Aim: - Observe identify and know the use of Network Features.

Main benefits of networks include:

 File sharing – you can easily share data between different users, or access it remotely if you
keep it on other connected devices.
 Resource sharing – using network-connected peripheral devices like printers, scanners and
copiers, or sharing software between multiple users, saves money.
 Sharing a single internet connection – it is cost-efficient and can help protect your systems
if you properly secure the network.
 Increasing storage capacity – you can access files and multimedia, such as images and
music, which you store remotely on other machines or network-attached storage devices.

Computer networking has become one of the most successful ways of sharing
information, where all computers are wirelessly linked together by a common network. Now,
businesses and organizations heavily rely on it to get messages and information across to
essential channels. Not only has that it benefited establishments, but also individuals, as they
also need to share important information every day. But no matter how useful computer
networking is, it does not come without drawbacks. Here are its advantages and
disadvantages:

List of Advantages of Computer Networking

1. It enhances communication and availability of information.


Networking, especially with full access to the web, allows ways of communication
that would simply be impossible before it was developed. Instant messaging can now
allow users to talk in real time and send files to other people wherever they are in the
world, which is a huge boon for businesses. Also, it allows access to a vast amount of
useful information, including traditional reference materials and timely facts, such as
news and current events.

2. It allows for more convenient resource sharing.


This benefit is very important, particularly for larger companies that really need to
produce huge numbers of resources to be shared to all the people. Since the
technology involves computer-based work, it is assured that the resources they wanted
to get across would be completely shared by connecting to a computer network which
their audience is also using.

3. It makes file sharing easier.


Computer networking allows easier accessibility for people to share their files, which
greatly helps them with saving more time and effort, since they could do file sharing
more accordingly and effectively.

4. It is highly flexible.
This technology is known to be very flexible, as it gives users the opportunity to
explore everything about essential things, such as software without affecting their
functionality. Plus, people will have the accessibility to all information they need to
get and share.
5. It is an inexpensive system.
Installing networking software on your device would not cost too much, as you are
assured that it lasts and can effectively share information to your peers. Also, there is
no need to change the software regularly, as mostly it is not required to do so.

6. It increases cost efficiency.


With computer networking, you can use a lot of software products available on the
market which can just be stored or installed in your system or server, and can then be
used by various workstations.

7. It boosts storage capacity.


Since you are going to share information, files and resources to other people, you
have to ensure all data and content are properly stored in the system. With this
networking technology, you can do all of this without any hassle, while having all the
space you need for storage.
