Description
Summary:"Furnishing appropriate designs for traditional and critical services in the LAN and carrier networks (both MAN and WAN), the author clarifies how a specific layer or technology can cause those services to malfunction. This book lays a foundation for understanding with concepts and applicability of QoS parameters under the multilayer scheme, and a solid explanation of service infrastructure. It goes on to describe integration in both real time and not real time, elaborating on how both processes can co-exist within the same IP network and concluding with the designs and configurations of service connections."--Jacket
"A Comprehensive "Global" Vision of Convergence The emergence of quality-of-service (QoS) mechanisms continues to propel the development of real-time multimedia services such as VoIP and videoconferencing. However, there remain many challenges to achieving optimized standardization convergence. Network Design for IP Convergence was written specifically to be a comprehensive, "global" guide to the state and latest advances of IP network implementation. This book explains integration of the different layers of reference models and various technological platforms to mirror the harmonization that occurs in the real world of carrier networks."
