As broadband communications become more prevalent, more small to medium enterprises will encounter the need to manage their network infrastructure efficiently to service all of their voice, data, and video requirements. This course covers advanced features in wired networks. The course examines technologies such as Frame Relay, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). It also examines traffic management and congestion control techniques in both TCP and ATM. Finally, it introduces students to various quality of service (QoS) approaches such as Intserv and MPLS.
