Features: This book is an important guide for suppliers designing corporate computer networks. It elaborates on the principles for establishing stable, reliable, and manageable large-scale local area networks. These principles are independent of which hardware supplier you choose. Network designers who understand these principles can use a "best-of-breed" approach to select hardware, thereby achieving the goals of optimizing network performance and reducing costs. It can also prevent companies from being tied to specific hardware suppliers when competitive products appear in the market. This book provides practical guidance for network designers to build reliable, effective, and logical networks.
