Basic Internet Terminologies

This document provides definitions and explanations of basic internet terminology: The internet is a global network connecting millions of computers that allows them to exchange information through communication protocols and cables or wireless mediums. An IP address is a unique numerical label assigned to devices on a network to identify their location. Domain names provide easy-to-remember names for websites that correspond to numeric IP addresses. Modems convert digital signals to analog for data transmission over phone or cable lines. Web browsers allow users to view and navigate websites by sending requests to web servers. Proxies and routers help direct traffic and maintain connections between different networks.

INTERNET
A huge network of computers via which a computer is connected to
another anywhere in the world to exchange all kinds of information.
Its network of networks connected through routers & switches
consisting of millions of private, public, academic, business &
government networks.
For exchange of information, it uses common set of
communication protocols.
Data travels either through high speed, fibre optic cables or
through wireless mediums.

SERVER
•  A server application or that
acts as an intermediary for
requests
from clients seeking
resources from servers that
provide those resources.
•  A proxy server thus
functions on behalf of the
client when requesting
service, potentially masking
the true origin of the request
to the resource server.
