Network operating systems (NOS) are some of the most powerful and complex software products available today. This tutorial looks at a number of operating systems that are widely used in today's network environments.
In this tutorial, we will also look at the interoperability capabilities of each network operating system and at the range of client support it provides. However, the information described in this tutorial is not intended to provide a complete tutorial in any of the operating systems discussed.
