  This work is designed to offer network administrators and software developers information on the internal protocols of the most popular network software. It is a companion to the LAN Troubleshooting Handbook and illustrates the techniques of protocol analysis, the step-by-step process of unravelling LAN software failures. The handbook also details how Ethernet IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.5 and ARCNET networks transmit frames of information between workstations. From that foundation it presents LAN performance measurements, protocol analysis methods and protocol analyzer products. Individual chapters discuss Novell's NetWare, 3Com's3+ AND 3+ OPEN, IBM Token-Ring-related protocols, Banyan VINES and Apple Computers' Apple-Talk.
