Opis

This is one of the first books to provide a comprehensive description of OPNET^® IT Guru and Modeler software. The book explains how to use the software for simulating and modeling computer networks and includes laboratory projects that help readers learn different aspects of the software in a hands-on way. The authors illustrate how to develop and configure models for every layer of the TCP/IP reference model. They also offer extensive examples that show how to set up and configure many nontrivial features of OPNET software.
