What is a Network?
A network is a group of devices that are
connected through any form of
communication channel to share the
information and expensive devices. The
communication channel may be either
a physical wire (channel) or radio
microwave, or satellite channel
networks.
A network is a means of transmitting
and/or receiving, that is, exchanging
information from one or more
resources.
Computer Network
The computers in a network are connected via
hardware and software
Hardware
Physically connects the computers together
telephone lines, fiber-optic cables, routers and
gateways, and the computers themselves.
Software
Enables communication and exchange of
information, by following a set of rules, called
protocols
Computer Network
Interoperability
Different types of computers, using
different operating systems, can be
connected, communicate with each other,
and share information
Computers must agree to follow the
same network protocols
Why use Computer
Networks?
Resource sharing
Share data, programs, and equipment
Across geographic boundaries
Communications
Cooperation between dispersed groups
Improved Reliability
Replication of files and resources allowing
operation to continue despite hardware
failures
Why use Computer
Networks?
Cost efficiency
Small computers have a better
price/performance ratio than large ones
Scalability
Add more computers to the network as
required
Components of
Computer Network
Servers:
Computers that provide shared resources
to network users.
Clients:
Computers that access shared network
resources provided by a server.
Media:
The wires that make the physical
connections.
Components of
Computer Network
Shared data:
Files provided to clients by servers across the
network.
Shared printers and other peripherals:
Additional resources provided by servers.
Resources:
Any service or device, such as files, printers, or
other items, made available for use by members
of the network.
INTERNET
Internet is the
network of
networks i.e. a
global network
which make WWW
(world wide web)
NET ANATOMY
The Web physically consists
of your personal computer,
web browser software, a
connection to an Internet
service provider,
computers called servers
that host digital data, and
routers and switches to
direct the flow of
information.
WEB BROWSERS
A web browser is the software
program you use to access the World
Wide Web, the graphical portion of
the Internet. The first browser,
called NCSA Mosaic, was developed
at the National Center for
Supercomputing Applications in the
early 1990s. The easy-to-use point-
and-click interface helped
popularize the Web. Microsoft
Internet Explorer and Netscape
Navigator are the two most popular
ones.
NAVIGATING THE WEB
The Web is known as a client-
server system. Your computer is
the client; the remote computers
that store electronic files are the
servers. To visit the website,
enter the address or URL of the
website in your web browser.
Browser requests the web page
from
the web server that hosts the
requested site. The server sends
the data over the Internet to your
computer. Your web browser
interprets the data, displaying it
INTERNET SERVICE
PROVIDER
Internet Service Provider, a company
that provides access to the Internet. For
a monthly fee, the service provider
gives you a software package,
username, password and access phone
number. Equipped with a modem, you
can then log on to the Internet and
browse the World Wide Web and
USENET, and send and receive e-mail.
INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER
In addition to serving individuals, ISPs
also serve large companies, providing a
direct connection from the company's
networks to the Internet. ISPs
themselves are connected to one another
through Network Access Points (NAPs).
ISPs are also called IAPs (Internet
Access Providers).
