Network Convergence: Ethernet Applications and Next Generation Packet Transport Architectures (Paperback)

Network Convergence: Ethernet Applications and Next Generation Packet Transport Architectures provides the guidance and solutions you'll need to understand Ethernet and emerging applications such as cloud computing and mobile apps, as well as large-scale retail and business deployments.

This reference starts with an overview of the Ethernet and existing broadband architectures, including XDSL, WIMAX, and VLANs. It moves on to cover next-generation networks and mobile architectures, as well as cloud computing. The book also addresses the convergence of optical, Ethernet and IP/MPLS layers, considered to be the backbone of next-generation packet transport architecture.

If you're a network designer or architect, a technical sales professional, or if you're pursuing technical certifications, you will benefit from Network Convergence's fundamental information on this rapidly evolving technology.

• Discusses architectural nuances and includes practical case studies for deploying the next-generation framework for each service type
• Explains data center and cloud computing interconnect schemes for building next-generation cloud infrastructures that support a new array of requirements
• Provides configuration schemes from leading vendors, including Cisco, Juniper and Alcatel

《網路融合：乙太網路應用與下一代封包傳輸架構》提供了您理解乙太網路和新興應用（如雲端運算和行動應用程式）以及大規模零售和企業部署所需的指導和解決方案。

本書首先概述了乙太網路和現有寬頻架構，包括XDSL、WIMAX和VLAN。接著介紹了下一代網路和行動架構，以及雲端運算。本書還討論了光學、乙太網路和IP/MPLS層的融合，被認為是下一代封包傳輸架構的基礎。

如果您是網路設計師或架構師、技術銷售專業人員，或者正在追求技術認證，您將從《網路融合》對這一快速發展的技術的基本信息中受益。

本書討論了架構細節，並提供了部署每種服務類型的下一代框架的實際案例研究。它還解釋了數據中心和雲端運算的互連方案，用於構建支持新需求的下一代雲端基礎設施。本書還提供了來自領先供應商（包括思科、瞻博網和阿爾卡特）的配置方案。
