4. Networking:
-
____”When two or more computers connected
to each other through some communication
media is called Networking.____”

Mr.Khan
6. History of networking:-
Over the five decades that Unisys has been involved in the
computer industry, it has participated in
the development of networking technologies while working
under contract for the Department of Defense (DOD) and other
government agencies and in the course of developing its
commercial
product offerings. During this time Unisys has made several
significant technical contributions
furthering the development of networking in the industry at
large.

8. Uses of networks:-
Network allows user to share program and
data simultaneously.
Network allows users to share peripheral
devices.
Network allows user to share email
through network.

Mr.Khan
10. Types of networks
Local Area Network(LANs)
Wide Area Network (WANs)
Metropolitan Area Network(MANs)
Campus Area Network(CANs)
Home Area Network(HANs)
Intranet and Extranet
10
Mr.Khan
11. Local Area network
Its is digital communication system
capable of interconnecting a large number
of computer terminals and devices with in
a limited area.
Its speed is faster than WANs.
But is small in covering area.
11
Mr.Khan
13. Wide area network
Its is digital communication system
capable of interconnecting a large number
of computer terminals and devices
through different cities.
Its is slower than WAN.
13
Mr.Khan
15. Metropolitan area
network
A MANs connect a geographical area larger
than LAN but LESS than WAN such as city
with dedicated or high performance
hardware.
Mobile phones system based on MANs.
15
Mr.Khan
17. Campus Area Network
A CANs follow the same principle as LANs
work.
With a CAN different campus offices and
organization can be linked together.
17
Mr.Khan
19. Home area network
A home network (HANs) is a network
contained a person’s digital devices from
multiple computer and devices such as
Printer
Telephones
DVDs
19
Mr.Khan
21. Intranet and extranet
Its is privately own-secure business
network based on internet technology not
necessarily to the internet.
Information is available to all employees.
21
Mr.Khan
22. Extranet
Its combination of multiple intranets.
Intranets of different companies are
connected each other to share data and
information.
22
Mr.Khan
25. How network are structured ?
Following are the ways to form a
network.
Client/server Networks.
Peer to Peer Networks.
Hybrid Network.
25
Mr.Khan
26. Client/server Networks
Inthis type of network one or
more computer are dedicated
server and the remaining
computer works as client.
The client are all other
computers on the network.
26
Mr.Khan
27. advantages
• Advantages of client/server networks
• Facilitate resource sharing – centrally
administrate and control
• Facilitate system backup and improve
fault tolerance
• Enhance security – only administrator
can have access to Server
27
Mr.Khan
28. Disadvantages
• Disadvantages of client/server networks
• High cost for Servers
• Need expert to configure the network
• Introduce a single point of failure to the
system
28
Mr.Khan
30. Peer to peer network
In this network every computer plays a
role of server or client depending upon
the nature of communication .
All computers have equal rights.
No one computer can control over other
computer.
30
Mr.Khan
31. advantages
• Advantages of peer-to-peer networks:
• Low cost
• Simple to configure
• User has full accessibility of the
computer
Mr.Khan 31
32. Disadvantages of peer-to-peer
o May have duplication in
resources
Difficult to uphold security
policy
Difficult to handle uneven
loading
Mr.Khan 32
34. Hybrid network
Ithas the combined feature of
both client and peer to peer
networks
The user take advantage of
both networks.
34
Mr.Khan
35. advantages
Its provide both the facility of peer to
peer model and client server model
DISADVANTAGE
Hard ware cost .
Maintenance.
35
Mr.Khan
37. Network topologies
____”
The scheme of joining
computer in a network is
called topology___”
37
Mr.Khan
38. Types of topologies
Bus Topology
Ring Topology
Star Topology
Tree Topology
Mesh Topology
38
Mr.Khan
39. Bus Topology
In bus topology all the computer are
connected in the series with a common
communication medium.
The communication medium is called
BUS.
Bus is used in LAN because It is To
installed.
If the one node of bus fail then the whole
network will be destroy.
39
Mr.Khan
41. Ring topology
In ring topology every device has exactly
two neighbor for communication
purpose and the last computer is
connected to the first computer all the
computer are connected in ring shape.
A failure in cable or a device breaks the
loop and the entire network fails.
41
Mr.Khan
43. Star topology
All the computer are connected to
central HUB OR Switch.
Twisted pair cable is used in star
topology.
Its is mostly use in LAN because it is
easy to maintain .
If the HUB or SWITCH or fail then entire
network becomes fail.
43
Mr.Khan
45. Tree topology
Tree topology integrates the multiple
star topologies together on to a bus all
the computer are connected in such a
way to form tree like structure.
It has combined feature of STAR and
BUS topology.
It is difficult to configure.
45
Mr.Khan
47. Mesh topology
In mesh topology every computer
directly connected to every other
computer on the network.
Mesh topology used in WAN.
The installation of mesh topology is
difficult.
Its performance is not affected with the
heavy transmission of data.
47
Mr.Khan
49. Protocols
Protocols are the rules to exchange data
between two devices.
Types of Protocols:
Ethernet
Token Ring
ARCnet
DSL
TCP/IP
49
Mr.Khan
50. Ethernet
Its is most commonly used in LAN
protocols.
Ethernet is used in BUS topology with
high speed network cable.
It is relatively simple and cheaper.
All the computer in Ethernet using same
cable to send or receive data.
50
Mr.Khan
52. Token ring
Token ring passing protocols is used in
ring topology.
A token is an electronic signal.
The token ring is associated with IBM
(international Business Machines)
Which worked with the concept of ring
network
52
Mr.Khan
54. ARCnet
Arc net stands for Attached Resource
Computer Network.
It used either pair or co-axial cable.
The original ARCnet protocol was very
slow
ARCnet is inexpensive, reliable, easy to
setup and easy to expand
54
Mr.Khan
56. TCP/IP
TCP/IP stand for Transmission
Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.
It is WAN protocol.
Two different types of computer
connect each other using this
protocol.
TCP/IP differs for different
computers.
Mr.Khan 56
57. ISDN
ISDN stands for Integrated Services
Digital Network.
ISDN modem is different from dial up
modem
It provides better transmission rate
Mr.Khan 57
59. DSL
DSL stands for Digital Subscribe Line.
It provides high speed transmission of
data over telephone line.
It is alternative of isdn modem.
Its is use every where in office, homes
etc.
