#02 Connecting HCPS with WANs and LANs

As I mentioned in my first post, redsign of our new WAN will begin in late March or early April. Most of the construction you will notice will probably be in the form of digging trenches.
The most important thing we expect from our network redesign is a reliable WAN.

The WAN connects each school's Local Area Network (LAN). Each school's LAN will in turn be operated and maintained by our technical staff. For everything to work like you expect three networks have to operate together:
  1. LAN connects your PC to the WAN
  2. WAN connects your LAN to the Internet
  3. Internet connects you to the world
  4. ...and the hip bone is connected to the leg bone.
