This manual concentrates on tactical local area network (LAN) management at echelons corps and below (ECB). Command and control (C2) systems in a tactical LAN are integrated to collect, combine, process, exchange and present information to support the commander across the battlefield. The commander can effectively plan, coordinate, control, and direct the battle when the proper procedures in establishing, managing, and maintaining a tactical LAN are met. This manual outlines the responsibilities and procedures that apply to all levels of command.
