EEL 5718Computer Communications Local Area Networks (LAN) Local Area Network (LAN) Cover short distance Provide very high speed LAN Applications Personal computer LANs Back end networks and storage area networks Interconnecting large systems (mainframes and large storage devices) High data rate High speed interface Distributed access Limited distance Limited number of devices High speed office networks Backbone LANs LAN Topologies Tree Bus Special case of tree One trunk, no branches Ring Star LAN Topologies Bus and Tree Multipoint medium Transmission propagates throughout medium Heard by all stations Need to identify target station (with unique address) Full duplex connection between station and tap Allows for transmission and reception Need to regulate transmission To avoid collisions Terminator absorbs frames at end of medium Frame Transmission - Bus LAN Ring Topology Repeaters joined by point to point links in closed loop Receive data on one link and retransmit on another Links unidirectional Stations attach to repeaters Data in frames Circulate past all stations Destination recognizes address and copies frame Frame circulates back to source where it is removed MAC determines when station can insert frame Frame TransmissionRing LAN Star Topology Each station connected directly to central node Usually via two point to point links Central node can broadcast Physical star, logical bus Only one station can transmit at a time Central node can act as frame switch Protocol Architecture Lower layers of OSI model IEEE 802 reference model Physical Logical link control (LLC) Media access control (MAC) IEEE 802 vs. OSI IEEE 802 Layers - Physical Encoding/decoding Preamble generation/removal Bit transmission/reception Transmission medium and topology 802 Layers -Media Access Control (MAC) Multiple Access Control or Multiaccess Control Provides connectionless transfer of datagrams Govern access to transmission medium For the same
