Networks issues and communication


• Security issues regarding data transfer
• Network communication
What is computer
network? Workstation

A network is two or more


computers, or other electronic
devices, connected together so
that they can exchange data.
Internet Router Switch

For example a network allows:


• Computers to share files
• Users to message each other
• Share Resources Wireless
Access
Bridge
Point
Network connections between
computers are typically created
using cables (wires) or via Cables
Wireless
wireless signals. Switch
Network Devices
Modems
Modulator demodulator is a device
that converts a computer’s digital
signal into an analogue signal for
transmission over an existing
telephone line or vice versa.

Modems are essentially used to


allow computers to connect to
networks (internet) over long
distances using the existing
telephone networks.
Network Devices
Router
Router enable data packets
(group of data that being
transmitted) to be routed
between the different networks,
for example to join a LAN to a
wide area network.
Packet data contain information:
a. Header to identify packet data
b. Sender’s IP Address
c. Receiver’s IP Address
d. Message
e. Identity number
Network Devices
Hub
Hubs are hardware devices that
can have a number of devices or
computers connected to them.

It main task is to take any data


packet received at one of its ports
and broadcast it to every
computer in the network.
Network Devices
Switches
Switches are similar to hubs but are
much more efficient in the way that
they distribute data packets.
As with hubs, they connect a number
of devices or computers together to
form a LAN.

Unlike a hub, the switch checks the


data packet received and works out
its destination address and sends the
data to the appropriate computer(s)
only.
Network Devices
Bridge
Bridges are devices that
connect one LAN to
another LAN that uses
same protocol
(communication rules).

They are often used to


connect together different
parts of a LAN so that they
can function as a single
LAN.
Network Devices

Network Interface Card


Network Interface Card (NIC) allows
you to connect a device to the
network.
The NIC will contain the MAC address
which will be used to identify the
computer to the network.
Internet Protocol (IP) & Media Access Control (MAC)
IP address is a unique identifier set up by
network manager/ ISP.

MAC address is usually hard coded by


manufacturer which means it never changes.
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology makes it possible to connect devices
with a wireless connection to a network or to a single computer .

• Reduced cost of cabling/Safer – won’t trip over wires


• Easier to connect other devices to the network
• Makes the computer portable as long as it’s within range

• Limited area of network


• Strength of signal is weaker
• Possible slow data transfer speeds
• Easier to hack into/less secure
• Physical obstacles can interfere with signal/can cause disconnection
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a wireless networking technology designed for very short-range
connections.

• Connecting wireless devices such as mouse, phone, headset to a computer


which are close in proximity.
• Transferring files between devices.
• Printing Wirelessly from a Tablet or Mobile Phone.

• Very slow data transfer speeds


• Short distance of coverage/limited signal strength
• Greater risk of interception of data/less secure
• Supports a limited number of devices in a network
I am the vine; you are the
branches. If you remain
in me and I in you, you
will bear much fruit;
apart from me you can
do nothing.
John 15:5 NIV
