Résumé

Networking guru provides network managers with the most comprehensive guide to LAN
switching technologies available!

One of the hottest issues in LAN networking today is making the change from bridging to
switching technologies. Written by an innovator who has been at the forefront of networking
technology for more than two decades, this is a comprehensive reference to LAN switching.
From selecting the best commercial switching products to integration and management, it
covers all the bases for network planners, developers, and managers. It reports on the latest
technology enhancements—including previously unpublished information on Link
Aggregation, Virtual LANs, and Layer 3 switches. And it supplies clear, step-by-step
guidance on how to apply switches to mixed technology environments.
