Designed for those with limited background in network management, this is the only text that teaches the abstract concepts of network management by demonstrating them using the included network management software. Burke presents the standard networking management concepts and provides students with one of the only texts available to demonstrate how to practice network management concepts on a small LAN. The text uses a network management application and software that enable students to focus on the fundamentals of network management. Salient Features
Demonstration of network management implementation – The only book available that focuses on demonstration and includes the management software used by the author to do those demonstrations.
Configuration of SNMPv3 network management commands – Enables instructors to show students how to configure authenticated and/or encrypted SNMPv3 commands to Get or Set scalar and table data.
Coverage of a GUI tool that generates authentication and encryption keys – Familiarizes both instructors and students with a tool that eliminates the need for software described in the standard to create authentication and encryption keys.
Tables that list network implementation decisions to produce reliable, cost-effective implementations – Gives instructors a list of topics on which to base lectures.
Classification of current NSM tools according to functionality and cost.
