Chapter 7
Networking Elements Creating a Connected World
7-5
Network Categories
Chapter 7
– Connects a
group of computers in close proximity, such
as in an office building, school, or home
• Local area network (LAN)
– Spans a
large geographic area such as a state,
province, or country
• Wide area network (WAN)
–A
large computer network usually spanning a
city
• Metropolitan area network (MAN)
7-6
Network Providers
Chapter 7
– Private
companies that own and maintain the worldwide
backbone that supports the Internet
• National service providers (NSPs)
– Traffic exchange
points in the routing hierarchy of the Internet that
connects NSPs
• Network access points (NAPs)
– Offer Internet
service by connecting to NSPs, but they also can connect
directly to each other
• Regional service providers (RSPs)
7-7
Network Access Technologies
Chapter 7
– The maximum amount of
data that can pass from one point to
another in a unit of time
• Bandwidth
 Bit
 Bit rate
 Modem
7-8
Network Access Technologies
Chapter 7
• Broadband – A high-speed Internet
connection that is always connected
 Digital subscriber line
 Internet cable connection
 T1 lines
7-9
Network Protocols
Chapter 7
– A standard that specifies the format of
data as well as the rules to be followed during
transmission
• Protocol
• Transmission control protocol/Internet protocol
(TCP/IP) – Provides the technical foundation for the
public Internet as well as for large numbers of private
networks
• Domain name system
– Converts IP addresses into
domains
7-10
Network Protocols

Internet Domains
7-12
Network Convergence
Chapter 7
• Network convergence - The efficient coexistence of
telephone, video, and data communication within a
single network, offering convenience and flexibility not
possible with separate infrastructures
7-13
Network Convergence
Chapter 7
–
The integration of communication
channels into a single service
• Unified communication (UC)
• Peer-to-peer (P2P) – A computer
network that relies on the
computing power and bandwidth
of the participants in the network
rather than a centralized server
7-14
Network Convergence
Chapter 7
• Voice over IP (VoIP) – Uses IP technology to transmit
telephone calls
• Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) – Distributes digital video
content using IP across the Internet and private IP
networks
7-15
BENEFITS OF A CONNECTED WORLD
Chapter 7
• Networks offer many advantages for a business,
including
 Sharing resources
 Providing opportunities
 Reducing travel
7-16
Sharing Resources
Chapter 7
• The primary resources for sharing include
 Intranet
 Extranet
 Virtual private network
7-17
CHALLENGES OF A CONNECTED
WORLD
Chapter 7
• Networks have created a diverse, yet globally
connected world by eliminating time and distance;
networks make it possible to communicate in ways not
previously imaginable
• Even though networks provide many business
advantages, they also create increased challenges in
 Security
 Social, ethical, and political issues
7-18
Security
Chapter 7
– An electronic
document that confirms the identity of a
website or server and verifies that a
public key belongs to a trustworthy
individual or company
• SSL Certificate
• Secure hypertext transfer protocol
(SHTTP or HTTPS) – A combination of
HTTP and SSL to provide encryption
and secure identification of an Internet
server
7-19
Social, Ethical, and Political Issues
Chapter 7
– A worldwide gap giving advantage
to those with access to technology
• Digital divide
