Synopsis

Most network migrations won't be from one operating system to another in the near future; they'll be from unswitched to switched LANs. A switch lets two or more parties connect directly, but temporarily. This book covers basic architectures and operations for six major emerging technologies: ATM switching; switched Ethernet; LAN Emulation; multi-protocol Over ATM (MPOA); IP switching; and fibre channel.
