Nt1210 Network Communication

1)A network is when two or more computers are connected together and are able to share data and communication.

A LAN is a ‘Local Area Network’. It is a small network of computers most often

A Wide Area Network ( WAN) is a computer network covering multiple distance areas, which may spread across the entire world. WANs often connect

A computer and a server are usually two unique and separate devices and each are customized to handle specific functions and purposes. For example a web server will not need any type of display or monitor and can be located anywhere. But when it comes to a data server or client, there is typically a need for some form of display monitor so information can be reviewed and tracked. It is not uncommon in some occurrences that a device can function both as a computer and a server for the same application. This also can hold true for a application act as a client to other server for various other

Workstation: A workstation is an area accessed by a user. There are many different types of workstations, but the network workstation makes sure that they are connected to an office LAN so they can access other workstations if needed. It can be used for any job, such as gaming designer, video editing, architect ect. The network workstation allows people to share their files to any other workstation as long as they are connected on the LAN.

A Router is a Layer 3 or Network layer device that connects a network to another network. It connects networks with the same protocol such as RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and IP (Internet Protocol).

LAN stands for Local Area Network. LAN is a type of network that interconnects computers and devices either wired or wireless and covers a greater distance. LAN is mainly used in private organisations such as college or university. More or less everyone uses wireless router at home these days and the user is able to connect between 5-10 devices wirelessly. The user can share the broadband or the connection with ADSL by using Ethernet cables. Smaller LANs can connect at least

Simply put, a topology is that the layout of a network. There are extremely 3 basic kinds of topologies. they're Star, Bus, and Ring. Let me justify them to you.

Some of the networking basics are discussed below like TCP, UDP, TCP/IP, and OSI model.

12. A TCP/IP network includes an Ethernet LAN with 10 PCs uses a LAN switch. PC1 sends data intended for an app running on PC2. Which of the following mechanisms does Ethernet define so that PC2 receives and processes the data? The Ethernet header lists PC2’s MAC address so that PC2 will realize that the data is meant for PC2

Third, there is a set of software that allows the computer to send data across this network. There are a lot

server as an entity that provides the resources to the network. A client is defined as an entity

A LAN is a network of computers in a specific area interconnect using a variety of network media. For example, WBHS LAN are all the computers connected to the WBHS network via Ethernet, Wi-fi or other. This is different from a WAN (Wide area network) which extends to a much wider area such as a town, city and country. LAN are usually more restricted in access and more numerous.

A server is a node on the network that provides services to the users of that network. A server will manage hardware and software resources or monitor the exchange of information through a network. Each server will respond to the requests of a user and provide a service, like printing a document or retrieving a stored file. There are two basic types of servers: Dedicated and Non-dedicated.

All the computers, in the logically and physically networks have to follow the same rules known as Protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/SPX and NETBEUI etc. Today, there are many computer networking technologies such as LAN, MAN, WAN, WLAN, ISDN, ATM, Frame Relay, X.25, Bluetooth,
