 What’s In
Now, let’s first review your previous lessons when you were still in Grade 11 Senior High
School About Setting Up Computer Networks (COC2). Use separate sheet of paper.

1. What are the examples of network media?

2. Give the two wiring standards for RJ45.

3. Give the two most commonly used network cable.

computer servers. Now prepare to set yourself in reading, understanding, finding and
answering this module. Always write your answers on a separate piece of paper.

What’s New

NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM

The term network operating system is used to refer to two rather different concepts:

• A specialized operating system for a network device such as a router, switch or

firewall.

• An operating system oriented to computer networking, to allow shared file and

printer access among multiple computers in a network, to enable the sharing of
data, users, groups, security, applications, and other networking functions.
Typically, over a local area network (LAN), or private network. This sense is now
largely historical; as common operating systems generally now have such features
included.
TYPES OF NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM

1. Peer-to-peer network
In a peer-to-peer network operating system
users are allowed to share resources and files
located on their computers and access shared
resources from others. This system is not based with
having a file server or centralized management
source. A peer-to-peer network sets all
connected computers equal; they all share the
same abilities to use resources available on the
network.

The advantages include:

• Ease of setup
• Less hardware needed, no server need be acquired
The disadvantages include:

• No central location for storage

• Less security than the client–server model
•
2. Client/Server Network
Network operating systems can be based on a client–server model (architecture) in which
a server enables multiple clients to share resources. Client-server network operating
systems allow networks to centralize functions and applications in one or more dedicated
file servers. The server is the center of the system, allowing access to resources and
instituting security.

The advantages include:

• Centralized servers are more stable.

• Security is provided through the server.
• New technology and hardware can be easily integrated into the system.
• Hardware and the operating system can be specialized, with a focus on performance.
• Servers are able to be accessed remotely from different locations and types of systems.
The disadvantages include:

• Buying and running a server raises costs.

• Dependence on a central location for operation.
• Requires regular maintenance and updates.
