CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Set up in 1973, the Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) is a program that
provides an avenue for students in tertiary institution to gain pritical industrial exposure in their
respective disciples during the course of their studies. This is to enable students to fix easily into
industrial work environment after their academic careers. The SIWES was designed to bridge the
divede between theoretical acquired knowledge by undergraduates in the University and its real life
applications.
This curriculum brings the various lessons taught at the various stages of the students' educational
upbringing in their various fields of vocation.
CHAPTER TWO
INTERNETWORKING
Connection of several computers in the same physical location to form a Local Area Network
[LAN] was the first major computer based operation I carried out during my industrial training
with Arizona networks. I was made to understand that several reasons exist for computer network,
this include but no limited to, sharing of files, transfer of files, sharing of applications and resoures
like the printer. I was equally introduced to other complex uses of a computer network such as the
the VPN and VoIP but I will be talking about that in later chapters as I will presently be talking on
the basics of computer network.

The OSL model is a seven-layer framework that defines and describes how software or hardware
operating at that layer will act on the data packet being sent. The model consists of two functional
blocks;
The application block which is made up of three layers which include the application,
presentation and the session layer. It is responsible for connecting software programs to the
network.
The network block consists of the lower four layers which are, transport, network, datalink and the physical layer.

Application layer; this layer provides services and utilities that enables application
programs to access a network and its resources. This enables application to save files to the
network server or print to network printers. The application layer also advertises resources
that each system has available for network use.
