Class 8 Revision Assignment-NETWORKING

This document provides a revision assignment for Computer Science class 8. It contains questions about network topologies like star, mesh, ring and tree. It asks students to define protocol, describe functions of a hub/switch, and the purpose of a modem. Other questions differentiate between intranet and extranet, star and ring topologies. Students are asked to describe the functions of servers, WAPs and characteristics of WANs. Questions also cover client-server architecture, suitable topologies for connecting computers, advantages of networking, network security, and applications of LANs and WANs.
