Publisher's Synopsis
Here is a practical resource to help LAN managers and consultants resolve their most stubborn network performance problems. This book/disk package shows how bottlenecks in data communications networks can be quickly located and eliminated by using the modelling and analysis software, LANModel, included on disk with the book. The diagnostic tools provided are equally effective with Banyan Vines, Novell Netware, UB Access One, Unix, Sun NFS, IBM LAN Server, Microsoft LAN Manager, Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI network operating systems.;A popular program that runs under Windows on workstations and travelling laptops, LANModel supplies the critical information needed to optimize LAN configurations, channel capacity, and data throughput for enhanced client-server communications. Martin Nemzow demonstrates how to use the program's unique modelling features to monitor LAN data, protocol trends, traffic workloads, and node counts, so that inefficiency and blockage in the transmission of data can be more easily pinpointed.
