Utilisation of Subnetworks Through Distributed Gateway

There is increasing use of Internet in a LAN environment. Reliance on hardware and software that are mostly costly and difficult to maintain brings about problems for organisations with a small budget. Moreover, many networks available in these types of organisations, especially schools and colleges...
