ISIS-3421 Interconnectivity II

This is a second course of computer networks. Under the approach top-down, new design wan networks at level 2 data operators such as MPLS, ATM, among other technologies, are analyzed. Later on some level 1 technologies also associated with core operator, like DWDM, are analyzed and the concept of optical switching (OPS, OLS, OBS) is addressed in an introductory way. Associated with the physical level some wireless networking technologies such as WiFi, WiMax and cellular networks are also discussed. Once the wan scheme network of the operators is analyzed, the convergence of services at transmission level of multimedia applications is next. Finally, but equally important, security issues in networks and introductory concepts of network management are discussed.
