Configuration of NetworksConfiguration of Networks
Hard-wired (Ethernet)– TCP/IP is the only protocol you need to worry about– Protocols are the agreed-upon ways that computers exchange
information. A protocol can be thought of a set of rules that keeps everything flowing correctly. A set of stop lights represents a traffic protocol that helps avoid collisions.
– TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. It is the protocol of the Internet.
Wireless (Wi-Fi)– Wireless router and access point– Radio signals (2.4 GHZ or 5 GHZ)
