1668.0. "LAN segment's management" by MLNCSC::MILANA (Patior ut Potiar...NETWORKS:) Thu Oct 17 1991 13:45

    Hi all,
    	I've got a very basic question from a potential customer:
    
    Environment:TCP/IP
    Hardware:	Various Sun, I*M &compatibles, HP, DEC (4000s & 3x00s)
    Software:	Various flavours of Unix
    
    "I've a multi-segment LAN, with bridges as needed," he says, "what
    level of detail can I reach when manageing entities on segments
    other than the one where the platform resides?
    In particular, what if a malicious user comes and connects a
    portable and, by improperly setting up this new entity, jams the
    normal behaviour of that segment (if not the whole LAN)?"
    
    Thanks in advance for any hints,
    Giuseppe.
