FULL CATALOG DESCRIPTION:
This
course will introduce students to several of the technologies that underlie the
planning and implementation of wide area networks. Technologies such as
frame-relay, ISDN, and X.25 will be explored and compared as they relate to the
implementation of corporate wide area networks. Students will also have the
opportunity to simulate the actual deployment of the above technologies through
the interconnection of routers in hands-on laboratories.
Prerequisites: CSN 206.
