Course benefits At a time when many corporate networks have reached their design limit, organisations are faced with contrasting options for expanding their networks: ATM, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and FDDI in the local area, then ATM, Frame Relay, Sonet/SDH, SMDS and others across the wide area. These networks all offer substantially different facilities.
ATM can provide a single, scalable network solution to current and future network requirements, but there is much vendor hype, along with conflicting claims by vendors.
This vendor-independent course provides an essential coverage of ATM network technologies, services and equipment. On completing the course you will understand the real benefits of ATM, and will be able to plan the integration of ATM into your existing networks. In just two days you will be able to:
All personnel responsible for planning, implementing or supporting ATM networks will find this course invaluable. Pre-requisites Delegates should have some practical experience of networking prior to attending the course. Course 301: Introduction to Datacomms and Networking, is recommended as a minimum level of experience. |
Course 341: Content Introduction Asynchronous vs isochronous communication Frames, packets and cells Congestion, flow control, error control Physical and virtual circuits Connection-oriented and connectionless communication
