LO1: Examine networking principles and their protocols
I. (P1) Discuss the benefits and constraints of different network types

and standards.
1. What is network?
1.1 Define network.

A network is a system of connected elements that work together. Computer networks connect PCs,
printers, servers, phones, cameras, and other types of devices. Computer networks connect devices,
allow them to exchange data, and facilitate sharing of information and resources.
A network consisting of 2 or more

computers linked together to share
resources (e.g., internal machines
and CDs), exchange files and
communicate. Computers can be
connected via wires, phone lines,
radio
waves, satellites, or infrared rays.
There are three popular networks
today:
- Metropolitan Area Network
(MAN Network)
11
- Wide Area Network (WAN
Network)
- Local Area Network (LAN

Figure1- 1 Network
13
1.2 Network type (MAN, WAN,LAN etc.)
LAN
LAN (Local Area Network), also known as a local area network, is used in a limited area with high
transmission speed.
Devices using LAN can share resources with each other, typically sharing files, printers, ... and some
other devices.
- Advantages of LAN
High transmission speed, support to connect many devices quickly. Although limited in connection
range, it costs less, uses less wires, and is easy to administer.
Figure1- 2 LAN
 Man
MAN (Metropolitan Area Network), also known as urban network, links from many LANs via cables,
other transmission means,... The ability to connect in a large range such as in a town or city , conscious.
14
The MAN network model is often used mainly for organizations and businesses with many branches and
departments connected to each other.
Man network is often used for businesses because this model provides many types of services such as
connecting lines via voice (voice), data (data), video (image), deploying applications easily. .
- Advantages of MAN network network. The large connection range makes interaction between business
parts easy, efficient, low cost, stable transmission speed, information security, simple management.
Figure1- 3 MAN
Wan
WAN (Wide Area Network), also known as wide area network, is a combination of urban networks
including MAN and LAN through satellite equipment, optical cables, and power cables.
Wide area network was created to connect on a large scale across the country. The protocol used in the
WAN is TCP/IP, the bandwidth varies depending on the installation location.
15
- Advantages of WAN
Figure1- 4 WAN
Large connectivity, no signal limitation, easy information sharing, data storage. Relative transmission
speed varies by region or transmission device.
1.3 Benefit of the network

The Internet is extremely important and brings a lot of benefits to the entire global humanity. The
Internet makes information transfer quickly, you can access information on the internet at almost
any location on the globe. For the sake of simplicity, to summarize the internet has the following
benefits:
 High speed.
 Can run large online applications thanks to strong bandwidth
 Cheap and easy to manage
Look up and learn a huge store of information online
Help people do business, sell online, make money and increase jobs
Linking friends and relatives through social networks like Facebook, vegetable garden Zalo
Send and receive mail, read online news
Watch movies, listen to music online, play games
Using social networking apps…
16
Figure1- 5 Networking Benefits
1.4 Constraint of the network

A constraint network represents a mathematical relationship between several variables and is able to
compute the value of any one of these variables given the values of all the others.
There are two types of nodes in a constraint network: cells and constraints. Cells represent variables
(read-only cells represent constants) and constraints represent primitive mathematical relationships
such as z = x + y and z = x * y. The neighbors of a constraint are the cells that it constrains. The neighbors
of a cell are the constraints that constrain it.

Protocol
A protocol is a set of established rules that define how to format, transmit, and receive data so that
computer network devices - from servers and routers to endpoints - can communicate with each other. ,
regardless of the differences in infrastructure, design, or basic standards between them.
Figure1- 8 Protocol
 Standard
An Internet standard is a specification that is very beneficial to the Internet, has proven to be
mature, and is supported by the general public. This title is awarded by the Internet Architecture
Council on the recommendation of the Internet. Engineering Task Force (IETF). Standardized
procedures were introduced in late 1988. The whole process takes at least a few months and often
takes several years. In many cases, it is postponed indefinitely. Each Internet standard is either a
selected Request for Comments, or a set of multiple RFCs.
Figure1- 9 Standards
23
 Network protocol definition
A network protocol is a set of rules that a network must follow. Network protocols are formal standards
and policies made up of rules, procedures, and formats that define communication between two or
more devices over a network.
Figure1- 10 Netwrok Protocols
1.6List some protocols : TCP/IP, HTTP,DNS,ICMP
Internet Protocol (IP)
Internet Protocol Suite
The Internet Protocol Suite is a collection of protocols that implement the protocol stack on which the
Internet runs. The Internet Protocol Suite is sometimes referred to as the TCP/IP protocol suite. TCP and
IP are important protocols in the Internet Protocol Suite - Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and
Internet Protocol (IP). The Internet Protocol Suite is similar to the OSI model, but with some differences.
Also, not all layers correspond well.
Figure1- 11 Internet Protocol
24
 Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
HTTP is the data communication platform for the World Wide Web. Hypertext is structured text that
uses hyperlinks between nodes containing the text. HTTP is an application protocol for distributed and
hybrid hypermedia information systems.
HTTP's default port is 80 and 443. Both of these ports are secure.
Figure1- 12 HTTP
DNS( Domain Name System)
DNS (Domain Name System) or domain name resolution system, can be explained as a system that helps
humans and computers "communicate" with each other more easily (Because of their communication
language). We are names and letters, and computers can only understand sequences of numbers!) The
system helps to translate domain names (hostnames) into strings of numbers, so that computers can
Figure1- 13 DNS
understand.
 ICMP( Internet Control Message Protocol)
ICMP stands for Internet Control Message Protocol. Readers can understand simply a protocol of the
Internet Protocol packet, also known as the control protocol on the network.
ICMP is used to report errors that occur during the transmission of data packets on the network. Or used
to probe and manage the operation of the network.

II. (P2)Network topology & communication and Bandwidth requirements
1.Network topology definition

Network topology is the arrangement of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer network.
Primarily, it is the topological structure of a computer network, and can be described in terms of physics and logic.
The physical topology (physical topology) is the arrangement of the various network elements, including
equipment storage and cabling settings, while the logical topology (logical topology) specifies how the data flow in
the network works. Node distances, physical intersections, transmission rates, and/or signal types can vary
between two networks even though their topologies may be identical.
Figure1- 16 Network topology definition
2.Discuss the Impact of topology

Definition: Physical & Logical Topology.
➢Physical Topology: Physical topology is Physical topology. The interconnected topology of a local area
network is physical topology (LAN). Connecting physical devices on a network using cables and cables
forms the physical topology.
➢ Logical Topology: Logical Topology is Logical Topology... The logical topology can be automatically
maintained and reconfigured by using network devices such as routers and switches. The topology is
opposed to physical topology, which refers to the physical interconnection of all network devices.
A logical topology is a concept in a network that defines the architecture of the communication
mechanism for all nodes in a network. Using network devices such as routers and switches, the logical
topology of a network can be automatically maintained and reconfigured. The topology is anti-logical
with the physical topology, which refers to the physical interconnection of all devices in the network.
27
Figure1- 17 Logical and Physical
3.Examples of topology with diagrams (Bus, Ring, Star, Tree, Hybrid, Mesh)
Bus Topology
Bus topology using a single cable connecting all nodes is included. The main cable acts as a backbone for
the entire network. One of the computers in the network acts as a server. When it has 2 endpoints, it is
called a linear BUS topology.
Figure1- 18 Bus
Star topology
In a star topology, all computers connect with the help of a hub. This cable is called the hub node and all
other nodes are connected using this hub. It is most popular on LANs because they are cheap and easy to
set up.
28
Figure1- 19 Star
Ring topology
In a Ring network, every device has exactly 2 neighbors for communication purposes. It is called a ring
structure, because its formation resembles a ring. In this topology, every computer is connected to
another computer. Here, the last node is combined with the first node.
This topology uses tokens to transfer information from one computer to another. In this topology, all
messages go through a ring in the same direction.
Figure1- 20 Ring
 Mesh Topology
Mesh topology has a unique network design in which each computer on the network connects to each
other. It is developed a P2P connection between all network devices. It provides a high degree of
redundancy, so even if one network cable fails, data has an alternate path to its destination.
Types of mesh topology:
Partial Mesh Topology: In this type of topology, most of the connected devices are almost similar to a full
topology. The only difference is that at least the device is connected to only 2 or 3 devices.
29
Figure1- 21 Mesh
Tree Topology
A tree topology has a root node and all other nodes connected together forming a hierarchy. So it is also
known as hierarchical topology. This topology integrates different star topologies in a single bus, so it is
called star topology. Tree topology is a very common network similar to star and bus topology.
Figure1- 22 Tree
30
Hybrid topology
Hybrid topology combines 2 or more topologies. As shown in the figure, you can see in an office that
uses two links: Start and P2P. Hybrid topologies are always created when 2 different underlying network
topologies are connected.
Figure1- 23 Hybird
4.Communication and Bandwidth

5.Define Communications In Terms Of Networking.
Network communication, also known as internetworking, refers to a collection of protocols (rules and
standards) that allow application programs to communicate with one another regardless of the
hardware and operating systems on which they are executed. Internetworking enables application
programs to interact with one another regardless of their physical network connectivity.
Figure1- 24 Bandwidth
6.Rules of communication
 Protect your data, do not rely on the network.
Recognize the danger.
31
Design service protection as close to the service as possible.
Publish routes by default.
Encrypt without compromising performance.
Protect your networks.
Layer your security.
 Design for interworking and flexibility.
Use open standards.
Maximize the use of commoditized services.
Consolidate the use of data networks and migrate to IP-based technologies.
Publish DNS names.
Join up to provide resilience.
 Understand the user
Understand your basic network requirements.
Design networks for a roaming user base.
Design services to be accessed broader than your department
Design for organizations who share a site to share the site's network.
Be able to support your users.
4.Bandwidth
➢ Bandwidth requirements for

the networks.
The term "bandwidth" is now
widely used in technology and
human life in general. In the
Website
field, bandwidth refers to the
maximum amount of data
exchanged between a website or a
32
server and a user in a given unit of
time, usually a second. The higher
the bandwidth limit, the
more data can be transferred
(download/upload). Web access
requests will be denied if
bandwidth is exhausted.
Bits per second are the most
commonly used unit of
measurement for bandwidth.
Modern
networks are frequently measured
in millions of bits per second
(Mbps) or billions of bits per
second (bps) due to their high
capacity (gigabits per second -
Gbps).
➢ Bandwidth requirements for the networks. The term "bandwidth" is now widely used in technology
and human life in general. In the Website field, bandwidth refers to the maximum amount of data
33
exchanged between a website or a server and a user in a given unit of time, usually a second. The higher
the bandwidth limit, the more data can be transferred (download/upload). Web access requests will be
denied if bandwidth is exhausted. Bits per second are the most commonly used unit of measurement for
bandwidth. Modern networks are frequently measured in millions of bits per second (Mbps) or billions
of bits per second (bps) due to their high capacity (gigabits per second - Gbps).

III. (P3) Discuss the operating principles of networking devices and
server types.
1.Switch
Switch is an important switching device in the network, used to connect network segments together in a
star model. In this model, the switch plays a central role and all other satellite devices including
34
computers are connected here, thereby creating a temporary connection for data transfer. In addition,
the Switch supports Full Duplex technology to expand the bandwidth of the transmission line, which
other devices cannot do.
In simple terms, a Switch can be understood as a traffic policeman that routes the data of a local area
network. It has the ability to choose the path to decide to forward frames (units of the data link layer) so
the LAN works more efficiently. The switch is able to identify the machine it is connected to by reading
the source MAC address in the frame it receives. When two machines in the network communicate with
each other, the switch itself creates a virtual circuit between the two respective ports without affecting
traffic on other ports.
Figure1- 25 Swith
Switching principles in a network:

Step 1: PC-HN sends a packet to PC-SG via its own channel when connected to the switch.
Step 2: They will convert the data into a data frame, validate the MAC address in the data frame's source
MAC field, and save the MAC address in the MAC address database alongside the incoming port number.
Step 3: Toggle checks the MAC address in the frame's destination mac field and the MACaddress-table to
see if it is already in the table.
Step 4: If the destination mac address is already in the mac table, the switch looks for the corresponding
outgoing port and forwards the unicast frame to that port.
Step 5: If the destination MAC address entry is not found in the MAC table, the switch will broadcast the
frame data to all other connected ports.
Step 6: PC-NA, PC-DN, and PC-SG receive the frame as a packet and compare their IP addresses to the
packet's destination IP address.
Step 7: PC-B and PC-C will reject the packet because their IP addresses do not match the packet's
destination IP address. PC-IP D's address, on the other hand, corresponds to the packet's destination IP
address.
Step 8: PC-SG will send an acknowledgement packet to PC-HN.
Step 9: Convert to receive an acknowledgement frame from PC-SG on port 4, validate the MAC address
in the source MAC field, and store the MAC address along with the incoming port number in the MAC
address database.
Step 10: Validate the destination MAC address from the frame, check the MAC address table to confirm
the MAC address entry. The switch has learned and cached the MAC address of PC-HN, and now unicasts
acknowledge the incoming packet to PC-A.
Step 11: When the switch learns the MAC addresses of all the PCs or nodes, it always sends unicast
frames to the network's connected nodes.
35
2.Router
Router (router or router) is a network device used to deliver data packets to end devices. In a word,
Router is a device to share the Internet to many other devices in the same network layer.

If the router cannot locate the configuration file, it enters setup mode. The setting will be saved in the
NV-Ram when done in setup mode.
Step 1: Start the network router by loading bootstrap.. The following are the three steps in the process
of starting the IOS software: - Hardware testing -> IOS software download -> Locate and execute the
startup configuration file. Following the POST procedure, the router will perform the following actions:
To begin, use the bootstrap loader from Rom. gzip.
Step 2: Locate the IOS on flash drives or networks.
Step 3: Download and install the operating system.
Step 4: The configuration file in the NV-Ram is copied to the main memory and executed line by line. Set
network communication port addresses and use the routing command...
Step 5: If the configuration file does not exist in the NV-Ram, the operating system will attempt to
connect to the TFTP server. If no TFTP is found, the installation mode will begin
3.Other commonly used networking devices

Hub.
36
Hub is the central point of connection for devices in the network. They are used to connect LANs, they
have a lot of ports to do that. When a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to other ports so that other
ports can recognize the packet.
Figure1- 27 Hub
Switch.
Switch is the central device and all other devices will connect to this device to transfer data. In addition,
more modern Switch devices that support Full Duplex technology are also used to expand the bandwidth
of the transmission line.

4.List server types (web server, mail server, DB Serve, DNS Server, DHCP Server)
Server also known as server is a computer (hardware and software) connected to a computer network or
the internet. On the server install additional software or a dedicated computer. Or multiple networked
computers with storage capacity to serve and provide
40
Figure1- 35 List server types
Wed server
Web server means a web server, which is a mainframe computer connected to an extended set of
computer networks. The server contains all the data it is authorized to manage. Each server has its own
IP and can read a variety of languages such as HTML, HTM, File, etc. The server has a large capacity and
very high speed to be able to store and operate well the data warehouse on the internet. Through the
separate communication port of each server, the computer system is able to operate more smoothly.
The server must ensure continuous operation to be able to provide data to its computer network.
Figure1- 36 Web server
Mail server
The basic Mail Server is still a Dedicated Server (individual Server) or Cloud Server (cloud
computing server) configured to turn into a machine to send and receive email. It also has all the
same parameters as a normal Server such as Ram, CPU, Storage, etc. In addition, it also has other
parameters related to Email factors such as the number of Email accounts, Email forwarder, Mail
list, etc. …
41
Figure1- 37 Mail server
DB Server
A database server is a computer system that provides other computers with services related to
accessing and retrieving information from databases. Access to the database server can take place
through a front end running locally on the user's machine (for example, phpMyAdmin) or a back
end running on the database server itself, accessed using a remote shell. After the information in
the database is retrieved, it is exported to the person requesting the data.
Figure1- 38 DB Server
DNS Server
DNS Server, also known as Domain Name System, is an ordered naming system for computers and
services participating in the Internet. It associates a variety of information with the domain names
assigned to them so that users can use that domain to find out the information they need to know.
42
It is important to choose a domain name that makes sense to the user, which is linked to other
network devices to locate and provide information to users around the world.
Figure1- 39 DNS Server
DHCP Server
DHCP server - DHCP server: is a device connected to the network that returns the necessary
information to the DHCP client when requested. BOOTP relay agents - A BOOTP relay device: is a
workstation or a router capable of forwarding DHCP messages between the DHCP server and the DHCP
client.

IV. (P4) Discuss the inter-dependence of workstation hardware with relevant
networking software.
1.Explain What Is Meant By Interdependencies.

Network interface card (NIC) Establishes and manages the computer’s network connection.
Translates digital computer data into signals (appropriate for the networking medium) for outgoing
messages and translates signals into digital computer data for incoming messages.
Device driver: a small, specialized program that represents a device to an OS and manages
communications between the OS and NIC.
EX: The web browser communicates with the webserver to retrieve web page data using the hypertext
transfer protocol (HTTP). It is a TCP / IP-based communication protocol that provides data on the World
Wide Web. It provides standards for computers to communicate with each other.
HTTP determines how the client requests to build and send data to the server; and how the server
responds to these requests.
HTTP client: is a program (Web browser or another client) used to establish a connection to the server
to send one or more HTTP request messages. HTTP server: is a program (Apache webserver or Network
Information Service - IIS) used to accept connections to the server from HTTP requests by sending HTTP
feedback. Moreover, a web client wants to get information from a web server. They start with the web
interface on the client's pc to take the command request. Then the web client communicates with the
webserver through a NIC card to take HTTP packets from the webserver. The web client takes the HTTP
from the web server and shows it on applications to the users.
Conclusion: workstation hardware with relevant networking software is dependent on each other, as
they must communicate with each other but achieve that, they need support from some hardware
components. Additionally, the hardware requires a driver to manage communications between the os
and the hardware.
Define Workstation Hardware
Computer hardware is the physical components that computer systems require in order for it to
function. It covers everything with a circuit board that works in a PC or laptop; includes 1 motherboard,
graphics cards, CPU (Central Processing Unit), ventilation fan, webcam, power supply, and so on.
Workstations have input/output devices such as keyboards, mice, etc. like regular computers, but they
are equipped with quality components, durable, professional, and more durable than regular computers.
. A server is a type of computer that does not have input/output devices like workstations and ordinary
computers.
- Configuration and performance
Equipped with the latest generation configuration, there is a dedicated graphics card that is rarely found
in regular PC models. Quickly handle heavy tasks such as complex graphics processing. The processing
ability of computers and servers is slow and often takes a long time.
- Microprocessor
The workstation uses extremely powerful CPU performance with high frequency, the workstation is
equipped with an Intel Core i7 or Intel Xeon processor instead of a CORE I CPU like a regular computer.
The workstation is capable of multi-threading, has a high cache, and fast CPU speed of up to 4.0Ghz.
- RAM
44
The workstation's RAM is usually 16GB, has the highest clock speed at the moment, can be upgraded to
a maximum of 4 RAM slots, and speed up image rendering in seconds. And especially the memory has
the function of self-checking and correcting errors ECC Memory that computers usually do not have.
- GraphicsWorkstation GPUs are different from regular PCs. The state machine is equipped with the most
dedicated graphics card. It should be used specifically for graphics applications while conventional
computers are limited in graphics, so they are often used for office applications.
- Hard Drive The workstation's hard drive is designed as a hybrid between HDD, with the highest
rotational speed of 7200rpm, so it is very safe, and the computer's rotation speed usually falls to
5400rpm, very few machines have a speed of 7200rpm. SSD PCle uses the latest technology to provide
fast access speed while ensuring a large capacity for data storage.
- Screen
A high-end anti-glare IPS technology screen is integrated into the machine, with screens from 15.6inch to
17.3inch and Full HD resolution up to 4K. The most accurate color and contrast, the screen has a wider
viewing angle, and the image is not distorted,...
Figure1- 41 Define Workstation Hardware
2.Define networking software

Networking software is applications that help you connect computers to each other, VPN connections,
firewall software, or IP changing software. Some typical network software include: TeamViewer,
Connectify Hotspot, Hamachi or Hotspot Shield Free VPN...
45
Figure1- 42 Software
3.Discuss and explain the interdepencies of workstation hardware with networking software. Derive
an example form your discussion
A network is formed when more than one computer is joined together for communication. There are
additional servers in a network that provide many data storage sites. For servers to handle so many
computers, an operating system is necessary. When a laptop submits an internet request to a server,
many scheduling algorithms decide which request receives which resource. That is how a piece of
software communicates with the hardware of a workstation.
A network is more capable than a single computer designed for individual use. Because they are PCs
with their software and storage, they may be used independently of the mainframe.
A network interface card (NIC) is a piece of computer hardware that enables computers to connect to a
network, most often a local area network.
A network interface card is a piece of computer hardware that allows computers to connect to a
network, most often a local area network.

1.Compare LAN, CAN, MAN, WAN
Networking allows computers to connect and communicate with others through any medium. LAN,
MAN, and WAN are three types of networks designed to work over the area they cover. There are
some similarities and differences between them.
One of the significant differences is in the geographical area they cover. The LAN covers the
smallest area; MAN has a larger area than LAN and WAN has the largest range.
In addition, LANs depend on their own communication hardware and devices to transmit signals. In
contrast, this cannot happen in the case of MAN and WAN, 2 networks that are required to use
shared, private or leased communication hardware.

4.Compare TCP between UDP

As we know, both TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) are the most
widely used Internet protocols.
Among them, TCP is a connection-oriented protocol. That is, once a connection is established, data can
be sent bidirectionally. Meanwhile, UDP is a simpler connectionless Internet protocol. Many messages
are sent as packet in chunks using UDP. On the basis of the characteristics and properties of the two
protocols, we can distinguish between UDP and TCP.
