Networking
• Computer network A collection of
computing devices that are connected in
various ways in order to communicate and
share resources.
15-1
Networking
• The generic term node or host refers to
any device on a network
• Data transfer rate The speed with which
data is moved from one place on a
network to another
15-2
Networking
• client/server model
15-3
Networking
• File server A computer that stores and
manages files for multiple users on a
network
• Web server A computer dedicated to
responding to requests (from the browser
client) for web pages
15-4
Types of Networks
• Local-area network (LAN) A network
that connects a relatively small number of
machines in a relatively close
geographical area
15-5
Types of Networks
• Various configurations, called topologies, have
been used to administer LANs
– Ring topology A configuration that connects all
nodes in a closed loop on which messages travel in
one direction
– Star topology A configuration that centers around
one node to which all others are connected and
through which all messages are sent
– Bus topology All nodes are connected to a single
communication line that carries messages in both
directions
15-6
Types of Networks
• bus technology is Ethernet
15-10
Types of Networks
• Wide-area network (WAN) A network that
connects two or more local-area networks over a
potentially large geographic distance
gateway is a node on a LAN that handle all communication going
between that LAN and other networks
Internet is a very huge WAN
15-8
Types of Networks
• Metropolitan-area network (MAN) The
communication infrastructures that have
been developed in and around large cities
15-9
Types of Networks
WAN
15-10
Internet Connections
• Internet backbone A set of high-speed
networks that carry Internet traffic
• Internet service provider (ISP) A
company that provides access to the
Internet
15-11
Internet Connections
• There are various technologies available that you can
use to connect a home computer to the Internet
– A phone modem converts computer data into an analog
audio signal for transfer over a telephone line, and then a
modem at the destination converts it back again into data
– A digital subscriber line (DSL) uses regular copper phone
lines to transfer digital data to and from the phone company’s
central office
– A cable modem uses the same line that your cable TV
signals come in on to transfer the data back and forth
15-12
Internet Connections
• Broadband A connection in which transfer
speeds are faster than 128 bits per second
– DSL connections and cable modems are broadband
connections
15-13
Packet Switching
• messages are divided into fixed-sized, numbered
packets
• Routers is Network devices used to direct packets
between networks
15-18
Network Protocols
15-15
TCP/IP
• TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol
1- breaks messages into packets
2- hands them off to the IP software
3- orders and reassembles the packets at their destination
• IP stands for Internet Protocol
1- routing of packets through networks to their final destination
15-16
TCP/IP (cont.)
• UDP stands for User Datagram Protocol
– It is an alternative to TCP
TCP
UDP
More Reliable
More faster
15-17
High-Level Protocols
• High level protocols build on the
foundation TCP/IP protocol:
1. Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
2. File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
3. Telnet
4. Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (http)
15-18
15-19
Firewalls
• Firewall A machine and its software that
serve as a special gateway to a network,
protecting it from inappropriate access
– Filter the network traffic that comes in
– Check the validity of the messages
15-20
Firewalls
15-21
Network Addresses
• IP address can be split into:
1. network address which specifies a specific network
2. host number which specifies a particular machine in that
network
