I found this definition of Global Networks:
Currently does any Global Network exists (apart from Internet)? Can someone Quote some examples? Or non-global but on a country-wide scale(ATM network maybe)?
Doesn't every other WAN network comes under the category of "Enterprise Network"?
I want to know are there any other global networks other than the internet?
Also, I was reading about Transport layer protocol when this line caught my eye:
More than one transport layer protocol may be available to network applications. For example, the internet has two protocols - TCP and UDP. Each of these protocols provides a different set of transport layer services to in invoking applications
more specifically this line:
For example, the internet has two protocols -TCP and UDP
What are some examples of non-internet Transport layer protocols?
The book briefly talked about Telephone network
as WAN(Apart from the internet). But that implemented circuit-switched network
. I doubt that those even had a Transport layer protocol. So, is there any other network that provides Transport-Layer services
?
global network
apart fromInternet
that may or may not use a different protocol for the transport layer
