7.8 © 2007 by Prentice Hall CONTEMPORARY NETWORKING INFRASTRUCTURE Management Information Systems Chapter 8 Telecommunications, Networks, and the Internet Telecommunications, Networks, and the Internet The network operating system (NOS) routes and manages communications on the network and coordinates network resources. Networks also contain a switch or a hub acting as a connection point between the computers. Hubs are very simple devices that connect network components, sending a packet of data to all other connected devices. Networks and Corporate Infrastructure (Continued)

7.14 © 2007 by Prentice Hall CONTEMPORARY NETWORKING INFRASTRUCTURE Management Information Systems Chapter 7 Telecommunications, the Internet, and Wireless Technology Client/server computing is a distributed computing model in which much of the processing power is located within small, inexpensive client computers. The powerful clients are linked to one another through a network that is controlled by a network server computer. The server sets the rules of communication for the network and provides every client with an address so others can find it on the network. Client/Server Computing:

7.15 © 2007 by Prentice Hall CONTEMPORARY NETWORKING INFRASTRUCTURE Management Information Systems Chapter 7 Telecommunications, the Internet, and Wireless Technology net TCP/IP is the communications protocol used by the Internet and all Internet devices. TCP/IP provides for breaking up digital messages into packets, routing them to the proper addresses, and then reassembling them into coherent messages. TCP/IP uses a suite of protocols: TCP and IP. TCP/IP and Connectivity:
