LAN DATA NETWORK
SECTIONS
HIGH SPEED LAN TECHNOLOGIES
L’objectif
de ce cours est de familiariser les participants aux nouvelles technologies et
aux nouvelles architectures de réseaux Haut Débit, qui vont modifier de
façon profonde l’architecture des réseaux existants.
Sont
présentés le Gigabit Ethernet , l’ATM
et les techniques de commutation multiniveau (2, 3 et 4), le routage très haut
débit : Gigabit routeur.
Ces différentes technologies seront
analysées et comparées, leurs domaines
d’applications précisés.

GIGABIT ETHERNET LAN
The course objective is to train the participants
to the new Gigabit Ethernet (GE) LAN
technology and the GE networks.
In this course will be presented the technology capabilities, its applicability
to the existing LAN networks, the standardization status, the Products
available on the Market. Case studies will be also described. Pros and Cons of
this technology will be pointed out with reference to other competing
technologies.

New technologies
for LAN switching are required to increase data throughput but also to control
the traffic and provide Quality of Service to the demanding "Real
Time" applications.
ATM is a good candidate for LAN switching and has successful records in the high speed Operator’s backbone networks.

MULTILAYER LAN SWITCHING
& VLAN
This course presents the new LAN switching
technologies: level 2 switching with the Virtual LAN (VLAN) and the Layer 3
switching. Their application domains are pointed out and also how thay can be
integrated in existing LAN networks.
Application switching, at layers 4 and above will be also reviewed.
The state of the standardization and the offer of the market will be described. Concrete cases of implementation of these technologies will be studied.
