What is a network? A network consists of two or more entities, or objects, sharing resources and information. In a basic sense, sharing (giving or getting) is a fundamental aspect of networking.

Why do we need network? To share To save time and money Resources Hardware devices Software programs To save time and money Data Information

What is a Computer Network? 1 What is a Computer Network? A computer network is a system in which multiple computers are connected to each other to share information and resources.

Communications Device What is a Computer network? Collection of computers and devices connected together Communications Device Communications Media Cables Satellites Enables a connection between computers Cellular radio Telephone lines One type is a modem

1 A Simple Network

Characteristics of a computer network 1 Characteristics of a computer network Share Resources from one computer to another Create files and store them in one computer, access those files from the other computer(s) connected over the network Connect a printer, scanner, or a fax machine to one computer within the network and let other computers of the network use the machines available over network.

Basic Components of a Network Server: In computer networking, a server is a computer designed to process requests and deliver data to other (client) computers over a local network or the Internet.

Basic Components of a Network Workstation: A typical workstation is a computer that is configured with a network interface card, networking software and the appropriate cables.

Basic Components of a Network Hub: Hub is a device that splits a network connection into multiple computers. It is like a distribution center.

Transmission Channels Computer in a network is interconnected through transmission channels. These channels can be wired(cables) and wireless(satellites).

Computer Network Types PAN:A personal area network (PAN) is a computer network used for data transmission amongst devices such as computers, telephones, tablets and personal digital assistants.

LAN: - LAN networks connect computers together over relatively small distances, such as within a single building or within a small group of buildings.

WAN: - WAN networks connect computers together over large physical distances.

MAN: - This is a network which is larger than a LAN but smaller than a WAN, and incorporates elements of both. It typically spans a town or city and is owned by a single person or company, such as a local council or a large company.
