INTRODUCTION TO NETWORKING Abstract One problem seen with people today is that they are unaware what of a computer network is. They might have heard of a computer network, but they are clueless as to how it works or why it works. People have basic questions that need to be answered. The goal of this paper is to give basic network information that will hopefully answer those questions. To give people an understanding about
Networking For my independent study, I have created a network in my house. A network by definition are more than one computer that are linked together electronically via a protocol (common language) so the computers can communicate and share resources. This network improves the day-to-day life by adding value and usefulness to the computers. The processes and ideas that I have learned thru this experience can be applied directly into today’s rich electronic business environment. Identifying
Networking Computer Systems A network is a group of two or more computer systems sharing services and interacting in some manner. In most cases, this interaction is accomplished through a shared communication link, with the shared components being data. Put simply, a network is a collection of machines that have been linked both physically and through software components to soothe communication and the sharing of information. To make the communications between two or more computers work,

Linux Networking Capabilities Linux is a Unix clone written from scratch by Linus Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across the Net. It aims towards POSIX compliance. It has all the features expected in a modern fully-fledged Unix, including true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries, demand loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory management and TCP/IP networking. It runs mainly on 386/486/586-based PCs, using the hardware facilities of the
SLIP is a TCP/IP protocol used for communication between two machines that are previously configured for communication with each other. For example, your Internet server provider may provide you with a SLIP connection so that the provider's server can respond to your requests, pass them on to the Internet, and forward your requested Internet responses back to you. A better service is provided by the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). Point-to-Point Protocol is a protocol for communication between two
A computer networking and data network is a telecommunication network that allows the computers on a network may be linked through cables, telephone lines, radio waves, satellites, or infrared light beams. This facilitates communication and resources sharing within huge amount of people in deferent location. Best known as Internet, is the computer network established using either cable media or wireless media. The only system been used before 19th century was postal system, and it would take several
communicate and exchange data with each other by utilizing radio waves as the transmission medium. Wireless networking offers many advantages for organizations and users such as increased productivity, portability and flexibility, and lower installation costs. However, wireless networking is also coupled with security threats that can alter and damage an organization’s computing and networking resources. Using effective network management can help prevent attacks from occurring by having a sound and
important to make use of as many network devices available. We need to study more or at least to have a glimpse of information about the networking devices before we choose or start using it. There are many networking device out there that able for us to study but the chosen device for this report are hub, switch, router and repeater. Hub When it comes to networking, a hub is a simple device that joins more than one computers together into one central connection points via LAN. The single network segment
determine the factors of usage within a Facebook account a study was conducted among 1324 Australia internet users between the ages of 18- 44. The results showed that extraverted and introverted personalities are drawn to different aspects of the social networking site. Extraverted individuals tend to have more Facebook friends therefore presenting that they were more inclined to use the chat function on Facebook. However on the other hand individuals who experience neuroticism are more likely to use the

Social networking is the grouping of individuals into specific groups, for example like small communities or a neighborhood subdivision. Although social networking is possible in person, especially in the workplace, universities, and high schools, it is most popular online this is because unlike most high schools, colleges, or workplaces, the internet is filled with millions of individuals who are looking to meet other people, to gather and share first-hand information and experiences about cooking
Q1:- Identify and explain the advantages of subnet? Answer: A subnet is a logical grouping of network devices. which mention which hosts a part of a sub network number are come with the subnet is divided into their respective networks virtually defined sections allows the administrator to gain a lot of network subnets. When there as any organization network divided i nto subnets allows it to be connected to the Internet with a single shared network address. Subnets outside an organization can
Introduction In recent years, the Internet and especially the social networking sites have enabled a communication revolution: the ability to send and receive timely information everywhere has changed the way we live. As an online social networking site (SNS), it collects personal information and stored in the users’ profiles, and it is extremely popular because it allows people to connect with users with similar interests, build and maintain relationships with friends, and feel more connected with
Conflict Management in the Workplace Introduction Conflict management in the workplace is an issue that every leader, manager, or employee has to deal with at one time or another. The basics of conflict management include improving communication, teamwork, and a systematic approach to solving the disagreement. This paper explores various techniques that can be utilized to manage conflict in the workplace. Workplace Conflict Management Conflict is defined by Hellriegel, Slocum and Woodman as “the
can be reconnected through or repaired cable. This also leads to the usage of wireless networks being used as a backup. It would be much easier to connect the disconnected users to the network if they were already set up with the proper wireless networking software and hardware prior to the problem. Therefore, being used as a backup is very useful especially in buildings where the architecture makes it difficult to find and repair broken cables. Another reason wireless is needed is because there are
wires by using light beams. They would have never guessed that over the next one hundred or so years, we would be able to share information wirelessly and charge our mobile devices without having to plug them into an electrical outlet. Wireless networking is commonly referred to as technology that allows two or more computers to communicate using standard network protocols, but without network cabling such as an Ethernet cable at both ends. Since all of this cabling has become a hassle and nearly
Ethernet Networking in a Nutshell: First, we have to understand how Ethernet works. For a nicely summarized history as well as an explanation of the type of media it can run on, you can click here. Assuming everything is on the same network....... When a computer wants to talk to another computer on your network it 'listens' to see if there is any other traffic on the wire it is attached to. If it detects that it is all clear, it will send its traffic. Sometimes (and the likelihood increases

A Mesh topology is a style of connecting computers in a network in a fashion where every link has a redundant path. A mesh topology is also known as a self healing network in that if a segment of the network fails for what ever reason then the data can still be transmitted across another linked path. This would include possibly hoping across a few extra network segments to reach the destination but it would be able to do it. This redundancy of course comes with a price for the extra pathing that
