  4. Communication network What is communication network? A network which sends or shares information to a wide number of people. (Taylor D, 2012) So what is a network? A collection of computers or hardware devices which are connected together to share : hardware (such as a Bus e.g. Accelerated Graphic Port or a USB (Oak, Examples of Computer Hardware: Buzzle.com, N.D)), software (such as an operating system e.g. Microsoft office(Oak, 2012)) or data (such as dates and names or other information) (Morlet D, 2011) (Morlet D, 2011) What does this simply mean? It means that information needs to be sent or shared to other people using computer network methods or hardware devices

  5. Communication networksCan you name some? Advantages • Speed • Resource sharing • Email • Shared drives • Security for files or programs (Akande. P, N.D) Disadvantages: • Multiple people on a network can slow down performance • System is open to hackers • Network faults can cause loss of data • Server fault can stop programs being available. (Akande. P, N.D)

  7. Types of Networkscommunication takes place over varying networks these are listed below LAN • Local Area Network • Small area • Home, office or school (Morlet D, 2011) Image from (Edraw, 2004-2012) WAN • Wide area networks • Covers a large geographical data • Consists of two or more LANs (Morlet D, 2011) Image from (Edraw, 2004-2012)

  8. Types of Networks MAN • Metropolitan area networks • Metropolitan area such as a city or town • Operated by a city or town. Some can be created by Microsoft or Google • Less than 48.3km in size (Morlet D, 2011) Image from (Blogspot, 2010) VPN • Virtual private network • Private secure path across a public network • Through a process called tunnelling which allows data to be sent securely via the internet (Morlet D, 2011) Image from (Cybozu Share360, N.D)

  10. What is a Protocol? • Set of Rules that enables effective communication to occur • A protocol suite is created when protocols are matched (D, 2011)

  11. “The Transport Layer is responsible for the delivery of messages between two or more networked hosts. It handles fragmentation and reassembly of messages and controls the reliability of a given link. • Some protocols include: • Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) • User Datagram Protocol (UDP)” (Tech-FAQ, N.D) “The Application layer provides the necessary services that support applications Some application protocols include File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)” (Tech-FAQ, N.D) 7 4 “The Presentation layer is responsible for transforming information or data into format(s) the application layer can use. Some functions performed are: Data translation. Data encryption and decryption Data compression” (Tech-FAQ, N.D) 6 “The Network Layer is primarily responsible for establishing the paths used for transfer of data packets between devices on the network.” (Tech-FAQ, N.D) 3 “The Data-link layer of the OSI model enables the movement of data over a link from one device to another, by defining the interface between the network medium and the software on the computer. The Data-link layer maintains the data link between two computers to enable communications” (Tech-FAQ, N.D) • “Functions performed at Session layer to establish, maintain and terminate communication sessions are: • Establishes, terminates, and monitors communication sessions between applications • Name lookup and security functions. • Data synchronization. • Controls whether the communication or messages being exchanged in a session are transmitted as full duplex messages or half duplex messages.” (Tech-FAQ, N.D) 2 5 “The Physical layer deals with establishing a physical connection between computers to enable communication. The physical layer is hardware specific and deals with the actual physical connection between the computer and the network medium. All devices that function at the Physical layer handle signalling” 1 Image and Quotes Referenced From: Tech-FAQ. (N.D). The OSI Model – What It Is; Why It Matters; Why It Doesn’t Matter.

  12. TCP/IP • Explanation....Divide and win Puzzle Example This analogy is directly from the website http://www.petervaldivia.com/technology/networks/tcp-ip.php “If I have a 10000 piece puzzle and I want to send it to Tokyo, my TCP friend will pack it all up in several envelopes, so I will probably need about 325 stamps. Now my friend IP will carry all of them and will visit some transport agencies such as Australia post, express post, the post-office, etc. Every firm has its own routes so every envelope will take a different path from my house to Tokyo. My Japanese friend has another IP friend who will pick up all the envelopes, then give them to its Japanese friend TCP who will do the puzzle so my Japanese friend can see the puzzle.” (Petervaldivia, 2008) So the TCP arranges the “puzzle” into smaller portions this is transmitted over the internet and received by the TCP server layer. The packets are then put into a file. The IP looks after the address’s of each packet. Each gateway computer checks the address to see where to forward the file (Petervaldivia, 2008).

  13. Protocols AppleTalk • Used for apple computers • This suite includes a physical and data link layer called Local talk. • (D, 2011) Netbui • Pronounced net-booey. • Extended User Interface. • It is a transport layer protocol and is now considered obsolete. (Webopedia , 2012) • Netbeui was originally designed by IBM and Microsoft networks for their LAN Manager server (D, 2011) IPX/SPX • Was used for NetWare servers • Similar to TCP/IP therefore now only rarely used (D, 2011)

  15. Data transmission modeshttp://etutorials.org/Networking/Lan+switching+first-step/Chapter+1.+Networking+Basics/Data+Transmission+Modes/ Full Duplex • Data can travel in both directions at the same time • Other example is like a telephone Image From (eTutorials.org, 2008-2012) Half Duplex • Data travels in either direction but not at the same time • Other examples is like a walkie talkie Image from (eTutorials.org, 2008-2012) Simplex • Data travels in a single direction • Other examples is like a door bell Image From (eTutorials.org, 2008-2012)

Retrieved from Tech-FAQ: http://www.tech-faq.com/difference-between-bit-rate-and-baud-rate.html

  17. Data Transmission Rates • Baud rates Vs Bits per second • “A baud Rate is the number of times per second a signal in a communications channel changes.” (Tech-FAQ) • “A Bit Rate is how many data bits are transmitted per second.” (Tech-FAQ) • “A bit can represent only two levels, and a symbol can represent two or more levels. Therefore, bit rate is always greater than or equal to baud rate.” (Difference Between.com, 2011) • “In most of the current technologies, bit rate is much higher than the baud rate.” (Difference Between.com, 2011)

  19. Data Transmission Media Wired networks are networks which are physically connected via caballing such as telephone, cable TV. Usually found in school, businesses and government agencies Wireless networks are networks which send data through the air to another device these are usually radio signals. Some examples include radio and mobile phones. Usually found in homes, universities and some businesses

  21. Client server Vs. Peer-Peer networks Peer-Peer May not have any servers but allows communications between workstations as if all workstations were equal (D, 2011) Advantages • Easy to set up and less time consuming • No dedicated server computer needed • Cost effective • Easy to manage (D, 2011) Disadvantages: • Smaller networks • Security issues (have to share) • Performance management • Lack of standardisation (D, 2011) Client Server A client server network is defined as specific type of online network comprised of a single central computer acting as a server that directs multiple other computers, which are referred to as the clients. (Paul Parsons, 1999-2012) Advantages: • Can be updated by other computers and still maintaining only one control centre for the action. • makes it possible for companies to distribute information, upload data, or reach the program without being tied down to one individual computer site • Because the information is stored online, a client server model creates more power and control over what is being saved • increased security, often with encryption, ensuring that the data is only available to qualified individuals. (Paul Parsons, 1999-2012) Disadvantages: • system overload • If too many different clients attempt to reach the shared network at the same time, there may be a failure or a slowing down of the connection • if the network is down, this disables access to the information from any site or client anywhere (Paul Parsons, 1999-2012)

  22. Activity • Who wants to be a computer geek • Four groups each group choose a name • Based on the presentation answer questions you have one min to discuss with your group the answer write the answer down and ansewers will be given at the end • The group with the most correct answers will be given a prize. • Rules: any groups found communicating with others will be deducted one point.
