Network Classificaition?
Geographical spread
Connectivity
12. PANs → Personal area networks
LANs → Local area networks
CANs → Campus area networks
MANs → Metropolitan area
networks
WANs → Wide area networks
Based on Connectivity:
•Peer-to-peer(P2P) connection
•Multi-Point connection
•Client-Server Connection
13. 1. Personal area networks(PANs)
• Networks spanning an area of a few centimeters to several meters
around an individual
• connection that are typically used by one person at a time.
• laptop computers, smartphones, personal printers, and wireless
peripheral devices (like a keyboard, speakers)
• also include wearable devices such as smart-* devices
↓
BAN (body area network)
2. Local area networks(LANs)
• Networks that are a little larger in geographic size than PANs
spanning a room, a floor within a building, or an entire building
• X-stics Of LAN:
• The scope of the LAN is little bit larger than PAN but smaller than
the other.
• The LAN is owned by the same organization that owns the attached
devices.
• The internal data rates of LANs are typically much greater.
14. 3. Campus area networks (CANs)
Collections of local area networks that cover a campus (such as a
college campus or a business campus)
4. Metropolitan area networks (MANs)
Networks that serve an area up to roughly kilometers—
approximately the area of a typical city.
are high-speed networks that interconnect businesses with other
businesses and the Internet.
5. Wide area networks (WANs)
Large networks encompassing parts of cities, multiple cities,
countries, continent and the world
Basically, collection of LAN and MAN.
Internet connection is an example of WAN
16. WAN has three flavours
Enterprise network: An interconnected version of all the local area
networks of a single organization
Global network: A network formed by combining the networks of
several organizations over a wide area.
Internet: A network of networks of broad area category. It is the
biggest network in the world.
17. 2. Based on Connectivity
Multi-Point connection
is a connection established between more than two devices.
also called multidrop line configuration
Single link is shared by multiple devices.
↓
The channel capacity is shared temporarily by every device connecting
to the link
19. Topology ?
Is tha arrangement of devices to form Network Geography. OR
Is a geometric representation that portray the relationship between all links and
nodes to each other.
The network architecture used to interconnect the networking equipment.
Two flavour:
Physical Topology
• refers to the physical layout or arrangement of devices and cables in a network.
• It describes the actual physical connections between devices
• Bus Topology, Star Topology, Ring Topology, Mesh Topology and Hybrid
Logical Topology
• refers to the way data is transmitted between devices in a network.
• It describes the path that data follows as it travels between nodes regardless of the
physical layout.
• Ethernet, Token Ring, Ethernet Switched Network, ...
20. Bus Topology
Is the Simplest Type of topology.
devices share the media for data transmission.
Advantage of Bus topology
• Cost of layingout the Cable
• Installation or ease-of-setup
Disadvantage of Bus topology ? YUP Refer it ...
21. Star Topology
Each device is connected to a central hub orswitch through a separate
cable.
This central hub acts as a mediator, facilitating communication between
devices.
Star topologies are common in Ethernet networks
Advantage of star topology Troubleshooting is much easier The
ˆ ˆ
performance is faster because data doesn’t have to go through each node
before reaching its destination. If one node fails, the rest FINE
ˆ
22. Mesh Topology
Every device is connected to every other device in the network.
This results in redundant connections, providing high fault
tolerance and scalability.
are commonly used in wireless networks and critical
infrastructure where reliability is crucial.
Advantage of Mesh topology
If one node fails, the rest FINE
Improve security and privacy,
Requires n(n-1)/2 cables
Any disadvantage ? Yup!
23. Hybrid Topology
Topologies might be combination of various topologies
Combination of bus, star, ring, token-ring and mesh topology
24. How Data Transferred ? Transmission Mode
⇒
↓
is means of transferring data between two computing machine.
Three ways of transmitting Data
1.Simplex mode
2.Half-duplex mode
3.Full-duplex mode
Simplex Mode
1.Think One-way street!
2.Its Uni-direction way of data transmission .
3.Only one of the two devices on a link can transmit, the other can only receive.
4.The entire capacity of the media to send data in one direction.
5.Example:
Simplex devices: Keyboard and Oldest CRT & LCD monitor
25. Half-duplex Mode
Bidirectional Communication! Non-Simultaneous
Each parties can both transmit and receive, but not at the same time
The half-duplex mode is used in cases where there is no need for
communication in both direction at the same time.
The entire capacity of the channel can be utilized for each direction.
Figure 8: Walkie-Takie Infprmation dissmination
26. Full-duplex Mode
Simultaneous Bidirectional Communication!
In full-duplex mode, both stations can transmit and receive simultaneously.
In this mode, signals going in one direction share the capacity of the link with
signals going in other direction,
This sharing can occur in two ways
• The link must contain two physically separate transmission paths, one for sending and
other for receiving.
• The capacity is divided between signals travelling in both directions.
Two methods of data transfer
Serial Data Transmission:
data is transmitted one bit at a time over a single communication channel
or wire.
Parallel Data Transmission
multiple bits are sent simultaneously over multiple communication channels or
wires.

Responsible for connecting appliances and transmitting data
1. Repeaters
Operates at the physical layer.
Function: regenerate the signal over the same network before the signal
becomes too weak or corrupted do not amplify the signal.
It is a 2 port device.
Types of Repeaters
1.1 Signals that they regenerate: 2 Types
→ Analog Repeaters and Digital Repeaters
1.2 The networks they connect: 2 Types
→ Wired Repeaters and Wireless Repeaters
1.3 Based on LANs they connect,: 2 Types 7

2 Hub
Multiport repeater.
Hubs cannot filter data, so data packets are sent to all connected devices.
Do not have the intelligence to find out the best path for data packets. ˆ
How do they Function?
o Hosts can send data to the Hub.
o Then the hub broadcasts that data to all other connected hosts on the network.

reading the MAC addresses of source and destination).
used in computer networks to interconnect two LANs together and separate
network segments.
Types of Bridge
Transparent Bridge
o The stations are completely unaware of the bridge’s existence.
o Automatically maintains a routing table and update table in response to maintain
changing topology
Source Routing Bridges → Routing operation is performed by the source station
Translational Bridges → Data format translation

5 Routers
The router is a layer 3 device
The router uses the network address to make routing decisions regarding
forwarding data packets.
Routers normally connect LANs and WANs together and have a
dynamically updating routing table based on which they make decisions on
routing the data packets.
5 Gateway
device or software component that serves as an entry point between two
disparate networks, allowing data to flow between them
Any device that translates one data format to another
The key point about a gateway is that only the data format is translated, not
the data itself.
Protocol Translation Addressing Translation,

The function of each layer should be chosen with an eye toward defining
internationally standardized protocols.
The layer boundaries should be chosen to minimize the information flow
across the interfaces.
39. Application Layer

Split it up into smaller units,
Pass these to the network layer, and
Ensure that the pieces all arrive correctly at the other end
RoyalBlue
The transport layer is a true end-to-end layer;
It carries data all the way from the source to the destination
41. Network Layer
A key design issue is determining how packets are routed from source to
destination.
defines three main features: logical addressing, routing(forwarding), and
path determination
Routing : how devices forward packets to their final destination.
Logical addressing defines how each device can have an address that can be used by the
routing process.
Path determination refers to the work done by routing protocols to learn all possible routes
and choose the best route.
Data-Link Layer
This layer defines the rules that determine when a device can send data over a particular
medium.
To transform a raw transmission facility into a line that appears free of undetected
transmission errors.
The sender break up the input data into data frames and transmit the frames sequentially
If recieved successfully ACK frame → Sender
