Objective:
1. Configuring the LAN connection
Background:
A local area network (LAN) is a collection of devices connected together in one physical location, such as a building, office, or home. A LAN can be small or large, ranging from a home network with one user to an enterprise network with thousands of users and devices in an office or school.
A DNS server is a server that manages the domain name system or DNS protocols, matching Internet domain names and IP addresses. The DNS server may also manage domain resolution services.
Here, I have designed a lab room using different PC and connected them using a Switch, and then connected them with the DNS server. I have used Server0 in PC0 and PC1. However, in PC2 and PC3 I have used Server1.
Objective:
1. Configuring the mail server
Background:
A mail server (or email server) is a computer system that sends and receives email. In many cases, web servers and mail servers are combined in a single machine. However, large ISPs and public email services (such as Gmail and Hotmail) may use dedicated hardware for sending and receiving emails.

Objective:
1. Star topology
Background:
A star topology is a topology for a Local Area Network (LAN) in which all nodes are individually connected to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch. A star takes more cable than e.g. a bus, but the benefit is that if a cable fails, only one node will be brought down. Star topology is also known as a star network.
Background:
Bus topology is a specific kind of network topology in which all of the various devices in the network are connected to a single cable or line. Bus topology is a network setup where each computer and network device is connected to a single cable or backbone. Depending on the type of computer network card, a coaxial cable or an RJ-45 network cable is used to connect them together.
The task of keyword extraction is to automatically identify a set of terms that best describe the document. Automatic keyword extraction establishes a foundation for various natural language processing applications: information retrieval, the automatic indexing and classification of documents, automatic summarization and high-level semantic description, etc. Although the keyword extraction applications usually work on single documents (document-oriented task), keyword extraction is also applicable to a more demanding task, i.e. the keyword extraction from a whole collection of documents or from an entire web site, or from tweets from Twitter. In the era of big-data, obtaining an effective and efficient method for automatic keyword extraction from huge amounts of multi-topic textual sources is of high importance.
We proposed a novel Selectivity-Based Keyword Extraction (SBKE) method, which extracts keywords from the source text represented as a network. The node selectivity value is calculated from a weighted network as the average weight distributed on the links of a single node and is used in the procedure of keyword candidate ranking and extraction. The selectivity slightly outperforms an extraction based on the standard centrality measures. Therefore, the selectivity and its modification – generalized selectivity as the node centrality measures are included in the SBKE method. Selectivity-based extraction does not require linguistic knowledge as it is derived purely from statistical and structural information of the network and it can be easily ported to new languages and used in a multilingual scenario. The true potential of the proposed SBKE method is in its generality, portability and low computation costs, which positions it as a strong candidate for preparing collections which lack human annotations for keyword extraction. Testing of the portability of the SBKE was tested on Croatian, Serbian and English texts – more precisely it was developed on Croatian News and ported for extraction from parallel abstracts of scientific publication in the Serbian and English languages.
The constructed parallel corpus of scientific abstracts with annotated keywords allows a better comparison of the performance of the method across languages since we have the controlled experimental environment and data. The achieved keyword extraction results measured with an F1 score are 49.57% for English and 46.73% for the Serbian language, if we disregard keywords that are not present in the abstracts. In case that we evaluate against the whole keyword set, the F1 scores are 40.08% and 45.71% respectively. This work shows that SBKE can be easily ported to new a language, domain and type of text in the sense of its structure. Still, there are drawbacks – the method can extract only the words that appear in the text.
