What is a Network?
Connecting two or more computers or
devices together through a media
(cable or wireless)
 Network conditions
1- two or more people are willing to share
their data or resources, like printers

2- there should be a NOS (Network

Operating System)
Like: Windows NT, 2000, Linux Fedora, Unix,
and Novel Netware

3- There should be a media to connect two

computers, such as a cable or wireless
card and/or NIC
 Types of Network Infrastructure
• LAN: Local Area Network
• MAN: Metropolitan Area Network
• WAN: Wide Are Network.
• WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network
• SAN - Storage Area Network, System Area Network, Server
Area Network, or sometimes Small Area Network
• CAN - Campus Area Network, Controller Area Network, or
sometimes Cluster Area Network
• PAN - Personal Area Network
• DAN - Desk Area Network
 LAN: Local Area Network
• What is a LAN?
• When connecting two or more computers within a
building or a few close buildings.
 MAN: Metropolitan Area Network
• What is a MAN?
• Connecting two or more computers less than 100
km, like Ottawa to Kanata
 MAN: Wide Area Network
• Connecting two or more computers more than 100
kilometers, city to city (Montreal to Ottawa),
country to country (Canada and U.S.A.).
 Network Topology

 Bus topology types.
Thin-net and Thick-net
1- Thin net or 10 base 2= 10 Mbps at 200 m) or 10 Baseband 2
– Uses Thin coaxial cable
– Uses Ethernet standard
– Uses T connector and Terminator.
– 30 computers per segment
– First and the last computer should be Terminated
– In bus topology, if you don’t terminate the first
and last device, the signal bounces back and
crashes the network.
– Hard troubleshooting
 Bus topology Thin-net
• bus

Distance : terminators maximum 200 m

Workstation number: 30 each segment

• Troubleshooting easy
 Hubs
• A common connection point for devices in a
network.
• used to connect segments of a LAN.
• Not smart
• Half duplex
• Cheap
• Causes traffics
• Works at the first layer of the OSI model
• Hub type:
– Passive: No power
– Active: has a power
 Switches
• Smart
• No Traffic
• More ports
• No collision
• Expensive
• Full, half duplex
• Work at Layer 2 of the OSI model
• Uses MAC address
 Star topology components
Switch:
- RJ45 cable (cat 5,6)

UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)

STP (Shielded Twisted Pair)

EMI: Electro Magnetic Interference

More twist, less EMI
 IP (Internet protocol) address
MAC (Media Access Control) address

IP address example: 192.168.5.17 (32-bit) (Logical)

MAC address: 50:87:BB:00:27:CA (48-bit) (Physical)

 3-Ring topology
• Computers connected through a coaxial cable
• A Token (signal) would go through the computers
• uses thin net coaxial cable
• Uses Ethernet standard
• Hard to troubleshoot Hub
 Mesh Topology
• All computers are connected to each other
• Uses thin net coaxial cable
• Uses Ethernet standard
 Hybrid (Star- Bus-extended) topology
• Mixed Star and Bus topology
• Uses several hubs and a Thin net coaxial cable
• Uses Ethernet standard
 What is the Ethernet Standard
It is a standard (IEEE 802.3) that allows computers to
communicate in a LAN network. Robert Metcalf developed it
in 1980.
Characteristics:
• Bus: 10 Base 2 and 5: T connector, Terminator, coaxial cable
• Ring: coaxial cable (thin-net)
• Star: 10 base T: Hub, switch, RJ 45 cable (Cat 5,6)
• Broadcast the signal
• Access Methods: how to have access to cables (contention base)
• Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD).
Wired
• Carrie Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA)
wireless)
 Ethernet: Access Methods: CSMA/CD and CSMA/CA
• Access Methods:
 Methods: how devices have access to cables (contention base)
• Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection
(CSMA/CD). Wired
• Carrie Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance

 Networks in terms of communication

• 1-Peer to peer LAN NETWORK

• 2-Client/server

LAN NETWORK
 1-Network: Workgroup or peer to peer (p 2 p)

• a workgroup is a collection of computers on a local

area network (LAN) that share common resources
and responsibilities.

• 20 Computers
• No expansion
• User is the administrator
• Cheap for a small company or home
• Example: Windows, 3.11, 95, ME, XP, Windows NT
clients
 2-Network: client/server
• Logical grouping of unlimited computers together.
• Need a server
• Need an administrator
• Expensive network
• Expansion allowed
• Example: Windows NT, 2000, 2003, 2008, Unix,
Linux
 Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
• It is a device (program) that provides IP addresses
to devices with Dynamic addressing, a device can
have a different IP address every time it connects to
the network
 DNS: Domain Name System
• It is a program inside of a computer that resolves a
domain name such as cisco.com to an IP address

• OSI model order:

OSI (Open Systems Interconnection)
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
TCP/IP:
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol

It is an Internet protocol suite for communication

protocols used for the Internet and other networks.
Commonly known as TCP/IP ( Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol.
 TCP/IP Protocol
Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol
(Internet protocol suite)

• IP address: a unique identifying number for each

machine connected to the Internet (32 bits)

• IP addresses are normally expressed in decimal format

as a "dotted decimal number”

Example: 192.168.2.56
 What is an IP address
• A 32-bit binary or 4 octets of decimal numbers,
which is used in the TCP/IP protocol for
communication between two or more devices.
• It identifies a computer on the network.
