Author Description

Covering everything needed to implement the server side of client/server computing, this comprehensive introduction explains how to connect multiple computing platforms using a client/server architecture. The book covers the entire range of hardware (bridges, hubs, routers, etc.) and software (HP's OpenView, NetView/6000) that must interrelate to make the communications side of the C/S paradigm work. Fully illustrated and loaded with extensive applications cases, Client/Server Internetworking includes important network management material on SNMP, OpenView, and NetView/6000, and details both TCP/IP and SNA/APPN networks for network administrators, network analysts, and network designers.
