications field. The practical aspects of designing, operating, and maintaining data communications systems is constantly developing and becoming increasingly more complex.

Wireless LAN networking can enable small teams, communities to communicate via their mobile devices without cables. This work provides a comprehensive guide to the implementation, planning and monitoring of the various aspects of Wireless LAN security in small offices/small to medium business (SMBs).

Provides the information needed to know to plan, implement, manage and upgrade Ethernet networks. This book helps to: improve your skills in employing Ethernet hubs, switches, and routers; learn how to set up and operate a wireless Local Area Network; discover how to extend a wired Ethernet via wireless LANs; and, understand cabling standards.
