  2. Homework re-cap • Lets go through the last piece of homework set. • You were asked what the individual components listed did as part of a home network…

  3. In this lesson students are learning about: • equipment needed to set up a home network • how to set up a simple home network

  4. At the end of this lesson students will be able to: • set up a simple home network

  5. Practical session • Split your self into groups • You will be given a card with a task on it • You will have to work as a group to figure out how to set up the network configuration required by the card • Fill in “practical network scenario.doc” as you go along • Here are the scenarios….

  7. Card 1 Sharing a printer • The Smiths have one printer, which is in the study. They want to be able to print documents from any computer in the house, using the network. • Using the equipment provided, set up a network which enables multiple computers to share a printer. • Equipment: • 2x PCs • 1x printer • 1x router (optionally with WiFi support) • 1x printer server (optional) • Ethernet cables (optional)

  8. Card 2 File sharing The Smiths often want to share files between different computers within the house. Sometimes they only need read access (such as playing music), other times they need full access (shared documents). Visitors to the Smith household may use the family’s internet access (via WiFi). Mr and Mrs Smith do not want visitors to be able to access any of their files. Using the equipment provided, set up a network which allows files to be accessed by different computers on the network. Demonstrate the different shared files can have different restrictions (read only, read/write, public, log-in required). Equipment: 2x PCs 1x router (optionally with WiFi) 1x external USB hard driver (optional) 1x external networked attached storage device (optional) Ethernet cables (optional)

Some devices support WiFi, others require a cable connection. The devices owned by the Smiths included are in the table below: The Smiths would like all their devices to be able to use their broadband connection. Using the equipment provided, set up a suitable network which would allow connections by all these devices. Equipment: 1x router/switch 1x cable or ADSL or 3G modem (if not integrated in the router/switch) Ethernet cables At least TWO of the following: 1x PC 1x laptop/netbook 1x WiFi capable phone 1x Ethernet enabled Blu-Ray disc or DVD player 1x WiFi/cable enable games console 1x tablet PC 1x media streaming device (e.g. AppleTV)
