 WANs (Wide-Area Networks) are networks
that span a larger geographic area and usually
require the services of a common carrier.
 Examples of WAN technologies and protocols
include Frame Relay, ATM, and DSL.

Three major characteristics of WANs:
■ WANs generally connect devices that are
separated by a broader geographic area than
can be served by a LAN.
■ WANs use the services of carriers, such as
telephone companies, cable companies, satellite
systems, and network providers.
■ WANs use serial connections of various types
to provide access to bandwidth over large
geographic areas. 4

 The physical layer (OSI Layer 1) protocols
describe how to provide electrical, mechanical,
operational, and functional connections to the
services of a communications service provider.
 The WAN access physical layer describes the
physical connection between the company
network and the service provider network.
 The WAN physical layer includes several devices
and terms specific to wide-area networks

a) WAN Physical Layer Terminology

rộng.
■ Customer Premises Equipment (CPE): The devices
and inside wiring located at the premises of the subscriber,
connected with a telecommunication channel of a carrier.
The subscriber either owns or leases the CPE. A
subscriber, in this context, is a company that arranges for
WAN services from a service provider or carrier.
■ Data Communications Equipment (DCE): Also
called data circuit-terminating equipment, the DCE
consists of devices that put data on the local loop. The
DCE primarily provides an interface to connect
subscribers to a communication link on the WAN cloud 8
rộng.
■ Data Terminal Equipment (DTE): The customer
devices that pass the data from a customer network or host
computer for transmission over the WAN. The DTE
connects to the local loop through the DCE.
■ Local loop: The copper or fiber cable that connects the
CPE at the subscriber site to the central office (CO) of the
service provider. The local loop is sometimes called the
“last mile.
■ Central office (CO): A local service provider facility or
building where local cables link to long-haul, all-digital,
fiber-optic communications lines through a system of9
switches and other equipment.
rộng.
■ Demarcation point: A point established in a building or
complex to separate customer equipment from service
provider equipment. Physically, the demarcation point is
the cabling junction box, located on the customer
premises, that connects the CPE wiring to the local loop. It
is usually placed for easy access by a technician. The
demarcation point is the place where the responsibility for
the connection changes from the user to the service
provider. This is very important, because when problems
arise, it is necessary to determine whether the user or the
service provider is responsible for troubleshooting10 or
repair

c) WAN Physical Layer Standards:
The DTE/DCE interface uses various physical layer
protocols:
■ EIA/TIA-232: This protocol allows signal speeds of up
to 64 kbps on a 25-pin D-connector over short distances.
It was formerly known as RS-232. The ITU-T V.24
specification is effectively the same.
■ EIA/TIA-449/530: This protocol is a faster (up to 2
Mbps) version of EIA/TIA-232. It uses a 36-pin D-
connector and is capable of longer cable runs. Several
versions exist. This standard is also known as RS-422 and
12
RS-423
rộng.
■ EIA/TIA-612/613: This standard describes the High-
Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) protocol, which provides
access to services up to 52 Mbps on a 60-pin D-connector.
■ V.35: This is the ITU-T standard for synchronous
communications between a network access device and a
packet network. Originally specified to support data rates
of 48 kbps, it now supports speeds of up to 2.048 Mbps
using a 34-pin rectangular connector.
■ X.21: This protocol is an ITU-T standard for
synchronous digital communications. It uses a 15-pin D-
connector

 The data link layer (OSI Layer 2) protocols define
how data is encapsulated for transmission toward a
remote location and the mechanisms for transferring
the resulting frames
 A variety of technologies are used, such as Frame
Relay and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM).
Some of these protocols use the same basic framing
mechanism, High-Level Data Link Control
(HDLC), an ISO standard, or one of its subsets or
variants
15
a) Data Link Protocols
Data link layer protocols define how data is
encapsulated for transmission to remote sites
and the mechanisms for transferring the
resulting frames
16
The
17
 Another data link layer protocol is
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). MPLS
is increasingly being deployed by service
providers as an economical solution to carry
circuit-switched as well as packet-switched
network traffic. It can operate over any
existing infrastructure, such as IP, Frame
Relay, ATM, or Ethernet. It sits between Layer
2 and Layer 3 and is sometimes referred to as a
Layer 2.5 protocol. 18
b) WAN Encapsulation
Data from the network layer is passed to the data link layer for
delivery on a physical link, which normally is point-to-point on a
WAN connection. The data link layer builds a frame around the
network layer data so that the necessary checks and controls can
be applied. Each WAN connection type uses a Layer 2 protocol
to encapsulate a packet while it is crossing the WAN link. To
ensure that the correct encapsulation protocol is used, the Layer
2 encapsulation type used for each router serial interface must be
configured. The choice of encapsulation protocols depends on
the WAN technology and the equipment. HDLC was first
proposed in 1979; for this reason, most framing protocols that
were developed afterwards are based on it

1) Private WAN connection options
a) Dedicated communication links: When
permanent dedicated connections are required, point-to-
point lines are used with various capacities that are
limited only by the underlying physical facilities and the
willingness of users to pay for these dedicated lines. A
point-to-point link provides a preestablished WAN
communications path from the customer premises
through the provider network to a remote
destination. Point-to-point lines usually are leased from
a carrier and are also called leased lines. 23

b) Switched communication links: Switched
communication links can be either circuit-switched or
packet-switched
 Circuit-switched communication links: Circuit
switching dynamically establishes a dedicated
connection for voice or data between a sender and a
receiver. Before communication can start, it is
necessary to establish the connection through the
service provider’s network. Examples of circuit-
switched communication links are analog dialup
(PSTN) and ISDN. 26

 Packet-switched communication links: Many
WAN users do not make efficient use of the fixed
bandwidth that is available with dedicated, switched,
or permanent circuits, because the data flow
fluctuates. Communications providers have data
networks available to more appropriately service
these users. In packet-switched networks, the data is
transmitted in labeled frames, cells, or packets.
Packetswitched communication links include Frame
Relay, ATM, X.25, and Metro Ethernet.

c) Broadband Wireless
■Municipal Wi-Fi: Many cities have begun setting up municipal
wireless networks. Some of these networks provide high-speed
Internet access for free or for substantially
less than the price of other broadband services. Others are for
city use only, allowing police and fire departments and other city
employees to do certain aspects of their jobs remotely. To
connect to a municipal Wi-Fi, a subscriber typically needs a
wireless modem, which provides a stronger radio and directional
antenna than conventional wireless adapters. Most service
providers provide the necessary equipment for free or
for a fee, much like they do with DSL or cable modems.
35
rộng.
■ WiMAX: Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access
(WiMAX) is a new technology that is just beginning to come into
use. It is described in IEEE standard 802.16. WiMAX provides
high-speed broadband service with wireless access and provides
broad coverage like a cell phone network rather than through
small Wi-Fi hotspots. WiMAX operates in a similar way to Wi-Fi,
but at higher speeds, over greater distances, and for a greater
number of users. It uses a network of WiMAX towers that are
similar to cell phone towers, as shown in Figure 1-29. To access a
WiMAX network, subscribers must subscribe to an ISP that has a
WiMAX tower within 10 miles of their location. They also need a
WiMAX-enabled computer and a special encryption code to get
access to the base station. 36
rộng.
■ Satellite Internet: This is typically used by rural
users where cable and DSL are unavailable. A satellite
dish provides two-way (upload and download) data
communications. The upload speed is about one-tenth
of the 500-kbps download speed. Cable and
DSL have higher download speeds, but satellite systems
are about ten times faster than an analog modem. To
access satellite Internet services, subscribers need a
satellite dish, two modems (uplink and downlink), and
coaxial cables between the dish and the modem.

d) VPN Technology
Benefits of VPN include the following:
■ Cost savings: VPNs enable organizations to use the
global Internet to connect remote
offices and remote users to the main corporate site, thus
eliminating expensive dedicated WAN links and modem
banks.
■ Security: VPNs provide the highest level of security
by using advanced encryption and authentication
protocols that protect data from unauthorized access.
39
rộng.
■ Scalability: Because VPNs use the Internet infrastructure
within ISPs and devices, it is easy to add new users.
Corporations can add large amounts of capacity without
adding significant infrastructure.
■ Compatibility with broadband technology: VPN
technology is supported by broadband service providers
such as DSL and cable, so mobile workers and
telecommuters can take advantage of their home high-speed
Internet service to access their corporate
networks. Business-grade, high-speed broadband
connections can also provide a costeffective solution for
connecting remote offices. 40

Differences Between WLAN
and LAN
 WLANs use radio waves as the physical layer.
 WLANs use CSMA/CA instead of CSMA/CD for
media access.
 Two-way radio (half-duplex) communication.
 Radiowaves have problems that are not

found on wires.
 Connectivity issues:
 Coverage problems
 Interference, noise
 Privacy issues
 Access points are shared devices similar to an
Ethernet hub for shared bandwidth.
 WLANs must meet country-specific RF
regulations.
Radio Frequency
Transmission
 Radio frequencies are radiated into the air
via an antenna, creating radio waves.
 Objects can affect radio wave propagation
resulting in:
 Reflection
 Scattering
 Absorption
 Higher
frequencies allow higher data rates;
however, they have a shorter range.

 The
50
 IEEE 802.11 Architecture:
51
 IEEE 802.11 Services:
52
a) IEEE 802.11 medium access control: The IEEE
802.11 MAC layer covers three functional areas: reliable data
delivery, access control, and security
 Reliable Data Delivery: As with any wireless

network, a wireless LAN using the IEEE 802.11
physical and MAC layers is subject to considerable
unreliability. Noise, interference, and other
propagation effects result in the loss of a
significant number of frames. 53
 IEEE 802.11 includes a frame exchange protocol. When
a station receives a data frame from another station, it
returns an acknowledgment (ACK) frame to the source
station. This exchange is treated as an atomic unit, not to
be interrupted by a transmission from any other station.
If the source does not receive an ACK within a short
period of time, either because its data frame was damaged
or because the returning ACK was damaged, the source
retransmits the frame.
54
 Thus, the basic data transfer mechanism in IEEE
802.11 involves an exchange of two frames. To
further enhance reliability, a four-frame exchange
may be used. In this scheme, a source first issues a
Request to Send (RTS) frame to the destination.
The destination then responds with a Clear to
Send (CTS). After receiving the CTS, the source
transmits the data frame, and the destination
55
responds with an ACK.
The RTS alerts all stations that are within reception range of
the source that an exchange is under way; these stations
refrain from transmission in order to avoid a collision
between two frames transmitted at the same time. Similarly,
the CTS alerts all stations that are within reception range of
the destination that an exchange is under way.The
RTS/CTS portion of the exchange is a required function of
the MAC but may be disabled.
56
 Medium Access Control:
57
 Distributed Coordination Function:
 The DCF sublayer makes use of a simple CSMA
(carrier sense multiple access) algorithm.
 The DCF does not include a collision detection
noise and the effects of its own transmission.
 To ensure the smooth and fair functioning of this
algorithm, DCF includes a set of delays that
amounts to a priority scheme 58
 The preceding scheme is refined for DCF to
provide priority-based access by the simple
expedient of using three values for IFS
• SIFS (short IFS): The shortest IFS, used for all immediate
response actions
• PIFS (point coordination function IFS): A midlength IFS,
used by the centralized controller in the PCF scheme when
issuing polls
• DIFS (distributed coordination function IFS): The longest
IFS, used as a minimum delay for asynchronous frames
contending for access 59
60
 Point Coordination Function: PCF is an
alternative access method implemented on top of the
DCF.The operation consists of polling by the
centralized polling master (point coordinator). The
point coordinator makes use of PIFS when issuing
polls. Because PIFS is smaller than DIFS, the point
coordinator can seize the medium and lock out all
asynchronous traffic while it issues polls and receives
responses.
61
62
 MAC Frame: This general format is used for
all data and control frames, but not all fields
are used in all contexts
63
 Data Frames: There are eight data frame
subtypes, organized into two groups.
 The first four subtypes define frames that carry upper level
data from the source station to the destination station.
 The remaining four subtypes of data frames do not in fact
carry any user data. The Null Function data frame carries no
data, polls, or acknowledgments. It is used only to carry the
power management bit in the frame control field to the AP, to
indicate that the station is changing to a low-power operating
state. 64
The four data-carrying frames are as follows:
• Data: This is the simplest data frame. It may be used in both a
contention period and a contention-free period.
• Data + CF-Ack: May only be sent during a contention-free period.
In addition to carrying data, this frame acknowledges previously
received data
.• Data + CF-Poll: Used by a point coordinator to deliver data to a
mobile station and also to request that the mobile station send a data
frame that it may have buffered.
• Data + CF-Ack + CF-Poll: Combines the functions of the and into
a single frame 65
 Management Frames Management frames
are used to manage communications between
stations and APs. Functions covered include
management of associations (request,
response, reassociation, dissociation, and
authentication).
66
b) IEEE 802.11 PHYSICAL LAYER :
 Original IEEE 802.11 Physical Layer: Three
physical media are defined in the original
802.11 standard:
• Direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS)
• Frequency-hopping spread spectrum
(FHSS)
• Infrared 67
1. EEE 802.11a :
68
 Channel Structure: IEEE 802.11a makes use
of the frequency band called the Universal
Networking Information Infrastructure
(UNNI), which is divided into three parts. The
UNNI-1 band (5.15 to 5.25 GHz) is intended
for indoor use; the UNNI-2 band (5.25 to 5.35
GHz) can be used either indoor or outdoor,
and the UNNI-3 band (5.725 to 5.825 GHz) is
for outdoor use 69
 Coding and Modulation: Unlike the 2.4-GHz
specifications, IEEE 802.11 does not use a spread
spectrum scheme but rather uses orthogonal
frequency division multiplexing (OFDM).
70
 Physical-Layer Frame Structure: The
primary purpose of the physical layer is
to transmit medium access control (MAC)
protocol data units (MPDUs) as directed
by the 802.11 MAC layer. The PLCP sublayer
provides the framing and signaling
bits needed for the OFDM transmission and
the PDM sublayer performs the actual
encoding and transmission operation
71
72
 IEEE 80211.a has several advantages over IEEE
802.11b/g:
• IEEE 802.11a utilizes more available bandwidth than
802.11b/g. Each UNNI band provides four
nonoverlapping channels for a total of 12 across the
allocated spectrum.
• IEEE 802.11a provides much higher data rates than
802.11b and the same maximum data rate as 802.11g.
• IEEE 802.11a uses a different, relatively uncluttered
73
frequency spectrum (5 GHz).
2. IEEE 802.11b
 Physical-Layer Frame Structure IEEE
802.11b defines two physical-layer frame formats,
which differ only in the length of the preamble.The
long preamble of 144 bits is the same as used in the
original 802.11 DSSS scheme and allows
interoperability with other legacy systems.The short
preamble of 72 bits provides improved throughput
efficiency 74
75
• Signal: Specifies the data rate at which the MPDU portion of the frame is
transmitted.
• Service: Only 3 bits of this 8-bit field are used in 802.11b. One bit indicates
whether the transmit frequency and symbol clocks use the same local
oscillator. Another bit indicates whether CCK or PBCC encoding is used. A
third bit acts as an extension to the Length subfield.
• Length: Indicates the length of the MPDU field by specifying the number
of microseconds necessary to transmit the MPDU. Given the data rate, the
length of the MPDU in octets can be calculated. For any data rate over 8
Mbps, the length extension bit from the Service field is needed to resolve a
rounding ambiguity
.• CRC: A 16-bit error detection code used to protect the Signal, Service, and
Length fields 76
3. IEEE 802.11g :
 IEEE 802.11g extends 802.11b to data rates above 20
Mbps, up to 54 Mbps. Like 802.11b, 802.11g operates
in the 2.4-GHz range and thus the two are
compatible. The standard is designed so that 802.11b
devices will work when connected to an
802.11g AP, and 802.11g devices will work when
connected to an 802.11b AP, in both cases using the
lower 802.11b data rate. 77
 IEEE 802.11g offers a wider array of data rate and
modulation scheme options. IEEE 802.11g provides
compatibility with 802.11 and 802.11b by specifying the
same modulation and framing schemes as these standards
for 1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbps. At data rates of 6, 9, 12, 18,
24, 36, 48, and 54 Mbps, 802.11g adopts the 802.11a
OFDM scheme, adapted for the 2.4 GHz rate; this is
referred to as ERPOFDM, with ERP standing for
extended rate physical layer. In addition, and ERPPBCC
scheme is used to provide data rates of 22 and 33 Mbps. 78
 The IEEE 802.11 standards do not include a
specification of speed versus distance
objectives. Different vendors will give
different values, depending on environment.
Table 17.5, based on [LAYL04] gives
estimated values for a typical office
environment.
