TOPIC A: PLANNING A NETWORK

Before you begin any networking project, whether it’s a new network installation or an upgrade
of an existing network, you should first make a detailed plan. If you make technical decisions
too quickly, before studying all the issues that affect the project, you’ll regret it. You’ll discover
too late that a key application won’t run over the network, that the network has unacceptably
slow performance, or that key components of the network don’t work together.
Here are some general thoughts to keep in mind while you create your network plan:
 Don’t rush the plan

 Write down the network plan
 Ask someone else to read your network plan before you buy anything.
 Keep the plan up to date.
STEPS IN PLANNING A NETWORK
1. Purpose of the network

One of the first steps in planning your network is making sure that you understand why
you want the network. Make sure that you identify all the reasons why you think you
need a network and then write them down.
2. Taking the stock

One of the most challenging parts of planning a network is figuring out how to work with
the computers that you already have. In other words, you have to take a thorough
inventory of your current computers.
3. Type of Server
One of the most basic questions that a network plan must answer is whether the network
will have one or more dedicated servers or rely completely on peer-to-peer networking.
a. File Servers
b. Print Servers
c. Mail Servers

Department
d. Database Servers
4. Choosing a NOS
If you determine that your network will require one or more dedicated servers, the next
step is to determine what network operating system those servers should use. If possible,
all the servers should use the same NOS so that you don’t find yourself supporting
different operating systems.
Although you can choose from many network operating systems, from a practical point
of view, your choices are limited to the following:
 Windows Server 2003 or 2008

 Linux or another version of Unix
5. Planning the Infrastructure

Plan the details of how you will connect the computers in the network. This includes
determining which network topology that the network will use, what type of cable will
be used, where the cable will be routed, and what other devices, such as repeaters,
bridges, hubs, switches, and routers, will be needed.
6. Drawing Diagrams
One of the most helpful techniques for creating a network plan is to draw a picture of it.
The diagram can be a detailed floor plan, showing the actual location of each network
component. This type of diagram is sometimes called a physical map.

Department
TOPIC B: SELECTING A NETWORK CONNECTION

The biggest decision you need to make when creating your network is what type of connection
you will use. Gateway supports both wired and wireless Ethernet networks. Use the following
criteria as a guide when selecting a network connection.
Wired Ethernet network
A wired Ethernet network consists of two or more computers connected together through an
Ethernet cable. This connection type is commonly used in offices around the world and can be
used to build computer networks in the home.
Create a wired Ethernet network if:
 You are building a new home or your existing home already has Ethernet cable installed
in each room that has a device you want to connect
 You are creating a network in an office or business where network speed is more
important than moving about with your computer
 Your computer has an Ethernet jack for connecting to the network
Example wired Ethernet network

Department
Wireless Ethernet network
A wireless Ethernet network is ideal for creating a home or office network or adding mobility to
an existing wired Ethernet network. A wireless Ethernet network allows you the freedom to
move about your home or office with your notebook or tablet PC.
Create a wireless Ethernet (IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g or 802.11n) network if:
 You are looking for an alternative to installing cable for connectivity

 The ability to move about with your computer is as important as network speed
 Your computer has wireless Ethernet for networking

Department
TOPIC C: NETWORK MODEL
1. Workgroup Model
Microsoft’s workgroup model for networking distributes resources, administration, and
security throughout a network. Each computer in a workgroup can be a server, a client,
or both.
Advantage Disadvantage
Easy-to-share resources No centralized control of resources
Resources are distributed across all No centralized account management
machines
Little administrative overhead No centralized administration
Simple to design No centralized security management
Easy to implement Inefficient for more than 20 workstations
Convenient for small groups in close Security must be configured manually
proximity
Less expensive, does not require a central Increased training to operate as both client
server and server
2. Domain Model
By dedicating one or more servers to the job of controlling a domain, the domain model
adds a layer of complexity to networking. But the domain model also centralizes all
shared resources and creates a single point of administrative and security control.
Advantage Disadvantage
Centralized resource sharing Significant administrative effort and
overhead
Centralized resource controls Complicated designs; requires advanced

Department
planning
Centralized account management Requires one or more powerful, expensive
servers.
Centralized security management Support personnel need to be trained in
security management.
Efficient for virtually unlimited number of Expense for domain controllers and access
workstations lags increase with network size
Users need to be trained only to use Support personnel need to be trained in
clients domain network management.
Not restricted to close proximity Larger scope requires more user
documentation and training.
TOPIC D: STRUCTURED CABLING

Structured cabling specification T568 makes recommendations for the following basic elements
of networks:
 Building Entrance Requirements - Specifications for the point at which outside cabling
enters a building.
 Equipment Room - Storage area for the more expensive, complex equipment, often the
existing telecommunications closets.
 Backbone Cabling - Cabling (often referred to as vertical) that carries the signals from
equipment room to equipment room, between floors, and to and from the building
entrance connections.
 Horizontal Cabling- ransmission media that carries signals from a same floor equipment
room to the various work areas.
 Work Area - Any area where the computer workstations, printers, etc. are located,
typically office space.
Backbone Cabling Connects Equipment Rooms

Department
The wiring used for backbone cabling may be either copper or fiber optic.
Recommended backbone cable maximum distance limitations include:
 Voice grade 100 ohm UTP 800 meter limitation
 STP data grade 150 ohm 90 meter limitation
 Multimode 62.5/125μm fiber 2,000 meter limitation
 Patch cable 3 - 6 meter limitation
Horizontal Cabling

Department
Most often, horizontal cable is routed directly from the wiring closet to the workstation,
without splices, cable junctures, or taps. By eliminating splices, cable junctures and/or taps, the
potential for faulty connections and electrical noise is reduced. Although not necessary, it is
recommended that horizontal cabling be rated for category 5 use.
Maximum transmission speeds for horizontal cable are:

 Category 3 up to 16 MHz
Maximum recommended distance limitation for horizontal cable:
 100 meters total

 Maximum of 3 meters from wall jack to workstation
 Maximum of 6 meters in the telecommunications closet
 Maximum of 90 meters from telecommunications closet to wall jack

Department
The wall jack outlet must have a minimum of two ports, one for voice grade transmissions and
one for data grade transmissions. Recommended horizontal cabling includes:
 4-pair 100 ohm UTP

 2-pair 150 ohm STP
 2 fiber 62.5/125μm optical
NETWORK TOPOLOGY
1. Bus Topology - When computers were first networked together, they were simply
connected to one cable segment in a series.
2. Ring Topology – devices connected in a closed loop and have equal access.
3. Star Topology – Star topology is a point-to-point architectural design where all computer
devices are connected to a central hub, through which all data signals must travel.

Department
4. Hybrid Network Topology - Hybrid topology is any combination of bus, star, and ring
topology, for example, a star-bus configuration.
5. Mesh Topology - Every device is connected to every other device. Used in WANs to
interconnect LANs
6. Wireless Topology
 few cables are used to connect systems
 made up of transmitters that broadcast the packets using radio frequencies
 contains special transmitters called cells or wireless access point

Department
ACTIVITY 1: NETWORK DESIGN
Materials Needed
 Spreadsheet application
 Drawing application
 Cable cost analysis prepared
Work with a partner to create a list of questions you should ask a client who has hired you to
build a network. The client wants to know which type of cable you plan to use and why, how
much the cable will cost, and why you selected the particular topology. The client also wants
you to submit a proposal that defends your choice of cabling and network design.
After you create your questionnaire, role-play with your partner. One of you will assume the
role of client, and the other the role of the network designer. The client will answer all the
questions for a fictitious company of his/her choice. The network designer will record all of the
answers.
When the questionnaire is complete, you will both analyze the requirements and determine the
appropriate topology. Create a computer diagram of the proposed network for the client.
Prepare a spreadsheet that shows a cost analysis of the cable needed to complete the job. The
cost analysis should include the type of cable, length of cable, cost of each type of cable, and
the total cable cost. Use the cost information you gathered in the cabling lesson.
Submit a proposal to the client indicating the suggested network topology. Include a summary
to convince the client that this is the best, most cost efficient design for her/his needs. Your
proposal must also defend your cable choices. Attach the computer diagram and cable cost
analysis spreadsheet to your proposal.

Activity 1Building a Peer-to-Peer Network (XP meets 2003)
Objectives
Design and build a simple peer-to-peer network using a crossover cable supplied by the
instructor.
Verify connectivity between the peers using the ping command.
File and Printer Sharing
Background / Preparation
In this hands-on lab, you will plan and build a simple peer-to-peer network using two PCs and
an Ethernet crossover cable.
The following resources are required:
Two Window XP Professional PCs, each with an installed and functional Network
Interface Card (NIC)
An Ethernet crossover cable
Step 1: Diagram the network
a. A network diagram is a map of the logical topology of the network. In the space below,
sketch a simple peer-to-peer network connecting two PCs. Label one PC with IP address
192.168.1.1 and the other PC with IP address 192.168.1.2. Use labels to indicate connecting
media and any necessary network devices.

Department
b. A simple network like the one you designed can use a hub or switch as a central connecting
device, or the PCs may be directly connected. Which kind of cable is required for a direct
Ethernet connection between the two PCs?
____________________________________________________________________________
Step 2: Document the PCs
a. Check the computer name settings for each PC and make adjustments as necessary. For each
PC, select Start and Control Panel. Double-click the System icon, then click the Computer Name
tab. Write down the computer name that is displayed following Full computer name:
b. Check to see if the two PCs have the same name. If they do, change the name of one PC by
clicking the Change button, typing a new name in the Computer name field, then clicking OK.
c. Click OK to close the System Properties window.

Department
d. Why is it important that each PC on a network have a unique name?
Step 3: Connect the Ethernet cable
a. Use the Ethernet crossover cable provided by the instructor. Plug one end of the cable into
the
Ethernet NIC of PC1.
b. Plug the other end of the cable into the Ethernet NIC of PC2. As you insert the cable, you
should hear a click which indicates that the cable connector is properly inserted into the port.
Step 4: Verify physical connectivity
a. After the Ethernet crossover cable is connected to both PCs, take a close look at each
Ethernet port. A light (usually green or amber) indicates that physical connectivity has been
established between the two NICs. Try unplugging the cable from one PC then reconnecting it
to verify that the light goes off then back on.
b. Go to the Control Panel, double click the Network Connections icon, and confirm that the
local area connection is established. The following figure shows an active local area connection.
If physical connectivity problems exist, you will see a red X over the Local Area Connection icon
with the words Network cable unplugged.

Department
c. If the Local Area Connection does not indicate that it is connected, troubleshoot by repeating
Steps 3 and 4. You may also want to ask your instructor to confirm that you are using an
Ethernet crossover cable.
Step 5: Configure IP settings
a. Configure the logical addresses for the two PCs so that they are able to communicate
using TCP/IP. On one of the PCs, go to the Control Panel, double click the Network
Connections icon,
b. and then right click the connected Local Area Connection icon. Choose Properties from
the pull-down menu.

button to exit the Local Area Connection Properties window.
e. Repeat steps 5a – 5d for the second PC using the following information
Step 6: Verify IP connectivity between the two PCs
NOTE: To test TCP/IP connectivity between the PCs, Windows Firewall must be disabled
temporarily on both PCs. Windows Firewall should be re-enabled after the tests have been
completed.
a. On PC1, on the Windows XP desktop, click Start. From the Start menu, select Control Panel,
and double-click Network Connections.
b. Right-click the Local Area Connection icon and select Properties. Click the Advanced tab.
Locate and click the Settings button.:
c. Make a note of whether the firewall settings are ENABLED (ON) for the Ethernet port or
DISABLED (OFF) for the Ethernet port.
___________________________________________________________________________
Department
d. If the firewall settings are enabled, click the Off (not recommended) radio button to disable
the firewall. The setting will be re-enabled in a later step. Click OK in this dialog box and the
following to apply this setting.
e. Now that the two PCs are physically connected and configured correctly with IP addresses,
we need to make sure they communicate with each other. The ping command is a simple way
to accomplish this task. The ping command is included with the Windows XP operating system.
f. On PC1, go to Start, then Run. Type cmd, and then click OK. A Windows command prompt
window will appear as shown in the figure below.
g. At the > prompt, type ping 192.168.1.2 and press Enter. A successful ping will verify the IP
connectivity. It should produce results similar to those shown in here.
h. Repeat Steps 6a-6c on the second PC. The second PC will ping 192.168.1.1.
i. Close the Windows command prompt window on both PCs.

Step 7: Verify connectivity using My Network Places
a. A PC can share its resources with other PCs on the network. PCs with shared resources
should be visible through My Network Places. On PC1, go to Start, click My Network Places,
and then click View workgroup computers in the left pane

Department
b. Do you see an icon for the other PC in your peer-to-peer network?

______________________
c. What is the name of the other PC?

________________________________________________
d. Is it the same name you recorded in Step 2? ________________________________________
e. Perform Step 7a on the second PC.
f. Close any open windows.
Step 8: (Optional – Use only if the Firewall was originally ENABLED) Re-enable the firewall
a. If you disabled the Windows Firewall in Step 6, click Start, select Control Panel, and open the
Network Connections control panel.
b. Right-click the Ethernet network connection icon and select Properties. Click the Advanced
tab. Locate and click Settings.
c. If the firewall settings are disabled (and they were enabled before this lab began), click the
On radio button to enable the firewall. Click OK in this dialog box and the following one to apply
this setting.
Step 9: File and Printer Sharing

TOPIC B: UNDERSTANDING IP ADDRESS
IP ADDRESS
 A unique identifier for a node or host connection on an IP network

 A 32 bit binary number usually represented as 4 decimal values consist of 4
octet

Department
Example : 140.179.220.200
Convert to binary
140 179 220 200

10001100 10110011 11011100 11001000
1st octet 2nd octet 3rd octet 4th octet
TWO TYPES OF IP ADDRESS
1. IPv4 – Ex. 192.168.1.2
2. IPv6 - 128 bits long and are represented by 16-bit hexadecimal segments
Ex. 2001:0D02:0000:0000:0000:C003:0001:F00D
Subnet Mask
Applying subnet mask allows to identify the network and host part of the IP address.
Looking at a subnet mask, if there is a 255 in an octet, then the corresponding octet in
the IP address is part of the network ID. For example, if I had an IP address of
192.168.1.15 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the fi rst three octets would make up
the network ID and the last octet would be the host ID. The network ID assigns a unique
address to the network itself, while the host ID uniquely identifies the system on the
network.
Address Classes
Every IP address belongs to a distinct address class. The Internet community defi ned
these classes to accommodate networks of various sizes. The class to which the IP
address belongs initially determines the network ID and host ID portions of the address,

Department
along with the number of hosts that are supported on that network. The different class
addresses are named Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, and Class E.
Class A Addresses
IP address in which the first octet is between 1 and 126.
IP address that starts with 127 is a class A address as well, but you are not allowed to
use any address that starts with 127 because it is reserved for the loopback address
Loopback Address
A range of 127 has been reserved for the loopback address. The loopback address is
used to refer to the local system, also known as the local host. If you want to verify that
the TCP/IP software has initialized on the local system even though you may not have an
IP address, you may PING the loopback address, which is typically referred to as
127.0.0.1.
You can test your own local system by typing ping 127.0.0.1, ping local host, or ping
loopback, to verify that the TCP/IP protocol stack is functioning on your system.

NNNNNNNN NNNNNNNN NNNNNNNN HHHHHHHH
11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000
Class D Addresses
Class D addresses are used for special types of applications on the network known as
multicasting applications. Multicasting applications send data to a number of systems at
the same time by sending data to the multicast address, and anyone who has registered
with that address will receive the data. A multicast address is what class D addresses are
used for, so you will not be assigning them specifically to hosts on the network for
normal network communication. Class D addresses have a value on the first octet that
ranges from 224 to 239.
Class E Addresses
Class E addresses is that were designed for experimental purposes only, so you will not
ever see a class E address on a network. Class E addresses have a first octet with a value
that falls in the range of 240 to 254.
Department
Summary
CLASS 1ST Octet Value Default Subnet Number of Host

Mask per Network
CLASS A 1–126 255.0.0.0 16,777,214
CLASS B 128–191 255.255.0.0 65,534
CLASS C 192–223 255.255.255.0 254
CLASS D 224 to 239.
CLASS E 240 to 255
Private Addresses
Another type of address you need to be aware of is what is known as a private address.
A private address is an address that can be assigned to a system but cannot be used for
any kind of Internet connectivity. The private addresses are nonroutable addresses, so
any system using them will not be able to function off the network. The following are
the three address ranges that are the private address ranges:
■ 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
■ 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
■ 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
Not being able to route data across the Internet when using these addresses will not
pose a problem, because realistically, you will have these private addresses sitting
behind a network address translation (NAT) server that will translate the private address
to a public address that can be routed on the Internet

TOPIC C: IPv4 CUSTOM SUBNETTING
SUBNETTING
 The purpose of subnetting is to break one network ID into multiple subnetworks

(subnets) so that you can follow the physical structure of the network.
 With subnetting you take host bits from the subnet mask and mask them to be
network bits—thus creating more networks but fewer machines per network.
 To determine how many bits to take from the host ID portion of the subnet
mask.

Department
STEPS IN SUBNETTING
1. Determine the number of networks and convert in to binary.
2. Reserve bits in subnet mask and find your increment
3. Use your increment to find your network ranges

TOPIC D: INTERNET PROTOCOL VERSION 6

Department
IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6)
 IPv6 is a new version of IP which is designed to be an evolutionary step from IPv4

 The key to IPv6 enhancement is the expansion of the IP address space from 32 bits to
128 bits, enabling virtually unlimited unique IP addresses
 It is recommended by the Internet Engineering Task Force on July 25, 1994 (Toronto
IETF meeting)
 The IPv6 has auto configuration feature, automatically configures interface and Brouter
addresses for you
 IPv6 protocol can coexist with current IPv4 protocol
The IPv6 Address Space
IPv6 Conversion
Hexidecimal to Binary Conversion

Department
Pv6 Features
The following are the features of the IPv6 protocol:
 New header format

 Large address space
 Efficient and hierarchical addressing and routing infrastructure
 Stateless and stateful address configuration
 Built-in security
 Better support for prioritized delivery
 New protocol for neighboring node interaction
 Extensibility
IPv6 Implementations from Microsoft

Microsoft® has the following implementations of IPv6:
 The Next Generation TCP/IP stack in Windows Vista™ and Windows Server® 2008.
 The IPv6 protocol for the Windows Server 2003 family.
 The IPv6 protocol for Windows® XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later.
 The IPv6 protocol for Windows CE .NET version 4.1 and later.
The capture and parsing of IPv6 traffic is supported by Microsoft Network Monitor.
For all the IPv6 implementations from Microsoft, you can use IPv6 without affecting IPv4
communications.
IPv6 address notation
There are three possible notation types that can be used to represent IPv6 addresses. The
notation you use depends on the content of the address you want to represent.
1. Standard notation
The standard notation for IPv6 addresses is to represent the address as eight 16-bit
hexadecimal words separated by ``:'' (colons). For example:
FEDC:BA98:0332:0000:CF8A:000C:2154:7313

Department
NOTE: It is not necessary to specify leading zeros, as long as there is at least one
numeric value in each field of the address. The above address could also be represented
as FEDC:BA98:332:0:CF8A:C:2154:7313.
2. Compressed notation
Since a large number of IPv6 addresses contain multiple fields of zeros, there is a
notation you can use to represent a single contiguous group of zero fields within an IPv6
address. This notation is a double colon ``::''. Some examples of how to use the ``::'' are
shown below.
1762:0:0:0:0:B03:1:AF18
FF01:0:0:0:CA:0:0:2
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0
can be represented as:
1762::B03:1:AF18
FF01::CA:0:0:2
::1
::
NOTE: The FF01:0:0:0:CA:0:0:2 example is represented as FF01::CA:0:0:2 because only one ``::''

is allowed in an address.
3. Mixed notation
IPv4 addresses that are encapsulated in IPv6 addresses can be represented using the
original IPv4 ``.'' notation as follows:
0:0:0:0:0:0:127.32.67.15
0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:127.32.67.15
It is also possible to use the compressed notation, so the addresses above would be
represented as:
::127.32.67.15
::FFFF:127.32.67.15

Department
IPv6 Prefixes
The prefix is the part of the address that indicates the bits that have fixed values or are the bits
of the subnet prefix. Prefixes for IPv6 subnets, routes, and address ranges are expressed in the
same way as Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation for IPv4. An IPv6 prefix is written in
address/prefix-length notation. For example, 21DA:D3::/48 and 21DA:D3:0:2F3B::/64 are IPv6

address prefixes.
IPv6 Subnet Masking
What Gets Masked (Which Bits?)

Like IPv4, an IPv6 address has a network portion and a device portion. Unlike IPv4, an IPv6
address has a dedicated subnetting portion. Here's how the ranges are divided in IPv6:
Network Address Range

In IPv6, the first 48 bits are for Internet routing.
1111111111111111.1111111111111111.1111111111111111.0000000000000000.0000000000
000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000
Subnetting Range
The 16 bits from the 49th to the 54th are for defining subnets.
0000000000000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000.1111111111111111.0000000000
000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000
Device (Interface) Range:

The last 64 bits are for device (interface) ID's.
0000000000000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000.0000000000000000.1111111111
111111.1111111111111111.1111111111111111.1111111111111111
Let's say you want to break your corporate network into 64 subnets. The binary mask just for
the subnetting range would be1111110000000000 which translates to a hex value of FC00.
Some IPv6 masking tools will work with just this one hex word, otherwise a full 128-bit hex
mask would be FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FC00:0:0:0:0.
Types of IPv6 Addresses
1. Unicast - communicate specified 1 computer

Department
2. Multicast - communicate group of computers
3. Anycast
 send group address that can receive multiple computers,but receive 1 computer
Unicast IPv6 Addresses

The following types of addresses are unicast IPv6 addresses:
 Global unicast addresses

Global unicast addresses are equivalent to public IPv4 addresses. They are globally
routable and reachable on the IPv6 portion of the Internet.
 Link-local addresses
Link-local addresses are used by nodes when communicating with neighboring nodes on the
same link. For example, on a single link IPv6 network with no router, link-local addresses
are used to communicate between hosts on the link.
 Site-local addresses
Site-local addresses are equivalent to the IPv4 private address space (10.0.0.0/8,
172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16).
 Unique local IPv6 unicast addresses
 Special addresses
Special IPv6 Addresses

The following are special IPv6 addresses:
 Unspecified address
The unspecified address (0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 or ::) is only used to indicate the absence of an
address.
 Loopback address
The loopback address (0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 or ::1) is used to identify a loopback interface,

enabling a node to send packets to itself.

Department
Compatibility Addresses
To aid in the migration from IPv4 to IPv6 and the coexistence of both types of hosts, the
following addresses are defined:
 IPv4-compatible address
The IPv4-compatible address, 0:0:0:0:0:0:w.x.y.z or ::w.x.y.z (where w.x.y.z is the dotted
decimal representation of an IPv4 address), is used by IPv6/IPv4 nodes that are
communicating using IPv6.
 IPv4-mapped address
The IPv4-mapped address, 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:w.x.y.z or ::FFFF:w.x.y.z, is used to represent
an IPv4-only node to an IPv6 node. It is used only for internal representation.
 6 to 4 address
The 6to4 address is used for communicating between two nodes running both IPv4 and
IPv6 over an IPv4 routing infrastructure. The 6to4 address is formed by combining the
prefix 2002::/16 with the 32 bits of a public IPv4 address, forming a 48-bit prefix. 6to4 is
a tunneling technique described in RFC 3056.

Activity 4: Building a Network using 4 switch (Use Packet Tracer)
TOPIC A: TYPES OF WORKGROUPS
Workgroup
A group of computers that are connected on a network and share resources, such as
printers and files. When you set up a network, Windows automatically creates a
workgroup and gives it a name.
TYPES OF WORKGROUP
1. Direct Cable Connection

A Direct Cable Connection (DCC) is not really a workgroup configuration in the true
sense of the word, but it does bear mentioning here because it is a quick and easy
method to connect two computers together.
Using a DCC, you can establish a connection between a Windows XP computer and any
other Microsoft Windows computer that supports DCC connections.
2. Ethernet
Ethernet is a networking standard and the most popular kind of network in use
today. When you think of a network with a typical wired configuration, you are
generally thinking of Ethernet.
3. HomePNA

Department
HomePNA is another type of network topology that is designed for home use, but it
works well in small offices too. HomePNA networks use typical PCI or USB NICs,
but each NIC connects to a standard phone jack in the home or small office using a
standard RJ-11 phone cable. Rather than using a hub and having wiring running
everywhere, you simply use existing phone lines as the network.
4. Wireless Networks
Major Type of Wireless Network
1. Infrared—Infrared wireless uses an infrared beam to transmit data from one device
to the next, and is most often used in PC devices.
2. Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs)—A WPAN is a personal areanetwork,

meaning it resides in one generalized space, such as a room.
3. Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs)—A WLAN is a wireless network that exists
within one geographic location, such as in a home, office building, school, or other
such structure.
4. Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (WMANs)—WMANs allow communication

between different locations within a single metropolitan area.
5. Wireless Wide Area Networks (WWANs)—A WWAN connects WLANs that are
separated over wide geographic areas.
