4. 30 October 2015 CCENT Exam Topics  Describe the operation of data networks  Interpret network diagrams  Determine the path between hosts across a network  Differentiate between LAN/WAN operation and features https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/docs/DOC-4987

5. 30 October 2015 Physical Network Topology  A representation of the physical interconnections of the elements of a computer network

6. 30 October 2015 Logical Topology  Groups hosts by how they use the network, not by where they are physically located.  Host names, addresses, group information and applications can be recorded on the logical topology map

7. 30 October 2015 Local Area Network  LANs were defined as small networks that existed in a single physical location

8. 30 October 2015 Local Area Network  The definition of LAN has evolved  May include interconnected local networks consisting of many hundreds of hosts, installed in multiple buildings and locations under one administrative control.

9. 30 October 2015 Count the LAN’s 1 2 3 4

10. 30 October 2015 Count the LAN’s 1

11. 30 October 2015 Ethernet Data Path Between Hosts on a LAN Hub  When a host on an Ethernet network communicates, it sends frames containing:  Its own MAC address as the source  The MAC address of the intended recipient

12. 30 October 2015 Ethernet Data Path Between Hosts on a LAN Switch  A switch accepts and decodes frames to read the physical (MAC) address portion of the message  Using a MAC table, it sends the frame out only through the port where the destination MAC address is located.

13. 30 October 2015 Wide Area Network  WANs are used to connect LANs and other types of networks together over a broad area  Link across metropolitan, regional, or national boundaries

14. 30 October 2015 WAN  Can be connected via  Internet  Leased lines

15. 30 October 2015 WAN Connectivity

16. 30 October 2015 WAN Connectivity Bandwidth

17. 30 October 2015 WAN Traffic Flow: E-mail

18. 30 October 2015 Internet  Tier 1 ISPs  Huge organizations that physically connect directly with each other through private peering  Tier 2 ISPs  Can also be very large, even extending across several countries, but very few have networks that span entire continents or between continents  Tier 3 ISPs  Generally found in major cities and provide customers local access to the Internet..
