Network types
LAN and WAN were the original categories of area networks, while the others
have gradually emerged over many years of technology evolution.

Basic Networking
As the term implies, a WAN spans a large physical distance. The Internet is the
largest WAN, spanning the Earth.
A WAN differs from a LAN in several important ways. Most WANs (like the Internet)
are not owned by any one organization but rather exist under collective or
distributed ownership and management. WANs tend to use technology
like ATM, Frame Relay and X.25 for connectivity over the longer distances.

Protocols
What is a Protocol?
A protocol is a set of rules that governs the communications between computers on a
network. These rules include guidelines that regulate the following characteristics of a
network: access method, allowed physical topologies, types of cabling, and speed of data
transfer.
Ethernet
The Ethernet protocol is by far the most widely used. Ethernet uses an access method
called CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection). This is a system
where each computer listens to the cable before sending anything through the network. If
the network is clear, the computer will transmit. If some other node is already transmitting on
the cable, the computer will wait and try again when the line is clear. Sometimes, two
computers will attempt to transmit in the same time. When this happens, a collision occurs.
Each computer then backs off and waits a random amount of time before attempting to
retransmit. With this access method, it is normal to have collisions. However, the delay
caused by collisions and retransmitting is very small and does not normally effect the speed
of transmission on the network.

Protocols
The Internet Protocol (IP) is a protocol used for communicating data across a
packet-switched internetwork using the Internet Protocol Suite, also referred to as
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol).
IP is the primary protocol in the Internet Layer of the TCP/IP Suite and has the
task of delivering distinguished packets from the source host to the destination
host solely based on their addresses.
For this purpose the IP defines an addressing system that has two functions.
Addresses identify hosts and provide a logical location service. Each packet is
tagged with a header that contains the meta-data for the purpose of delivery. This
process of tagging is also called encapsulation.
IP is a connectionless protocol and does not need circuit setup prior to
transmission (as opposed to the Telephony System).

Basic Networking
IP Addressing
"A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is. A route
indicates how to get there."
12
Basic Networking
IP Addressing
Although IP addresses are stored as binary numbers, they are usually displayed in
human-readable notations, such as 208.77.188.166
Each part represents 8 bits of the address, and is therefore called an octet.
In most representations each octet is converted individually, as you will see on the
next slide.

Example of IP address
14
Basic Networking
Physical addressing
Thus, computers are identified on the network as having a physical and a logical address.
15
Basic Networking
Network Devices
A network switch is a hardware device that joins multiple computers together
within one local area network (LAN).
Network switches are capable of inspecting data packets as they are received,
determining the source and destination device of each packet, and forwarding
them appropriately. They make decisions based on the MAC address of the
source and destination computers.
By delivering messages only to the connected device intended, a network switch
conserves network bandwidth.
16
Basic Networking
Network Devices
A router is a device that interconnects two or more computer networks, and selectively
interchanges packets of data between them.
Each data packet contains address information that a router can use to determine if the
source and destination are on the same network, or if the data packet must be transferred
from one network to another.
Where multiple routers are used in a large collection of interconnected networks, the routers
exchange information about target system addresses, so that each router can build up a
table showing the preferred paths between any two systems on the interconnected
networks.

nslookup is a computer program used in Windows and Unix to query Domain Name
System (DNS) servers to find DNS details, including IP addresses of a particular computer,
the name of the computer, etc.
The name nslookup means "name server lookup".
The DNS servers keep a record of all the computers in the network and link each IP address
to a specific hostname (computer name).
19
Basic Networking
Ipconfig
Displays all current TCP/IP network configuration values and refreshes Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) and Domain Name System (DNS) settings. Used without parameters, ipconfig displays
the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway for all adapters.
Syntax
ipconfig [/all] [/renew [Adapter]] [/release [Adapter]] [/flushdns] [/displaydns] [/registerdns]
[/showclassid Adapter] [/setclassid Adapter [ClassID]]
Parameters
/all : Displays the full TCP/IP configuration for all adapters.
/renew [Adapter] : Renews DHCP configuration for all adapters (if an adapter is not specified) or for a
specific adapter if the Adapter parameter is included.
/release [Adapter] : Sends a DHCPRELEASE message to the DHCP server to release the current DHCP
configuration and discard the IP address configuration for either all adapters (if an adapter is not specified)
or for a specific adapter if the Adapter parameter is included. This parameter disables TCP/IP for adapters
configured to obtain an IP address automatically.
/?: Displays help at the command prompt.

Security
Windows Firewall drops incoming traffic that does not correspond to either traffic
sent in response to a request of the computer (solicited traffic) or unsolicited traffic
that has been specified as allowed (excepted traffic). Windows Firewall helps
provide protection from malicious users and programs that rely on unsolicited
incoming traffic to attack computers.

Remote Assistance is a tool that comes with Windows XP and can help
a technician solve issues on a computer remotely.
It requires that the user is logged on, and both the user and the technician
can see the screen at the same time, interact, take control and chat.

Remote Desktop Connection is also a tool included in Windows XP, and is used
to connect to a computer on the network and work remotely as if you were
physically in front of that computer. This requires the remote user to be logged off
so that you can logon with your user-id.

NetMeeting is a conference tool that can be used to share the Desktop or single
applications, chat and share files among several users at the same time. You can
also take control of a shared session and interact with it.
NetMeeting works by calling another computer based on IP address or choosing
someone from the Address Book.

Network Troubleshooting
When troubleshooting network issues, always start from the physical layer and work your
way to the software problems.
Is the network cable plugged in? LED lights blinking on the Network Card?
Is the network card disabled in Windows? Check Device Manager or Network
Connections
Is the IP address correctly configured? Check if manual or automatic IP address should be
set.
Can you PING the computer?
DNS issue? Try nslookup
Application issue? Is this happening for all applications or just one? Check Windows
Firewall
