A distributed military premises network architecture for campus-like applications

The authors propose a distributed military premises network architecture (DIPNET) for a wide range of campuslike military premises integrated services digital network (ISDN) applications. DIPNET is to offer integrated voice, data, and video services to the end-users for both premises network and network interface applications, and it has taken the network security, survivability, reconfigurability, and ISDN interface requirements into the design considerations. DIPNET conforms with the military communications goals of standardized interfaces and intelligent premises networks.<>
