<p>This thesis reports the findings of a simulation comparing network architecture configurations in terms of interactions and performance in the face of varying traffic demand. It models the U. S. Marine Corps Base Level Information Infrastructure using a top-down approach. Extend(R) queuing theory modeling software was used to decompose the network model with a bottom-up approach to testing and integration. Feasible network configurations were identified and modeled under varying load parameters. Asynchronous Transfer Mode was found to be suited as a distribution protocol at the infrastructure levels of backbone and area distribution node. Fast Ethernet and Ethernet were found to be 0 optimal at lower levels of infrastructure. Network design recommendations are made for network engineers.
