Fixed Base and Deployed Operations Tenets (2 of 2)
Implementation tenets
- Network will security-protect nodes and transmissions between nodes with network/boundary protection and TRANSEC functions
- COMSEC protection will be accomplished outside the network using appliance based security devices
- Network will be implemented with commercial off-the-shelf equipment to the maximum extent possible
- Network will be heterogeneous; i.e, includes IP/ATM, IP, IPv6, FDDI, etc.
- Network equipment provided to fixed and deployed units will have the same look and feel, as a minimum, and as a goal be identical
- Network equipment for deployed operations will be packaged for rapid deployment and efficient airlift (e.g., minimized size and weight)
