JANET

   (JANET) The wide area network which links UK academic and
   research institutes.  JANET is controlled by the Joint
   Network Team (JNT) and Network Executive (NE).  It is an
   internet (a large number of interconnected sub-networks)
   that provides connectivity within the community as well as
   access to external services and other communities.  The hub
   is the JANET subnetwork, a private X.25 packet-switched
   network that interconnects over 100 sites.  At the majority of
   sites, local area networks (LANs) are connected to JANET
   allowing off-site access for the computers and terminals
   connected to these networks.  The Coloured Book protocol
   architecture is used to support interactive terminal access to
   computers (for both character terminals and screen terminals),
   inter-host file transfers, electronic mail and remote
   batch job submission.
