Computer Networks

Introduction to Computer Networks

A computer network is a system of interconnected devices that communicate using networking


protocols.

The OSI model has seven layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation,
and Application.

TCP/IP model includes protocols like HTTP, FTP, SMTP, and DNS.

Network security measures include firewalls, VPNs, and encryption techniques.

Wireless networking technologies include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 5G.

IP addressing: IPv4 vs IPv6 and subnetting concepts.

Routing algorithms like Distance Vector and Link State Routing.

Network topologies include Star, Mesh, Ring, and Bus.

DNS translates domain names to IP addresses.

Load balancers distribute network traffic efficiently.

Packet switching vs Circuit switching in data transmission.

Common attacks: Denial-of-Service (DoS), Phishing, and Man-in-the-Middle attacks.
