This is a reminder that there is an electronic-mail "list" or "discussion group" dedicated to campus-sized networks. I created it largely because I saw messages on the TCP-IP list that were really more about campus-sized networks than about TCP-IP and thought it would be nice to have a place where we wouldn't feel guilty discussing the stuff. You are welcome to join this list (which typically has about half the volume of TCP-IP). See the "blurb" below. John Wobus Syracuse University =------------------- BIG-LAN@SUVM.ACS.SYR.EDU (Internet) BIG-LAN@SUVM (Bitnet) 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.ACS.SYR.EDU (Internet) or BIG-REQ@SUVM (Bitnet). Those familiar with revised LISTSERV can subscribe with LISTSERV@SUVM.ACS.SYR.EDU (Internet) or LISTSERV@SUVM (Bitnet). Archives are available through revised LISTSERV.
