A systems analysis approach to enterprise network design
Master techniques for checking the health of an existing network todevelop a baseline for measuring performance of a new network design
Explore solutions for meeting QoS requirements, including ATMtraffic management, IETF controlled-load and guaranteed services, IPmulticast, and advanced switching, queuing, and routing algorithms
Develop network designs that provide the high bandwidth and lowdelay required for real-time applications such as multimedia, distancelearning, and videoconferencing
Identify the advantages and disadvantages of various switching androuting protocols, including transparent bridging, Inter-Switch Link(ISL), IEEE 802.1Q, IGRP, EIGRP, OSPF, and BGP4
Effectively incorporate new technologies into enterprise network designs, including VPNs, wireless networking, and IP Telephony
Top-Down Network Design, Second Edition, is a practical andcomprehensive guide to designing enterprise networks that are reliable,secure, and manageable. Using illustrations and real-world examples, itteaches a systematic method for network design that can be applied tocampus LANs, remote-access networks, WAN links, and large-scaleinternetworks.
You will learn to analyze business and technical requirements,examine traffic flow and QoS requirements, and select protocols andtechnologies based on performance goals. You will also develop anunderstanding of network performance factors such as networkutilization, throughput, accuracy, efficiency, delay, and jitter.Several charts and job aids will help you apply a top-down approach tonetwork design.
This Second Edition has been revised to include new and updatedmaterial on wireless networks, virtual private networks (VPNs), networksecurity, network redundancy, modularity in network designs, dynamicaddressing for IPv4 and IPv6, new network design and management tools,Ethernet scalability options (including 10-Gbps Ethernet, MetroEthernet, and Long-Reach Ethernet), and networks that carry voice anddata traffic.
Top-Down Network Design, Second Edition, has a companion website athttp://www.topdownbook.com, which includes updates to the book, linksto white papers, and supplemental information about design resources.
This book is part of the Networking Technology Series from CiscoPress, which offers networking professionals valuable information forconstructing efficient networks, understanding new technologies, andbuilding successful careers.
