Internetworking<br />

Internetworking is<br />

• based on the interconnection (concatenation) of multiple networks<br />

• accommodates multiple underlying hardware technologies by providing<br />

a way to interconnect heterogeneous networks and makes them<br />

inter-operate - via a common network layer.<br />

These interconnections have technical, political, and regulatory effects.<br />

⇒ Rise of truly international operators - one logical network independent of<br />

geography (independent of the fact that it is built of multiple cooperating &<br />

competing networks)<br />
