"A wireless local area network (WLAN) links two or more devices using some wireless distribution method (typically spread-spectrum or OFDM radio), and usually providing a connection through an access point to the wider Internet. This gives users the ability to move around within a local coverage area and still be connected to the network. Most modern WLANs are based on IEEE 802.11 standards, marketed under the Wi-Fi brand name. WLANs were once called LAWNs (for local area wireless network) by the Department of Defense." [Wireless LAN.

"Wireless mesh/ ad hoc networking is a promising technology for future broadband wireless access, supporting ubiquitous communications and mobile computing. Wireless mesh/ ad hoc networking provides not only a viable, but also economical solution for both peer-to-peer applications and Internet access. Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) and wireless mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) can be established via LTE/ LTE-A, IEEE 802.16, or IEEE 802.11 technologies. Nonetheless, the success of WMNs/ MANETs is highly contingent on effective radio resource management and robust protocol design. Recently, wireless mesh/ ad hoc networking for suburban/ rural residential areas has been attracting a plethora of attention from industry and academia. With austere suburban/ rural networking environments, multi-hop communications with decentralized resource allocation are desired. Specific contributions of this ongoing research include: Distributed Call Admission Control (CAC) and End-to-End Resource Allocation." [bbcr.uwaterloo.ca/ ~htcheng/ Current_ Projects.html]

Cisco Network Templates

Cisco Network Templates
Cisco is a huge multinational company that develops and sells worldwide the]network equipment, mainly for large organizations and telecommunication companies. So, it has large number of enterprise clients in a corporate environment. Therefore many network engineers often draw the Network diagrams for Cisco hardware and are needed in a powerful vector drawing software. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is ideal for this goal, enhanced with professional Cisco Network Diagrams solution from Computer and Networks area of ConceptDraw Solution Park it offers a wide variety of vector design objects libraries, samples and also large set of Cisco network templates. The use of templates is the easiest and time-saving way of drawing professional-looking diagrams and schematics. Use them to design Cisco Network Topologies, Cisco Network Diagrams, Cisco ISG Topology Diagrams, Cisco Express Forwarding Diagrams, Rack Diagrams, Network Organization Charts, Wireless Computer Network Diagrams, Vehicular Network Diagrams, and many other types of diagrams without efforts.
