Case Study: Multi-User Functionality
 PT 5.0 is a network-capable (peer to peer) application.
(PT 4.11 is a standalone application)
 If PT 5.0 on MY computer can communicate with PT 5.0 on YOUR
computer, we can have Collaborative and Competitive Network
building, using the real network to carry the Packet Tracer virtual
packets
 This connectivity between multiple instances of PT will support
teamwork, classroom games, instructor consoles, and remote
instructor-student and student-student interactions
