History of Networking/Telecom. Tele – “distance” 3000 BC Sumarian Clay Tables Ancient Greeks/Fire Signals Roman messengers/scrolls Paul Revere –light/horse/mouth Pony Express (short lived) 1854 Samuel Morse- telegraph 1876 Bell – telephone Today – TV, Radio, phone, fax 11/11/2018

History-Networking and Telecommunications Mainframe/minicomputers-Punch cards/terminals (1940-1970) Microcomputers (1980) standalone Network-LAN / WAN (1990) Combo of data, voice and video 11/11/2018

Is this a history class? 1980 – Xerox, DEC and Intel – developed 1.0 Ethernet, 10Mbps, bus topology, baseband lan 1983 – Novell Formed 1984 – IBM and Microsoft, early client/server file sharing lan 11/11/2018

Why Lans? Sharing Resources (hardware and software) Distributed processing Centralized administration (backups, software installs/upgrades) Centralized data and software/applications 11/11/2018
Why Lans? (cont.) Low Cost Minimal Perf. Degredation with each additional user although there is some degredation and a single point of failure Communications Downsizing/rightsizing 11/11/2018
Why Wans? Connects lans, micros, minis, mainframes 11/11/2018
