WANs A wide-area network (WAN) is a data
communications network spanning a large geographic area
Major characteristics of WANs: Connect devices that are separated by wide
geographical areas. Use the services of carriers such as the Regional Bell
Operating Companies (RBOCs), Sprint, MCI, and VPM Internet Services, Inc. TSTT, Cable and Wireless (Ja) to establish the link or connection between sites.
Use serial connections of various types to access bandwidth over large geographic areas
Operate at the physical layer and the data link layer of the OSI reference model

WANs The following devices are used in WANs:
Routers provide internetworking and WAN interface ports.
Switches provide connectivity for voice, data, and video communication.
Modems include interface voice-grade services, channel service units/digital service units (CSU/DSUs) for T1/E1 services, and Terminal Adapters/Network Termination 1 (TA/NT1s) for ISDN services.
Communication servers concentrate dial-in and dial-out user communication.

WAN Protocols WAN data link protocols describe how
frames are carried between systems on a single data link
Protocols are designed to operate over dedicated point-to-point, multipoint, and multi-access switched services such as Frame Relay

Routers Router has the following components:
CPU Memory System Bus Input/Output Interfaces
Routers connect and allow communication between two networks and determine the best path for data to travel through the connected networks
Routers has Internetwork Operating System software (IOS) to run configuration files
Configuration files contain the instructions and parameters that control the flow of traffic in and out of the routers

LANs, but they are mainly used as WAN devices

Routers Routers have both LAN and WAN
interfaces The two main functions of a router
Selection of best path Switching of frames to the proper interface
Routers accomplish this by building routing tables and exchanging network information with other routers

WANs and the OSI Model A WAN operates at the physical layer and at
the data link layer The WAN physical layer describes the
interface between the data terminal equipment (DTE) and the data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE) DCE connects to the service provider (eg. Via
modem) DTE (router), the services offered to the DTE
are made available through a modem or a CSU/DSU

Routers The main function of a router is to transmit
data using Layer 3 addresses This process is also called routing. Routing
occurs at the network layer, which is Layer 3
If a WAN operates at Layers 1, 2, and 3, is a router a LAN device or a WAN device? The answer is both, as is so often the case in the
field of networking. A router may be exclusively a LAN device, it may be exclusively a WAN device, or it may sit at the boundary between a LAN and a WAN and be a LAN and WAN device at the same time.
![Page 31: Wa ns and routers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042614/559ecb031a28abc3338b4638/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Routers
One of the roles of a router in a WAN is to route packets at Layer 3, but this is also a role of a router in a LAN
Therefore routing is not strictly a WAN role of a router When a router uses the physical and data
link layer standards and protocols that are associated with WANs, it is operating as a WAN device
![Page 32: Wa ns and routers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042614/559ecb031a28abc3338b4638/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Routers Therefore, the main role of a router in a
WAN is not to route, it is to provide connections between the various WAN physical and data-link standards
These standards and protocols that define and structure a WAN connection operate at Layers 1 and 2
The router must be able to move a stream of bits from one type of service, such as ISDN, to another, such as a T1, and change the data link encapsulation from PPP to Frame Relay

Labs In the lab, all the networks will be connected
with serial or Ethernet cables and the students can see and physically touch all the equipment
In the real world serial cables are not connected back to back
In the lab, devices that make up the WAN cloud are simulated by the connection between the back-to-back DTE-DCE cables; the connection from one router interface s0/0 to another router interface s0/1 simulates the whole circuit cloud

Connecting WAN Interfaces WAN connection types are leased line, circuit-
switched, and packet-switched For each type of WAN service, the customer
premises equipment (CPE), often a router, is the data terminal equipment (DTE)
Service provider uses a data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE) device, commonly a modem or channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU), which converts the data from the DTE into a form acceptable to the WAN service provider

63
Connecting WAN Interfaces Selecting the proper serial cable:
What is the type of connection to the Cisco device?
Is the network system being connected to a DTE or DCE device?
What signaling standard does the device require?
What is the gender of the connector required on the cable? If the connector has visible projecting pins, it is male. If the connector has sockets for projecting pins, it is female
