Undergraduate Telcommunication Networks Laboratory

仪器和实验室改进-仪器项目将导致一个本科实验室的发展，以支持电信和网络教学。该实验室将强化概念，提供理论和实践问题的见解，并培养学生在网络设计和性能评估方面的专业知识。该实验室的设计将具有灵活性，并将支持多种环境，以提供各种学习体验，并促进在其他课程中的使用。实验室的关键组件包括网络主机，共享和交换以太网，无线局域网设备，网络监控和管理工具，以及作为实时音频和视频流量源的硬件和软件。这种语音、视频和数据的整合符合行业趋势，并使学生参与到学习过程中。将制定实验室配置指南和模块化实验室手册，并通过万维网提供。

This Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement-Instrumentation Project will lead to the development of an undergraduate laboratory to support instruction in telecommunications and networks. The laboratory will reinforce concepts, provide insight into both theoretical and practical issues, and develop the students expertise in network design and performance evaluation. The laboratory will be designed for flexibility and will support multiple environments to offer a variety of learning experiences and to facilitate use in other courses. Key components of the laboratory include network hosts, both shared and switched Ethernet networks, wireless local area network equipment, network monitoring and management tools, and hardware and software to serve as real-time audio and video traffic sources. This integration of voice, video, and data matches industry trends and engages students in the learning process. Laboratory configuration guidelines and a modular laboratory manual will be developed and made available via the World Wide Web.
