Local area network training system consists of LTS-01 LAN / WLAN training system, L-SIM LAN protocol simulator & analyzer software, Wireless LAN cards, Access Point and LAN connection cables. LTS-01 LAN / WLAN training system is designed to help students understand the basic concepts, modes of operation and protocols involved in networking. The trainer has integrated hardware flow control on panel board for better understanding of different types of LAN topologies involved in networking. The trainer system is provided with user-friendly software with analysis of protocols, different layers, network and measurement of error rate and throughput. Students can easily do connections in different topologies and can learn actual data transfer either through hardware or through simulated network concept. Facility is provided into system software to introduce errors into packets being sent and analyze the effect of error on different protocols and hence find the effect on throughput graph as well. Trainer is supported with neat operating instruction manual and online help in the software window for better understanding of system and various types of experimentation using this system.
