PROJECT AIMS & OBJECTIVES
This project aims to introduce the reader to queuing and compression techniques currently used in Wide Area Networks. Most importantly it will develop the reader’s understanding and the need for traffic optimization.
It will cover various techniques available depending on the WAN service in which they will be employed. Throughout the project I will show how to effectively implement these techniques in a real-time situation.
During the project I will investigate and compare hardware related issues such as: prices, availability, performance, support, value for money, etc.
I will then draw up a list which will include the hardware that I have experimented with and the hardware that I believe will give the best results based on a thorough research and journal reviews, and of course my own opinion and verdict.
Finally emphasis will be placed on other related issues as they apply and may include security, troubleshooting, and compatibility.
At the end of the project my main objectives would be to enhance my knowledge about the subject, develop my problem solving skills improve my time management and ability to meet my deadlines, and acquire professional attitude towards my future goals.
