2.3.2 Half - duplex In half-duplex mode, each station can both transmit and receive, but not at the same time .When one device is sending, the other can only receive, and vice versa . 2.3.3 Full - duplex In full-duplex mode (also called duplex), both stations can transmit and receive simultaneously 2.3.3 Full - duplex 全双工的实现方式： 配备两条物理上相互独立的传输路径； 将信道带宽一分为二，用于承载不同方向上的数据传输。 2.4 CATEGORIES OF NETWORKS Primary categories of networks local area network (LAN) metropolitan area network (MAN) wide area network (WAN) Which category a network falls into is determined by its size, its ownership, the distance it covers, and its physical architecture. 2.4.1 Local Area Network (LAN) local area network (LAN) usually privately owned and links the devices in a single office, building, or campus .LAN size is limited to a few kilometers peripheral. 2.4.1 Local Area Network (LAN) Characteristic: Size: limited to a few kilometers; Transmission media: In general, a given LAN will use only one type of transmission media ; Topology: mostly bus, ring and star; Data rate: 4 to 16Mbps,100Mbps ?2.4.2 MAN( Metropolitan Area Network ) 2.4.2 MAN( Metropolitan Area Network ) MAN is designed to extend over an entire city. Many telephone companies provide a popular MAN service called Switched Multi-megabit data services (SMDS，交换多兆比特服务). ?2.4.3 WAN( Wide Area Network ) A network that provides long-distance transmission of data , voice, image, and video information over large geographical areas that may comprise a county, a continent, or even the whole world. ?2.4.3 WAN( Wide Area Network ) 2.5 Internetworks(网际互联) When two or more networks are connected, they become an internetwork, or internet. 2.5 Internetworks The term internet(互联网) is a generic term used to mean an interconnection of networks. The Internet(因特网) is the name of a specific worldwide network. SUMMARY A line configuration defines the relationship of communication devices to a communications pathway. In a point-to-p
