1 Networks A network is a collection of computers and devices connected together via communications devices and
transmission media Advantages of a network include: Facilitating communications Sharing hardware Sharing data and information Sharing software Transferring funds 2
3 Bandwidth Measurement of the capacity of the channel Categories
4 Protocols Set of communication rules
5 Network Classifications
6 Network Classifications
7 Network Classifications
8 Network Architecture The design of computers, devices, and media on a network is sometimes called the network
architecture Client/server Peer-to-peer Terminal 9 Peer-to-peer (P2P) Model 10 The Client/Server Model
11 The Client/Server Model (continued) 12 The Peer-to-peer Model
13 Network Topology A network topology refers to the layout of the computers and devices in a communications network Star
network Bus network Ring network 14 Network Topology
Network topology is the layout pattern of interconnections of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer. Types of network topology Star Bus Ring Hierarchical Networks are connections of two or more computers that work together to exchange information and share resources The network architecture describes how the network is arranged and how the resources are coordinated
and shared Network architecture also describes how a computer network is configured and what strategies are used Topology – network arrangement or configuration 15 Star Network Smaller computers linked to a central
unit 16 Bus Network Each device handles its own communication control 17 Ring
Network Each device is connected to two other devices 18 Hierarchical Network
Several computers linked to a central host 19 Principal Network Configurations

Networks Home networks provide computers with the following capabilities: Connect to the Internet at the same time Share a single high-speed Internet connection Access files and programs on other computers Share peripherals Play multiplayer games Connect game consoles to the Internet Subscribe to and use VoIP
33 Home Networks 34 Organizational Internets
35 Careers In IT Network Administrator Which of the following is a collection of computers and devices connected?Answer : A networks is a collection of computers and devices connected by communication channels.
What communication device connects two computers together?A router is a communications device that connects multiple computers or other routers together and transmits data to its correct desti- nation on the network. A router can be used on any size of network.
What is it called when devices communicate with each other?A network protocol is an established set of rules that determine how data is transmitted between different devices in the same network. Essentially, it allows connected devices to communicate with each other, regardless of any differences in their internal processes, structure or design.
Which means of communication is connected with computer?One type of communications device that connects a communications channel to a sending or receiving device such as a computer is a modem. Two examples of communications channels are cable television lines and telephone lines. USES OF COMPUTER COMMUNICATIONS. Computer communications are everywhere.
