Total Area Networking ATM,IP, Frame Relay and SMDS Explained Second
Edition John Atkins and Mark Norris BT, UK Total Area Networking
explains how high-speed communications allow local facilities to
become part of a more global network. This concept is the essential
basis for super-connectivity, when the user sees a distributed set
of network-based resources as one. This fully updated second
edition of the highly successful Total Area Networking has been
extended to include IP networks and now covers both network
technology and its applications. It illustrates the practical
implementation of a total area network using the principles
developed for Intelligent Networks, Intranets and Virtual Private
Networks.
