1. Unit 7, Chapter 13 & 14 How do they talk to each other?

2. Objectives Summarize the characteristics and capabilities of a wide area network (WAN). Identify distinguishing attributes of WANs as compared to LANs. Identify the devices that are used in constructing WANs.

3. Wide Area Networks General Design hybrid of a star, hierarchical and mesh topologies Usually lease or use from communication carriers –Provide plain circuits –Additional services packet switching, frame relay, ATM, ISDN

4. Network Signaling Signaling required to manage the network and perform certain functions Control signals are sent as part of the protocol Tone Signaling –Generation of tone or combination of tones which tell the CO switch what number is being dialed Signaling System 7 (SS7) –Used between switches –Carried over independent channels from the voice circuits –Common Channel Interoffice Signaling (CCIS) Carry multiple voice channel signaling –Optimized for digital networks

5. Packet Data Networks Packet Data Networks – Packet Switching Networks or Packet Network Developed by Advanced Research Projects Agency Packets sent through the network from source to destination No physical link is established Packets from other nodes is interspersed on the network Messages are disassembled and reassembled Designed with multiple high-speed paths

6. Packet Switching Techniques 2 Methods to handle stream of packets –Datagrams Connection-less circuit Each packet handled independently by the network No guarantee delivery –Virtual Circuits Connection Oriented circuit Route established through the network Call request packet sent first, route determined Virtual circuit number is assigned, call accept is returned Virtual circuit number used for communication When communication is complete, clear packet request is sent

7. Routing Traffic Routing – How to create the virtual circuit or route the individual packets to its destination Connection Oriented Routing - VC Connectionless Routing – Packet Switching Centralized Routing –Simple –Usually used in a stat hierarchy –Static routes

8. Routing Traffic Distributed Routing –Responsibility for building and maintaining routing tables on some nodes in network –Avoids single point of failure Static & Dynamic Routing –Static Routes are fixed –Dynamic Routes can change –Dynamic routing determines best path through network, difficult to implement Broadcast Routing –Used by CSMA/CD protocol –Broadcast all packets to all stations at all times –Not efficient and not useable on large networks

9. Congestion Control Congestion – traffic arrives faster than it can be handled Transmission delay increases as well as retransmission of packets Manage by reducing flow of packets on the network Choke Packet – sent to sources of traffic to tell them to slow the flow down Quality of Service (QOS) is a way to allow certain traffic to have priority over others

10. Delays & Queing Propagation Delay –Time to get a signal from sender to receiver –LAN Delays usually about 1ms –WAN delay is longer due to distance and technology Switching Delay – Delay moving data through switches and routers Queuing Delay – Too much too fast Queuing Theory – Analysis of queues and queuing
