Abstract
Appropriate hardware and software network protocols are surveyed for accelerator control environments. Accelerator control network topologies are discussed with respect to the following criteria: vertical versus horizontal and distributed versus centralized. Decision-making considerations are provided for accelerator network architecture specifications. Current trends and implementations at Fermilab are discussed.<>
