I.Identification: Identify the following. 1. It is simply two or more computers that are linked together. network 2.

A network that spans a small area such as a building or an office. lan 3. The coordination by which devices in the network are arranged in their logical relations to one another, independent of physical arrangement. Network topology 4. Describes the way in which a network transmits information from network/computer to another and not the way the network looks or how it is laid out. Logical topology 5. Each network host is connected to a central hub. In contrast to the bus topology, the star topology connects each node to the hub with a point-to-point connection. Star topology 6. The way that the signals act on the network media, or the way that the data passes through the network from one device to the next without regard to the physical interconnection of the devices. Logical topology 7. a combination of any two or more topologies in such a way that the resulting network does not exhibit one of the standard topologies. Hybrid topology 8. Is a network that connects computers and devices in a limited geographical area such as home, school, computer laboratory, office building, or closely positioned group of buildings. lan 9. is a computer network that covers a large geographic area such as a city, country, or spans even intercontinental distances, using a communications channel that combines many types of media such as telephone lines, cables, and air waves.Wan 10. Is a material substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) that can propagate energy waves. transmission medium 11. Is a set of rules that governs the communications between computers on a network. protocol 12. Consists of the basic hardware transmission technologies of a network. It is a fundamental layer underlying the logical data structures of the higher level functions in a network. Physical layer

13. Is a collection of computers and devices interconnected by communications channels that facilitate communications and allows sharing of resources and information among interconnected devices. Computer network 14. Is a piece of computer hardware designed to allow computers to physically access a networking medium. It provides a low-level addressing system through the use of MAC addresses. nic 15. Act as both client & server . peer to peer connection
