Basic of Computer Network
Analogy – Human Communication
• Person to Person. • Computer to Computer.
• Language – Word and • Protocols – Binary data
grammar. and procedure to send
• Medium – Air. data.
• Share feeling, emotion, • Medium – Wire and Air.
thoughts. • Share files, command,
• Security – Trust, Honest text, picture.
and reliable. • Security - Antivirus,
Firewall, Digital
Certificate.
Design – Computer Network.
• To send a data from one computer to another
computer on network, we require address – IP
Address.
• To reach to a specific IP address, we need to
find a way – Routing.
• To do flow control, error control and
multiplexing, we require procedure – TCP
Protocol.
Building Block of Networks
• Hosts.
• Communication Links.
• Devices – Switch & Router
• IP Address.
• MAC Address.
• Port Address.
• HTTP, FTP and Telnet.
Host
Communication Links
• Transmission medium used for transmission of Data in form
of Packet with particular transmission rate.
Router
• A network device which takes the packet from connected
communication link and forward it based on destination.
Switch
• Connecting multiple hosts.
IP Address
• Version – Ipv4 (32 Bit) and Ipv6 (128 Bit)
• Used to send packet from one computer to
another computer.
• Router uses IP address to find destination.
MAC Address
• 48 Bit Address.
• Unique in World.
• Printed on Ethernet Card.
• Switch uses MAC address to send data on LAN.
Network Port – Process (S/W)
• A network port is a number that identifies one side
of a connection between two computers.
• Computer network use port numbers to determine
to which process or application a message should be
delivered.
ISP
• Internet Service Provider
A Local Area Network (LAN)
Networks: Purpose
• Sharing files
– FTP, NFS, SMB
• Communicating
– E-Mail, instant messaging, games
• Executing programs remotely
– rlogin, telnet
Network Messaging
• Most local area networks use electrostatic
network hardware
– The wires transmit messages using electricity
– The transmission hardware charges the wire
positively or negatively to indicate 1 and 0
respectively
– The reception hardware senses the charge

Network Parameters
• The following are common parameters that need to
be set in a networked computer:
– DNS Servers (e.g. 137.207.32.32)
• The logical (e.g. IP) address of the DNS servers to be used to
resolve domain names
• These can be local (e.g. frankie.csfac8.uwindsor.ca) or remote (e.g.
www.google.ca)
– Host and domain information
• This includes the computer’s name (e.g. elvis) and the domain on
which it resides (e.g. csfac8.uwindsor.ca)
Network Parameters
– Logical address (e.g. IP address: 137.207.132.21)
• This address is required to participate on a WAN, such as the
Internet
– Subnet mask (e.g. 255.255.0.0)
• This is the binary mask that should be used to extract the network
and subnet information from the host’s address
– Default gateway (e.g. 137.207.32.2)
• This is the logical (e.g. IP) address of the router which should
receive the host’s Internet-bound packets
• All of these values would be given to a computer’s
user by a network administrator
