See blurb below. Please excuse this message if you've already received it through another list. John Wobus Syracuse University ------------------------------- BIG-LAN@SUVM (Bitnet)(Internet) This list is for the discussion of issues in designing and operating Campus-Size Local Area Networks, especially complex ones utilizing multiple technologies and supporting multiple protocols. Topics include repeaters, bridges, routers and gateways; how to incorporate smaller Personal-Computer type LANs into the campus-wide LAN; how to unify the mail systems, etc. This is an ideal list in which to debate the relative merits of bridges vs routers. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to BIG-REQ@SUVM (Bitnet) or (Internet). Those familiar with revised LISTSERV can subscribe with LISTSERV@SUVM (Bitnet) or (Internet). Archives are available through revised LISTSERV. Coordinator: John Wobus
