Computer Science Data Network

As all web documents seem to be, this is a work in progress. Bear with us and keep in mind that much of the data presented here is subject to change.

Sitterson's networking infrastructure is composed almost entirely of cabletron switches connected to a Gige backbone. The network is largely flat, with only 1-2 special purpose routers in place. The mimium speed of data connection provided is 100Mbps.
