  1. LESSON 6 – MAKING WAN CONNECTIONS

  2. OVERVIEW • Wide Area Network (WAN) needs • Wide Area Network (WAN) connections

  3. WIDE AREA NETWORK (WAN) NEEDS • Analyzing requirements. • Switched and dedicated link. • Private or public Network.

  4. Analyzing requirements Considerations: • Primary and alternative uses. • Locations that will participate. • Geographical separation • Services available

  5. Analyzing requirements Considerations: • Need of data to be transferred. • Relevance/criticality • Synchronous/asynchronous • Real-time/batch • Time frame for data to be transferred. • Budget constraints. .

  6. Switched and dedicated link • A switched WAN link is not active all the time. • A dedicated WAN link is always up and running.

  7. Switched WAN link • Connection-based • Packet-based

  8. Switched WAN link Connection-based link: • Forms a connection when needed. • Makes fixed amount bandwidth available. Packet-based link: • Sends data packets into a Network cloud. • Packets follow number of paths to their destination.

  9. Switched WAN link

  10. Dedicated WAN link Used when: • The connection needs to be up all the time. • Economics of dedicated connection is cheaper than a switched connection.

  11. Dedicated WAN link

  12. Private or public Network Private Network: • Is exclusive to a company. Public Network: • Allows the data of several companies to pass.

  13. Private or public Network Public Network is used when: • There is no problem if data takes longer to reach its destination. • Delay between sites is unpredictable. • One requires the lowest cost Network connection. • Data security is unimportant.

  14. Private or public Network Private Network is used when: • There is full control over bandwidth use. • A large, experienced staff maintains the public Network. • Cost is not a concern. • Data security is of prime concern. • Full, reliable control over available bandwidth is possible.

  15. UNDERSTANDING WIDE AREA NETWORK (WAN) CONNECTIONS WAN technologies: • Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) • Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) • Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) • T-1/T-3 (DS1/DS3) Connections • Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) • X.25

  16. Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) • Is ideal for low-bandwidth needs. • Is usually the least expensive way to connect. • Is carried over one set of twisted-pair wires. • Has a maximum theoretical speed of 33.6Kbps. • Transmits analog signals.

  17. Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) 2 basic forms: • Basic Rate Interface (BRI) • Primary Rate Interface (PRI)

  18. Integrated Services Digital Network Basic Rate Interface: • 2B+D • Two bearer channels carry data at speeds of 64Kbps per channel, which can also carry voice calls. • The data channel carries call setup information and communication that manages the bearer channels @ 16Kbps.

  19. Integrated Services Digital Network Primary Rate Interface: • 24B+D. • Different flavors available. • Can carry a total of 1.544 Mbps. • ISDN connects are switched with fast call setup time.

  20. Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) Asymmetric DSL (ASDL): • 8Mbps of data received. • 1Mbps of data sent. High-speed DSL (HDSL): • 768Kbps and 2.048Mbps connection between two sites.

  21. Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) Rate Adaptive DSL (RADSL): • 600Kbps to 12Mbps of data received. • 128Kbps to 1Mbps of data sent. Symmetric DSL (SDSL): • Bi-directional rates varying from 160Kbps to 2.048Mbps.

  22. Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) Very-high-speed DSL (VDSL): • 51Mbps of data downstream. • 2Mbps upstream.

  23. T-1/T-3 (DS1/DS3) connections DS1 connection: • Has 24 DS0 channels. • Can carry up to 1.544Mbps. • Commonly called a T-1 connection.

  24. T-1/T-3 (DS1/DS3) connections DS3 connection: • Has 672 DS0 channels. • Can carry up to 44.736Mbps. • Commonly called a T-3 connection.

  25. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) • Is a multiplexed, cell-based Networking technology. • Is very fast, (speed range: 155Mbps-622Mbps).

  26. X.25 • Is a packet-switched WAN connection. • Data travels through an X.25 cloud. • Transmits data securely and reliably.

  27. SUMMARY Wide Area Network (WAN) needs: • Analyzing requirements. • Switched or dedicated link. • Private or public Network.

  28. Summary WAN technologies: • Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) • Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) • Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) • T-1/T-3 (DS1/DS3) Connections • Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) • X.25
