Communication networks may be designed for general use (general purpose network in accordance with Article 12 of the Federal Law On Communications) and limited use (dedicated networks, process networks, special purpose networks in accordance with Article 12 of the Federal Law On Communications).
In the former case, a network is established for the provision of telecom services against payment to any user within the Russian Federation and includes telecom networks defined geographically within the territory served and the number pool, as well as communication networks defined by the technology for the provision of telecommunication services.
Dedicated networks are designed to provide telecom services to a limited number of users or groups of such users against payment.
Process networks are intended to ensure the productive activities of organisations, controlling technological processes in production.
Special purpose communication networks are intended for the needs of public authorities, national defence, state security, and law enforcement.
In terms of the origin, these can be primary networks used to form typical communication channels and pathways, and secondary networks based on primary networks whose purpose is to deliver messages from source to consumer. Primary networks fall into trunk networks, intra-zone networks, and local networks.
There are also other criteria for classifying communication networks. They include the following ones:
- By territory coverage: local, corporate, long-distance, international, trunk, regional;
- By type of information transmitted: analogue, digital;
- By accommodation conditions: mobile, stationary;
- By degree of automation: automated, automatic, non-automated;
- By switching type: switched, non-switched, partially switched;
- By communication type: telephone, telegraph, video-telephone, fax, data transmission, audio, television;
- By communication modality: wired and radio networks;
- By protection degree: protected and unprotected;
- By message delivery method: circuit-switched and packet-switched.
An elementary network consists of one branch between two nodes. More sophisticated versions have a spatial structure called a topology. It can be ring-type, star-type, directly-connected or tree-type.
Data may be transmitted either via fibre optic, or electrical lines, or wireless network.
