1. Network architecture¶

Figure 1 : Architecture of a classical telecommunication network using PEP

This figure shows a classical network using PEP. It is asymmetric because on one side of the satellite link we have a server and on the other side we have all the terminals.

In this project we can not use a real satellite so we need to emulate this link. Consequently the network architecture we want to implement is quite different and is shown on the next figure.
