This paper reveals how all BACnet devices can effectively share a common IP network — thereby enhancing the power and convenience of BACnet. They operate on the Network layer (Layer 3) of the OSI model and in contradiction to hubs, bridges, and switches, routers are protocol-aware. I will start reading some non Cisco books like Interconnections, bridges, routers, switches and internetworking protocols by Radia Perlman before going for the Cisco Press books.

Thomas Gronke on January 8, 2013 at 12:27 am said: Radia Perlman's book is “Interconnections: Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internetworking Protocols”. Radia Perlman is something of a legend in the networking industry. The second edition is much expanded over the first edition. I believe second edition (1999) is the latest edition. Perlman, Interconnections: Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internet-working Protocols, 2nd ed., Addison-Wesley Professional Computing Series, Reading, MA, 1999. Interconnections, Second Edition: Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internetworking Protocols, by Radia Perlman. She is the author of the textbook "Interconnections: Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internetworking Protocols", and coauthor of "Network Security". Building Automation and Control Network (BACnet) protocol was introduced in the mid-90s using four of the seven layers of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model as shown in Figure 1. Like most networking people of a certain age, I cut my teeth on her terrific book, Interconnections: Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internetworking Protocols. Examples of these network protocols are IP, IPX, and AppleTalk. Interconnections Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internetworking Protocols. Why are BACnet plugfest participants encouraged to attach to an IP network when testing for interoperability?
