Ring Topology on WAN
Each site is connected to two other sites so that entire WAN forms a ring pattern

Also called plain old telephone service
(POTS)
PSTN for WAN connection:
Modem (V.92)

ISDN BRI (Basic Rate Interface)
International standard for transmitting data over digital lines BRI: Basic Rate Interface (2B+D) A variety of ISDN using two 6464-kbps bearer (B) channels and one 1616-kbps p data ((D)) channel,, as indicated by the following notation: Through bonding, the two 6464-kbps channels can be combined to achieve an effective throughput of 128128-kbps ISDN PRI (23B+D) over T1

T-Carriers
The most common T T--carrier implementations are T1 and T3 Signal level (DS0, DS1, etc.)
ANSI standard for T T--carrier technology that refers to its Ph i l layer Physical l electrical l t i l signaling i li characteristics h t i ti
DSO (digital signal, level 0)
Fractional T1 (FT1, n ×64K)
01/24/08
Equivalent of one voice channel (64K) Arrangement allowing an organization to use only some channels on a T1 line, paying for what they use TDC363-04

Types of TT-Carriers
T1: 64K×24 = 1.536 vs. (24×8+1) × 8K = 1.544M
channels: telephone calls 01/24/08

T-Carrier Connectivity
Wiring
CSU/DSU (Channel Service Unit/Data Service Unit) CSU provides termination for the digital signal and ensures connection
Can use unshielded or shielded twistedtwisted-pair copper wiring
integrity through error correction and line monitoring DSU converts the digital signal used by CPE into the digital signal sent via the outside cabling to the carrier.

DS3 Deployment
Typically, fiber (often deployed as STS1/STS3) is used to transport the signals from the central office to the premise wiring closet where the STS1/STS3 fiber line is segmented into single or multiple DS3 coaxial lines for further deployment to individual offices or floors. Central Office

Need Higher Data Rate
T1: 1.544M bps N × T1 where N = 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 DS3 = 28 × T1 = 45M bps OC--3 ≈ 3 × DS3 = 155M bps OC b OC--12 = 4 × OCOC OC-3 = 622M bps OC--48 = 4 × OCOC OC-12 = 2.4G bps OC--192 = 4 × OCOC OC-48 = 10G bps OC--768 = 4 × OCOC OC-192 = 40G bps TDC363-04

Packet Switching Service
X.25 Analog, packet packet--switched LAN technology optimized for long long--distance data transmission Frame Relay Updated (and simplified) digital version of X.25 Variable rates: from 56K bps to 1.544M bps (new standards to 45M bps)

Frame Relay (cont.)
Address: Data Link Connection Identifier (DLCI), 10 10--bit, local significance. CIR (committed information rate) Guaranteed minimum amount of bandwidth selected when leasing a frame relay circuit Can burst higher than CIR Users get more than they pay for.

Why Frame Relay? (compared with T1)
X.25 too much overhead, ATM too expensive A popular service for WAN
Switched technology:
The paragraph in the book is incorrect. (p. 355) not ot se sensitive s t ve to ddistance sta ce in pricing p c g Cheaper than T1 for long distance
Physical Connection: point to multi multi--points
Logical Connection: point to point
Security: as good as PSTN (which is very secure)
01/24/08
Significant cost saving for a mesh topology As secured as T1
TDC363-04
26
Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL) Uses advanced data modulation techniques to achieve extraordinary throughput over regular phone lines (2(2-wire or 44-wire) DSL can span only limited distances. distances DSL types can be divided into two categories:
Asymmetrical (download ≠ upload) Symmetrical (download = upload)

Types of DSL
ADSL: Asymmetric DSL HDSL: High Bit Rate DSL (4-wire) SDSL: Symmetric (or Single line [one pair]) DSL VDSL: Very High Bit Rate DSL (not for WAN)
New standards: HDSL2 (2-wire) g.shdsl, symmetric
New: ADSL2 and ADSL2+ TDC363-04

DSL Connectivity
Once inside the customer’s home or office, the DSL line must pass through a
DSL modem One RJ RJ--11 port to PSTN One RJ RJ--45 port to home/office LAN

Notes on Cable Modem
Shared Medium
Performance degradation if everyone is surfing. Security Concern
Infrastructure
Comparison and Competing with xDSL
Not available to the business community There is no right answer.
Note: Any packet switching technology allow multiple users to share the media. The goal is to improve the utilization of the media. Wherever there is resource sharing, there is potential bottleneck. The question is where the media is being shared.

Notes on SONET
SONET is a popular technology (and widely deployed) for a carrier to build its metro backbone. It may also used by an enterprise in a campus network. G Government also l b builds ild its i own SONET S T backbone. b kb SONET is not the technology to access the Internet. An enterprise may connect its SONET to a carrier SONET via a leased trunk (OC(OC-3 or higher).

ADM
The ADM is owned and maintained by a carrier, but it could be physically located at a company premise, or it could be at a multi-tenant environment (MTE). Example of MTE: office building, apartment complex.

Remote Connectivity
Need: access private resources on the corporate network
Remote access methods:
Direct dial to the LAN
Terminal Services (p. 386)
Through a browser, a user at home or on the road connects to a LAN whose files are made visible to the Web through Web server software
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
01/24/08
Software running on both remote user’s computer and LAN computer allows remote user to “take over” the LAN workstation.
Web Portals (p. 387)
The computer dialing into the LAN becomes a remote node on the network (see the slide on RAS/modem pool)
a private data network over the public Internet

Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
VPN is a private network over a public network (internet). A VPN may or may not be IPIPbased.

What are the characteristics distinguishing WAN from LAN? Speed of T T--carrier and OCOC-x Comparison of T1 and Frame Relay. Give a scenario that you will use T1 and another scenario to use Frame Relay. Relay Draw a network diagram to show the T1 connection to the Internet. (CSU/DSU + router + …) What is CSU/DSU? What is the addressing scheme of frame relay? Is there an addressing scheme for T1? Comparison of different DSL and their speeds. TDC363-04
