广域网简介及配置（Wan profile and configuration） The eighth chapter, Wan profile and configuration 8.1 Wan profiles Wan is an inter regional data communication network, which uses the equipment provided by telecom operators as an information transmission platform. Wide area network requires high communication and high complexity. In enterprise networks, Wan is mainly used to connect remote LANs to each other to communicate between lans. Compared with the OSI reference model, WAN technology is mainly located at 3 layers at the bottom, including physical layer, data link layer and network layer. As shown in figure 8-1. The WAN data link layer defines how data is encapsulated to transmit to a remote site, and the WAN data link layer protocol describes the frames being transmitted over a single data path built between the systems. Data link layer protocols include frame relay, point to point (PPP), HDLC, ISDN, etc. figure 8-2 describes the link between data link protocols and Wan lines. The common encapsulation protocols of WAN are HDLC and PPP. Data link encapsulation protocol provides services for third layers of network layer. It encapsulates the data in the network layer as a corresponding frame format and forwards it to the next node. In order to describe more clearly this point, we can take a look at the data layer equipment - router forwarding process, the router through the target network ID third layer in Baotou package identification data, and query routing table to forward packets. When forwarding packets, the router queries only third layers of Baotou, and generally does not modify the main part of it. But for each of the second layers of the packet in Baotou (such as PPP, Baotou), each router that forwards it will modify it. The router uses second layers of Baotou to transfer data packets to the next router or target host. Figure 8-3 shows the data packets forwarded from the 1.1.1.2 to the 3.3.3.2. In order for the router to forward data to the specified data link,
