Abstract
The seven layer Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) protocol reference model has achieved the goal of dividing network operations into distinct implementation modules. High level protocols shield the user from activities occurring at the lower levels. Unfortunately, these high level protocols also keep the user from seeing low level problems that can cause insidious network events. The LANalyzer EX 5000E is an Ethernet network analysis tool created to provide insight into network problems, and to assist in the debugging of network applications and protocols. This paper discusses the conception and implementation of the EX 5000E. Design tradeoffs are addressed, and the hardware and software architecture of the product is explained.
