For the remainder of this book, let me introduce a new example
|
|
that is less complex than Groucho Marx University, and may be closer
|
|
to the tasks you will actually encounter. Consider the Virtual
|
|
Brewery, a small company that brews, as the name indicates, virtual
|
|
beer. To manage their business more efficiently, the virtual brewers
|
|
want to network their computers, which all happen to be PCs running
|
|
a bright and shiny 1.0.
|
|
<P>
|
|
On the same floor, just across the hall, there's the Virtual Winery,
|
|
who work closely with the brewery. They run an Ethernet of their own.
|
|
Quite naturally, the two companies want to link their networks once
|
|
they are operational. As a first step, they want to set up a gateway
|
|
host that forwards datagrams between the two subnets. Later, they also
|
|
want to have a UUCP link to the outside world, through which they
|
|
exchange mail and news. In the long run, the also want to set up a
|
|
SLIP connection to connect to the Internet occasionally.
