In this Tutorial you will Learn Basics of Computer Networks
What is Computer Network ?
When two or more computer are connected together to share something in a standard manner is known as Computer Network.Computer Network is formed by using wired and wireless media.
What is Computer Networking ?
When a two or more computer system are sharing resources with data travelling is known as Computer Networking.
Advantages of Computer Network
Some Benefits of Computer Network are as follows:
Printers share,email,chatting,
It helps in sharing resources like email,printer sharing,chatting.
Printers share,email,chatting,
It helps in sharing resources like email,printer sharing,chatting.
Data Sharing at very high speed.
We can send data,files,documents to our interconnected computer systems and receive as well as very high speed.
Computer Network Components
Media/Wireless Devices Topology
Coaxial Cable Router Bus
UTP Modem Ring
STP Cable -Cat 6 Switch Star
ISTP Cable Firewall
Fiber Optic Cable Network Interface Card
Devices
Router:Router is a Network device which is used when two or more different network needs to communicate.Router select the best path for data to travel and it helps to share internet with other network devices.
Switch:Switch connects multiple network devices like computer,printers and other network devices.
When Switch receive a frame then it floods it out rest of originating port because in this process it checks that the frame is intended for it otherwise flood it to other.
Switch makes MAC table.
Firewall:A firewall is a network security device which is used to prevent unauthorized access from private or public network to users.Firewall decides whom to allow or whom to block on the basis of security policies that is implemented by Network Administrator.
Firewall is available in market is Hardware and Software platform
Hardware Firewall:Cisco ASA,Palo Alto etc.
Software Firewall:Check point.
NIC(Network Interface Card):It converts digital signal into type of media using.As you all know when we are inserting a LAN cable on comuter system their is a port(RJ 45 Port) its a LAN Card,without LAN card we can't run Internet.
Now a days LAN Card is inbuilt in a computer system we don't to buy it from market.
Media is in the form of Cable or Converter are as follows:
Coaxial Cable is earlier used for data transmission but the speed of the cable is very slow and performances is also very low.
You can see the DTH cable is a Coaxial Cable in every Home.
UTP Cable it stands for Unshilded Twisted Pair Cable.Cat 5speed Support up to 100 Mbps but it has some issues like it all the wires are bundle in a single jacket which causes elctromagnetic interference.
STP Cable stands for Shielded twisted pair cable like Cat 6.It support up to 1 Gbps
It supports up to 100 metre distance.
Fiber Optic cable:Fiber optic cable also known as optical fiber cable that contains strands of fiber cable inside an insulated casing.Basically it is designed for high performance and long distance travel.
Types of Computer Networks:
LAN(Local Area Network)
WAN(Wide Area Network)
LAN stands for Local Area Network .In a Local Area Network where group of computers share some resources and establish a communication system with each other including network device either using wired or wireless media.
WAN stands for Wide Area Network or you can say Internet where a large group of computer,mobile,network devices are connected with each other to share data with each other is known as WAN .
WAN Network establish with huge amount of money .
We can send data,files,documents to our interconnected computer systems and receive as well as very high speed.
