between network elements and their respective OSS, making them a vital link between the service network and the network operations center (NOC). The solutions presented in this document will help telcos connect their SONET/SDH network elements to a router-based network using the Open System Interconnection (OSI) protocol, which simplifies the DCN and reduces equipment costs.

massive growth of Internet Technologies, demand for Cisco products increased dramatically, resulting in Cisco dominating the marketplace. The contributing factor to Cisco’s dominating presence in the market is due to the company’s primary product, the “router”. This is a combination of hardware and software that acts as a traffic cop on the complex Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) networks that make up the internet as well as corporate intranets. TCP and IP networks provided

devices on different LAN segments which can communicate with each other as if they were all on the same physical LAN segment. Switches using VLANs create the same division of the network into separate domains but do not have the latency problems of a router. Switches are also a more cost-effective solution. By now you are probably wondering why someone would go to all this work to end up with what appears to be the same network as the original one. In many instances, LANs have been grouped with physical

other words it keeps its place in the order it was sent. The packets travel through routers as in goes through the network. The access network router would be the first router. The packets are not limited to just one router sometimes these packets will travel through multiple routers in multiple topologies. This can include Regional Networks, Long-Haul Networks, and Ocean Networks. The network and each router will determine which direction of travel is best path for the packet. As things change

Indianapolis, Tampa and Liverpool, will each have their own Local Area Network (LAN) setup. These LAN’s will be designed to best facilitate their intranet needs and will have the inclusion of internet access. Each site will include switches and routers with other networked devices and will be designed off Star topology. The Star Topology is a common network configuration in which workstations and other network devices connect to a single point called the hub. (Exforsys, 2008) We will be installing

but at the time different local area protocols communications didn’t exist. As a result the first multi-protocol router came out. Since then Cisco lead the networking market allowing “the transportation of voice, data and video within buildings, across campuses and around the world” (Cisco 2013 Annual Report. P.1). This is possible thanks to the routers, its core technology. A router is a device that joins multiple networks together, it allows the connection of networks from all over the word to
