Abstract
Current scientific and trade literature are flooded with information about local area networks. Details about
physical media and their properties, versions of media access methods confusingly called protocols, variations of
ARQ protocols, and information about file servers, name servers, gateways and so on proliferate the literature.
This review article puts the various aspects of local area networks in perspective and points out some of the
imix>rtant considerations when evaluating such a network.
