Application Requirements

Before designing a WAN, it is important to understand the requirements of each application and how it performs on the network. There are numerous applications available; Table 4-2generalizes some of the applications. The MAN/WAN should be able to provide the requirements that each application demands to obtain maximum efficiency.
