At the still lower link layer, students explore methods for resolving addresses and allowing multiple access on local area networks. Measurement, analysis, and simulation of networks in the laboratory. Prerequisites: CSC 140, 151, and 218. deLAUBENFELS or TABAK 58 Computer Science Cornell College | 2008-09 Academic Catalogue
