PURPOSE -
The aim of the module is to examine and analyse
the various deterministic and probabilistic medium
access control protocols used in both standard and
proprietary local area networks.
To assess the various methodologies of interworking
Local Area Networks and Wide Area Networks. |

INDICATIVE
CONTENT- Access control to medium: Polling and random
(contention) access techniques; hub-polling, pure
and slotted ALOHA. Local area network MAC protocols:
CSMA/CD(Ca)-non, 1 and p persistent strategies.
Token ring and bus. FDDI. Throughput and delay performance.
Proprietary MAC protocols; CAN, Field Bus etc.;
Voice / data integration over local area networks.
Internetworking: Bridges, routers, gateways etc.
Source routing versus spanning tree. Network reliability,
security. Use of commercial LAN and network node
design tools such as LANNER II.5 and NETWORK II.5.
Use of LAN monitor and diagnostic equipment. |
