Network Peripherals
◦ A network peripheral refers to equipment which typically enables
computers to communicate each others.
◦ Network hubs are best suited for small, simple local area
network environments.
Switch
◦ The Switch is a network device that is used to segment the networks
into different subnetworks called subnets or LAN segments.
◦ Switches have many ports, and when data arrives at any port, the
destination address is examined first and some checks are also done
and then it is processed to the devices.
Repeater
◦ The modem translates the data from your ISP into a format that your home
network devices can use
Network Interface Cards (NICs)
◦ NICs come in all shapes and sizes, and they come in prices to suit all
budgets.
◦ There are different levels of security, such as read, modify, full control
etc.
Cont.…
Full control permissions include:
◦ Read
◦ Write
◦ execute
◦ delete
◦ change permissions

Sharing Network resources
◦ Sharing allows an object to be accessed from network. By default in
windows 10, there are some hidden shares, these shares end with a $
symbol.
◦ To view these default shares open computer management (right click on
my computer and choose manage) and select shared folders and then
shares.
◦ Most devices support access control lists. Example: printers, sharing data
using folders, and manage devices, etc
IP Networking Basics
◦ IP addresses are classified into two main types based on version: IPv4
(Internet Protocol version 4) and IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6).
◦ These types differ in their format and the number of bits used to
represent addresses.
IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4)
◦ Format: IPv4 addresses are 32-bit numerical labels, typically
represented in dotted-decimal format (e.g., 192.168.0.1).
◦ Address Space: Provides approximately 4.3 billion unique addresses.
◦ Notation: Consists of four octets separated by periods (e.g.,
192.168.0.1).
◦ Common Usage: Still widely used in most networks today.
◦ Example: 192.168.1.1
IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6)
◦ Format: IPv6 addresses are 128-bit hexadecimal numbers, separated
by colons (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334).
◦ Example: 2001:0db8::1
IP address class
Class A:
◦ Range: 1.0.0.0 to 126.0.0.0
◦ Network ID: The first octet represents the network ID, and the
remaining three octets are used for host addresses.
◦ Example: 10.0.0.1
IP address class…..
Class B:
◦ Range: 128.0.0.0 to 191.255.0.0
◦ Network ID: The first two octets represent the network ID, and the
remaining two octets are used for host addresses.
◦ Example: 172.16.0.1
IP address class…..
Class C:
◦ Range: 192.0.0.0 to 223.255.255.0
◦ Network ID: The first three octets represent the network ID, and
the last octet is used for host addresses.
◦ Example: 192.168.0.1
IP address class…..
Class D:
◦ Range: 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255
◦ Purpose: Class D addresses are reserved for multicast groups, which
are used for one-to-many communication.
IP address class…..
Class E:
◦ Range: 240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.254
◦ Purpose: Class E addresses are reserved for experimental or future
use and are not used in general networking.
Class Network Portion Hosts Allowed
A from 1.0 to 127.0 approx. 16 million
B 255.255.0.0
C 255.255.255.0
