Abstract

During Operation Desert Storm, the US military used a packet-switched wide area network (WAN) to support the Army Central Forces Command and Control Information System (AC2IS) for the first time. The lessons learned from the difficulties encountered connecting a digital computer network using tactical signaling and switching equipment are outlined. The communications support which was available in Saudi Arabia, the AC2IS WAN configuration, and the performance of the packet switches used in the network are described. Operational statistics of circuit performance are presented. >
