Network architecture is an abstract concept. It is also an important one. First, we will develop the concept of a protocol, because protocols are important building blocks of network architectures. In fact, a network architecture is sometimes defined as a system of protocols. Next, we will describe network topologies and show how they relate to network architectures. Finally we will give a more rigorous and complete definition of network architecture.
