Networking ConceptNetworking Concept What is NetworkingWhat is Networking Networking is the sharing of information and services Computer networks includes computers and computer operating systems Computer networks are often classified by size, distance covered, or structure Network ClassificationNetwork Classification Local area network (LAN) Small group of connected computers 10Km Mbps Gbps Ethernet (10Mbps), Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) Wide area network (WAN) Interconnect LANs Kbps Mbps Modem (33.6/56 kbps), X.25 (56 Kbps), Frame Relay (1.544 Mbps), T1 / E1 (1.544 Mbps), T3 / E3 (45 Mbps), ISDN 2B1D (64K),ATM (25 622 Mbps) File Server+Print Server Printer ( Printer buffer) HD( Queued ) Router WAN LAN Router LAN Required Network ElementsRequired Network Elements Three basic elements in Networking Something to share-Network Services A pathway of contacting others-Transmission media Rules for communication-Protocol Network ServicesNetwork Services Network services are provided by numerous combinations of computer hardware and software Service providers and requestors Servers-Only provide services Clients- Only request services Peers-Both Network ServicesNetwork Services File Services File transfer, file storage and data migration, File update synchronization Print services Share printers, queue print jobs Message services E-mail, workgroup applications Application services Run software for network clients Share processing power Database services Provide server-based database storage & retrieval function Replication Transmission MediaTransmission Media A method or pathway for contacting each other Cable media( twisted pair, coaxial, fiber optic cable) Wireless media (radio frequency, microwave, infrared) RJ45 connectorUnshielded Twisted Pair Cable (UTP) (Core) (Cladding) (Protective Sheath) SC connectorLC connector Multi Mode 62.5/50 u core/ 125 u cladding Single Mode 8.3 u core/ 125 u cladding LC connector Connectivity DevicesConnectivity Devices Network connectivity devices Transmission media connectors Network Interface Card Modems Repeaters Hubs Bridges Switches Internetwork connectivity devices Routers Brouters CSU/DSUs ProtocolProtocol Rules are required for communication between computer network devices Specific communication rules and rule sets are called protocols OSI Reference ModelOSI Reference Model 1977, ISO created the OSI Reference Model, Functional guideline for dividing up communication tasks Network User OSI MODEL 7 Application layer Provides services to the application. Presentation layer Converts, encrypts data. Session layer Starts,stops session. Maintains order. Transport layer Ensures delivery of entire file or message. Network layer Data Link (MAC) layer Transmits frames from node to node based on station address. Physical layer Passes information in bits across the connection medium. 6 5 4 3 2 1 Routes packets to LANs and WANs based on network address.
