What Is a Simple Cell?

A simple cell:

· Contains fewer than 50 hosts

· Provides service to fewer than 100 users

· Has no single-point-of-failure requirement on its services

· Has DCE core services residing on one or multiple server machines

· Has machines and users connected only by a LAN

Simple cells may be less reliable than complex cells if they adopt a failsoft configuration.
