- 2. What is a Network? • In a network, two or more computers are connected in a way so that they can share their resources like printer, CD, hard disk etc. • A Computer network is a network of computers which share information and resources from each other . • Such networks can be connected via cable, telephone line, radio waves, satellite, infrared etc.
- 3. Benefits of Network RESOURCE SHARING : Now a days, computer networks are used in schools and offices to share various resources like printer, scanner etc. in order to minimize expenses of an organization. Effective communication- Communication has became very effective and fast with the help of network : Less expenses- because of sharing of resources, communication expenses has decreased on a faster rate. Reliability- With the use of computer, calculations and communications became much reliable. Central storage of data: Organizations are storing their data centrally so that it can be available to all concerned people keeping integrity of data. Banking is good example of this.
- 4. Terminology Nodes(Workstations) : The term nodes refers to computers that are attached to a network and are seeking to share resources. Server : A computer that facilities the sharing of data, software and hardware resources on the network. Network Interface Unit (NIU) : A Network interface unit is an interpreter that helps in establishing communication between the server and the client. IP Address : Every machine on a TCP/IP Network has a unique identifying number called an IP Address. Domain Name : It is a way to identify and locate the computers connected to the internet. It must be unique. • URL(Uniform Resource Locator) it stands for "Uniform Resource Locator ." A URL is the address of a specific webpage or file on the Internet. For example, the URL of the TechTerms website is "http://techterms.com." for ex - "http://techterms.com/definition/url" . It has following information- – http:// – the URL prefix, which specifies the protocol used to access the location – techterms.com – the server name or IP address of the server – /definition/url – the path to the directory or file
- 5. Structure of a Network Sender : A device or computer that send information/data. Receiver : A device or computer who receives data/information. Message : An information needs to broadcast. Transmission Medium : It is a physical path with the help of which information goes from sender to receiver. Protocol: It is a collection of rules which regulates transfer of information.
- 6. ARPANET ARPANET -basis for the Internet. ARPANET was developed under the direction of the U.S. Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). In 1969, the idea became a modest reality with the interconnection of four university computers.
- 7. INTERNET • Internet is the latest technique of information broadcasting. It is basically a collection of computer networks through out the world. Thousands of computers are connected to each other in this network. Generally, computers are connected via telephone lines. Other option are also there for connection by which a computer can get connected to internet. • Internet is not subject to any company or government but it has several servers which are related to various organizations or private companies. We can say that internet is a medium for world wide communication. It is an easy and feasible medium to analysis any product at an international level. It is an effective medium to publish various information like report, article etc. • It is world’s biggest WAN.
- 8. • Intranet is a private network of computers which works on internet protocols for working. Any organization can use intranet for secure transmission of information amongst its employees. Internet is a network between various organizations whereas intranet is a network of one organization only.

Cloud Computing • Cloud computing is a kind of distributed data processing technique. • Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtual resources are made available as a service over the Internet. • Advantages- Less investment- any work can be initiated on less or zero balance. Maintenance is also less expensive. High Speed - cloud computing can provide required resources in less time. Reliability- it is provided by reliable companies/organizations, hence it is very reliable. Scalability- its capacity can be purchased as per your fluctuating requirements. Environment support - cloud saves energy as well as minimize carbon excretion. • Disadvantages- Online Privacy and security is not safe. You can not access your data without internet. It is of two types- Public Cloud – (Google Drive, Amazon Cloud Drive etc.) Private Cloud – (Owned by one organization)

- 35. Setting up a computer network • The 80-20 Thumb Rule: – According to this rule, in a properly designed and organized network, 80% of the traffic of whole network should be dedicated to local network. – 20% of whole traffic should not exceed backbone. If it happens, there may be a condition of network congestion arises. – We need to follow above rules while designing a network.
