Summary
 A network is a connected collection of devices that can
communicate with each other. Networks carry data in many kinds
of environments, including homes, small businesses, and large
enterprises.
 There are four major categories of physical components in a
computer network: the computer, interconnections, switches, and
routers.
 The major resources that are shared in a computer network
include data and applications, peripherals, storage devices, and
backup devices.
 The most common network user applications include e-mail, web
browsers, instant messaging, collaboration, and databases.
© 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. ICND1 v1.0—1-22
 A physical topology describes the layout for wiring the physical
devices, while a logical topology describes how information flows
through a network.
 There are three common methods of connecting the small office
to the Internet: DSL using the existing telephone lines, cable
using the CATV infrastructure, and serial links using the classic
digital local loops.
