碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 工程科學系 === 84 === Local Area Networks (LANs) are widely used to connect computers,workstations and terminal equipment together inside organizations. Due tothe proliferation of distributed systems and the development of real timeapplications, the network traffic problem is become serious. A goodunderstanding of traffic distribution and patterns becomes critical innetwork control and performance management. In this thesis, we develop a network traffic flow monitor, executed onthe PC platform, communication process of the server and the workstationsbased on the Novell NetWare environment. The monitor can perform trafficanalysis, detection the active machines and their utilization andmaintaining the information associated with the network in the database.Which is used to understand the traffic distribution and patterns. Thequeueing model is used to analyze the traffic flow distribution and patternsto help the network manager to solve the network traffic problem. The following tasks have been done on this study: (1) How to monitor theNovell network. (2) Study of the performance model for evaluation theCSMA/CD. (3) Simulate the CSMA/CD network. (4) Understand the communicationprotocol of the NetWare system. (5) Develop a monitor to observe the networktraffic and evaluate the traffic distribution
