3. Presentation_ID 3 © 2008 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.Cisco Confidential Chapter 8: Critical Concepts  What is this chapter about and why is it important? The chapter introduces networking and the basic concepts that are associated with networking. Networks are everywhere; with voice, video, and data converging on the same network, it is important for students to be able to install devices on a network. Even students who are not planning on entering the networking field must be able to add devices to the network, understand basic networking concepts as they relate to such installations, and be able to configure basic network settings. Included in this introduction are the different types of networks, IP addressing including using DHCP and ICMP to check for connectivity, network components and cabling, Ethernet standards, Internet connectivity, and basic network troubleshooting.

26. Presentation_ID 26 © 2008 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.Cisco Confidential Chapter 8: Teaching Analogies  The OSI model is similar to creating a set of guidelines for building any type of bicycle. The guidelines specify how to guide and stop the bicycle, how to carry a person, and what type of tires to use for the bicycle.  A traditional analog phone call could be compared to the television signals received through an antenna. A VoIP phone call could be compared to the television digital signals received through a cable provider.  Data must be broken up into packets to be sent across the Internet. This is similar to sorting a big basket of clothes by color and fabric in the laundry room. The capacity of the washer determines the amount of clothes that can be washed, similar to how a protocol specifies the amount of data that can go in one packet.  Protocols are a set of rules that have been developed for a specific type of communication. An analogy for the different protocols would be the rules that are set before a meeting, such as agenda items and discussion time limits.

27. Presentation_ID 27 © 2008 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.Cisco Confidential  What are some examples of different types of networks in our lives? Possible examples may include a phone network, a cell phone network, a network of friends, or a social or professional network.  Compare and contrast the OSI versus TCP/IP models. Emphasize how the TCP/IP model has real protocols where the OSI model is a theoretical model.  What are protocols?  What kind of rules would a network need?  How do you test communication? Chapter 8: Suggested Class Discussions

28. Presentation_ID 28 © 2008 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.Cisco Confidential Chapter 8: Best Practices  Network two computers using a crossover cable or multiple computers using a switch or hub.  Share a printer on a network and print to it from another computer on the same network.  Configure a wireless access point and have the students connect to it with any type of wireless device.  Have the students work in teams to act out the rules of particular protocols, such as TCP versus UDP.
