Chapter 10: Connecting PCs to Networks and the Internet 3
Network Types and Architectures
A network is a collection of computers and devices connected together to share resources, such as hardware, software, data, and information
Bandwidth refers to the amount of data that can travel over a given communication system in a given amount of time
A PC makes a direct connection to a network by way of a network adapter– Network interface card (NIC)

LANs, MANs, and WANs
A local area network (LAN) connects computers and devices in a relatively small area
A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a high-speed network that connects LANs in a metropolitan area such as a city or town
A wide area network (WAN) covers a large geographic area

Logical Network Architecture
The network architecture is a logical model that defines the design and interaction of the computers, devices, and media on a network– Client/Server
• One or more computers acts as a server and the other computers on the network request services from the server
– Peer-to-Peer• Each computer on the network has equal responsibilities
and capabilities on the network

Network Hardware Protocols
Network protocols are rules that define how the hardware devices and software operate and work together– Ethernet
• Hardware protocol that allows nodes to contend for access to the network
– Token Ring and FDDI• Token ring is an older LAN technology that controls access to the
network by requiring devices on the network to pass a special signal called a token
• FDDI is similar to token ring, but uses a dial-ring approach

Chapter 10: Connecting PCs to Networks and the Internet 11
Configuring Ethernet Networks
Ethernet networks can be configured using either a bus or star topology
A bridge typically connects one LAN to another LAN that uses the same hardware protocol
A switch works much like a bridge, but does not broadcast messages

Wireless LANs
Wireless LAN (WLAN) technology uses radio waves or infrared light instead of cables or wires to connect computers or other devices
A computer connects to a wireless LAN using a wireless NIC A device can communicate directly with another device, or it
can connect to a LAN by way of a wireless access point (AP)
![Page 14: Chapter 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070315/5554e80bb4c905bb2a8b47f2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Chapter 10: Connecting PCs to Networks and the Internet 15
How NICs Work
A NIC is designed to support one of the network hardware protocols
A NIC can be internal or externalBefore sending data from a computer, a NIC
must convert the data into a signal that is appropriate for network cabling– The component on the card responsible for this
signal conversion is called the transceiver– Ethernet cards that accommodate different cabling
media are called combo cards
![Page 16: Chapter 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070315/5554e80bb4c905bb2a8b47f2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Network Protocols
Windows supports three suites of network protocols:– TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol)– IPX/SPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange / Sequenced
Packet Exchange)– NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface)
Binding occurs when an operating system-level protocol such as TCP/IP associates itself with a lower-level hardware protocol such as Ethernet
![Page 18: Chapter 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070315/5554e80bb4c905bb2a8b47f2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Chapter 10: Connecting PCs to Networks and the Internet 18
Addressing on a Network
A MAC (Media Access Control) address is a 6-byte address, often expressed as six pairs of hexadecimal numbers and letters, often separated by hyphens
An IP address is a 32-bit address consisting of a series of four 8-bit numbers separated by periods
A port number identifies a program or service running on a computer to communicate over the network
Character-based names are used to identify a PC on a network with easy-to-remember letters rather than numbers

How Computers Find Each Other on a LAN
DNS (Domain Name System) is a system that determines the IP address associated with host names and domain names– DNS Server
WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) is a system that determines the IP address associated with a client or server computer running on a Windows network using the NetBEUI protocol

Sharing Files, Folders, and Applications
If users on a LAN need to share applications, files, or printers, then all these users must be assigned to the same domain or workgroup on the LAN
To share resources, you first must install Client for Microsoft Networks and File and Printer Sharing– These two components are
installed by default when you install Windows XP using the Typical setting
![Page 27: Chapter 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070315/5554e80bb4c905bb2a8b47f2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Troubleshooting a Network Connection
Some methods and steps to resolve networking issues:– Determine whether other computers on the
network are having trouble with their connections– Make sure the NIC and its drivers are installed– Check the network cable– Connect the network cable to a different port on
the hub– Ping and Ipconfig

Connecting to the Internet Using Dial-up Networking
To connect to the Internet over a telephone line using a dial-up connection, you need to have a modem installed on your PC
When a Windows PC connects to a network using a modem and regular telephone line, the process is called dial-up networking– The modem on your PC acts like a network card

Using a Dial-up Connection in Windows XP
In order for your PC to connect to your ISP and use the Internet, you must know:– The dial-up access telephone number of the ISP– Your user ID and password for the ISP– If DNS servers will be assigned at connection– How your IP address will be assigned

Implementing a Firewall
A firewall can function in several ways:– Firewalls can filter data packets, examining the destination
IP address or source IP address or the type of protocol used (for example, TCP or UDP)
– Firewalls can filter ports so outside clients cannot communicate with inside services listening at these ports
– Firewalls can filter applications such as FTP so users inside the firewall cannot use this service over the Internet
– Some firewalls can filter information such as inappropriate Web content for children or employees

Accessing Internet Resources Using a Web Browser
A Web browser is a software application on a user’s PC that is used to request Web pages from a Web server on the Internet or an intranet
A Web page is a document on the Web identified by a unique URL (Uniform Resource Locator)
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) can be interpreted by a Web browser to display formatted text, graphics, images, forms, and so on
