About this title

Synopsis

Stamper's new book provides LAN administrators with a thorough, easily read overview of local area network installation and management. It follows general, non software-specific coverage with examples of specific software implementations.

From the Back Cover

Written from the perspectives of LAN management, the focus of this text is on administrative responsibilities and strategies, which range from selecting and installing LAN hardware and software to designing backup and recovery options (chapters 9-12). However, because of the need for LAN managers to consider issues important to all members of the LAN community, such as end-users, the author provides appropriate coverage of these perspectives as well.

Despite the rapid rate of technology introduction into the market, this new third edition provides up-to-date coverage and anticipates emerging technologies:

OSI reference model (Ch 1)
LAN Selection Criteria (Ch 2)
