Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 6 page paper discussing considerations for supplying a LAN for a CPA firm. The network designed for the CPA firm should be a thin client, three-tier client/server system operating on Fast Ethernet. Small groups of users should be connected via token ring groups connected to a 100 mbps Fast Ethernet backbone network. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
The 560-user CPA firm currently is not networked. It wishes to establish a Local Area Network (LAN) that will meet both its current and future needs. It should
be easily expandable. The purpose here is to assess network components for which is most advantageous to the firm. The network operating system will be Novells NetWare 5.1,
thereby limiting hardware to Intel Pentium(r) machines or the Motorola 68000. The firm will rely on a client/server configuration as that easiest and most cost effective to upgrade. The
Network Networking is "the electronic linking of geographically dispersed devices" (Martin, Brown, DeHayes, Hoffer and Perkins, 2002; p. 100), and involves the movement
of information over and through the network. "There are four primary reasons for networking" (Martin, et al., 2002; p. 99): (1) sharing of technology resources; (2) sharing of
data; (3) distributed data processing and client/server systems; and (4) enhanced communications. Network Protocol Now an "old" technology, Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
has been in use for more than 20 years and keeps being relevant to changing environments, usually just when it has been counted as a protocol that likely will not
survive the next generation of technological advances. The truth is that even though applications, hardware and possible speeds of transmission all have increased in capabilities and reliability, the actual
mode of transmission of data across the systems largely is accomplished in same manner now as when networking was new. TCP/IP works under
the same principles in Internet applications as it did before the existence of the Internet, which is to facilitate data transmission by "breaking the information into smaller packets" (Venter and
