I still remember the day I was introduced to the Internet. With my first hotmail email id, I struck up a friendship with a netizen from Dalian. I learned about his culture, his family, and his country. I was truly mesmerized by what the Internet could enable!
Later on in school, I learned C++, communication theory, and Internet basics, thus sparking my interest in making a mark in the field of communication. I excelled at academics and topped my class in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, with an aggregate of 96%. In keeping with my marked inclination for the field of communications, I joined the Electronics and Communication program at National Institute of Technology, Karnataka, a college that boasts of one of the best courses for this

During my third year, while attending a lecture on the OSI layer, I was profoundly intrigued by the complexity of the internet, as well as the simplicity of the flow of data between the layers. To explore this interest, I completed the CCNA- R&S and CCNP- R&S certification courses. That summer, I was the only undergrad in my college who was offered an internship at Cisco Systems. At Cisco, I developed a tool which automates the Bill of Material for customers to transition from their existing switches (3800 series) to a new category of switches (4500 series). Owing to my good performance as an intern, I was offered a full-time job at Cisco.
In my final year of college, I submitted a thesis under the guidance of Dr. N.S.V. Shet, in which I proposed an alternative model of Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) to better utilize bandwidth for the campus network at my college. This involved simulation of the existing design and analysis of traffic flow using Wireshark. Then, I executed a geographical survey to determine the ideal locations for the access points for the WMN and subsequently conducted an analysis of the ideal protocol to be used, and simulated it in NS-2. Also, as part of my Communication Networks course, I submitted a report on Congestion Control in Frame-Relay. My primary focus was how congestion control is realized in Frame-Relay. Apart from this I also explained the protocol architecture, frame format and the behaviour of frame-relay network i.e. the manner in
You will discover different network topologies and different types of networks: LANs, WANs, and internetworks (internets). The concept of switching is discussed to show how small networks can be combined to create larger ones. You will learn about the Internet: its early history, the birth of the Internet, and the issues related to the Internet today. This module covers standards and standards organizations.
contains the case narrative, related figures, and a set of questions and problems. These do not have one unique solution. There are too many alternatives when dealing with LANs, WANs, MANs, BNs, and the Internet, so a reallife network design and development problem can have several workable answers.
The two authors follow the story from the conception of the idea of "packet switching" in the early 1960s to the creation and development of the Internet. We see how one idea led to another and how the intelligent people around the circumstances influenced the developments.
My undergraduate career, presented the opportunity to disclose the full range of communication sciences courses, all of which inclined to strengthen and harden my concentrated interest in Speech-Language
I remember anxiously waiting for my older brother to connect to the internet through dial up for the first time. I would constantly pester my brother with questions about how images appeared on this magical box. Never before in my life had I ever used anything like it. Knowing that any simple form of interference such as picking up a phone would cut off the connection, I had to learn how to make the most out of my time and constantly save the progress of any software or game that was open.
The moment that I feel was an eye opener for me, was as I thought about all the things that one can accomplish through the use of the internet. But also all the damage that the internet can cause. So many have taken social
The focus of this paper is to delve into possible career opportunities that might be available with the skills and education that I am gaining at BYUI and especially from my CIT 240 networking class.
Cisco has been a top organization in the information and technology world. CISCO has made the future of the Internet by generating astonishing value and opportunity for their customers, employees, investors and partners and has become the universal leader in networking, communication and collaboration (“CISCO the Network”, n.d.).
It was the time to water the seeds of VLSI that were sown earlier. In 2010, I completed my schooling from Ahlcon International School, Delhi. This marked the culmination of a 12-year period of brilliant schooling and I must admit that much of what I have gone on to do and achieve is the result of those years. In August 2011, I enrolled for a 4-year Bachelor’s Program at Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida and opted for Electronics and Communication as my Major. I have spent the past few years in an atmosphere of proactive and vibrant academics. Amidst students drawn from every corner of India and a faculty of highly qualified and widely travelled mentors, I have flowered. I remember my teacher, Professor Satyendra Kumar, walk into the first class of Basic Electronic Devices and Circuits and write on the board “The Next Big Thing Is Really Small.” And I knew I was in the right
In Routers and Switches we learned several things such as: what is a Router, why we need Routers, what is the importance of a Router. We also learned what VLSM is and how to do it and use it. Throughout CCNA we learned how to configure a Router; the different types of Routing protocols and most importantly what, when and how to use those protocols in the field. Finally I will discuss Switches in how they are use to set up a LAN. Throughout this paper these topic will be discuss to cover what was learned through class lecture and text book (CCNA study guide by Lammle) and actually applied through hands on labs which were done with actual Cisco Router and Switches within a working LAN and Ethernet connection
With this paper, we hope to achieve several goals. First, we hope to raise awareness of the need for network administration. Second, we hope to demonstrate the need for an academic course in
In this document I will be detailing the different common network components which make up a network, connecting all the various devices together. Each device has a separate use; however, some devices can replace or supplement others.
Technologies related to internetworking is growing rapidly day by day. “A network is a group of connected, communicating devices such as computers and printers.” [1] When two or more networks exists and communicate with each other, it is known as an internet. We know, Internet is the most notable internet, which is composed of thousands of interconnected networks [1]. Any individual or any organization such as
The internet, with all its available uses and forms, has affected our lives more than any other event in our life time due to its powerful impact both culturally and politically. Never before have we been as connected to the world around us and yet still be in the same portion of the universe. Now with the click of a button we can access tremendous amounts of information, keep updated to the minute on news around the world, and communicate directly with friends and family near and far.
I started gaining research experience during my undergraduate program after taking a networking course. Then, with my personal studies on routing and switching, I established a serious interest and anxiety to know why our campus lab’s network was always down. It was a serious research issue because I bent on knowing the cause of the problems and possible solutions to solve such problems. It was then that I discovered that the problem in our University Campus network had to do with security issues and network overload, delays were introduced during packet transactions. The network was built on a flat architecture where every node in the whole network communicates on a single channel. The Campus Lab network had one broadcast domain, and
