Problem Description n 12/7/2020 Non-traditional distance learning, such as the internet and televised courses, has brought to the forefront the need for off campus-based local area networking (LAN) experiments. Needed is a process of delivering the same laboratory learning experience on limited off campus computer resources. 3
