Introduction
Using This Guide
The
Cabletron Systems Networking Guide - Workgroup Solutions
is intended
to provide much of the information necessary to allow Network Managers to
design and evaluate workgroup networks using the Cabletron Systems family of
standalone and stackable networking products. This guide also provides the
methods for associating these workgroups into larger networks or incorporating
them into existing facility networks.
This document was written with the assumption that the reader has some
familiarity with four networking technologies; Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Token
Ring, and FDDI. If you are unfamiliar with these technologies, Cabletron Systems
produces instructional and reference materials that may be of assistance in
learning these networking technologies. The available instructional materials are
referred to in
Related Documentation
, later in this chapter. For those already
familiar with the Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Token Ring technologies, a brief
refresher in the main design-specific aspects of these technologies is provided in
later chapters.
NOTE
This document assumes that the reader has read the
Cabletron
Systems Networking Guide - MMAC-FNB Solutions
. The
document is available on the Cabletron Systems Hardware
Manuals CD-ROM. If you are unable to locate a copy of that
document, you may also order a printed version of any
document listed above from Cabletron Systems.
