01-Configuring Network Connectivity

The document discusses configuring network connectivity by assigning IP addresses and verifying connections. It covers: - IP addresses are made of 32 bits represented in dotted decimal for readability - Subnet masks indicate the network and host portions of an IP address - IP addresses can be static or dynamic via DHCP - Connectivity can be tested using ping and IP settings verified with ipconfig

Connectivity
IP Addressing Structure
Each device on a network must be
uniquely defined with an IP address.
An IP address consists of a string of 32
bits.
In the human network, a string of 32 bits
is difficult to interpret and even more
difficult to remember.
Therefore, we represent IPv4 addresses
using dotted decimal format.
IPv4 Addressing Structure
IPv4 Addressing Structure
IPv4 addresses are expressed as dotted
decimals by separating each byte of the
binary pattern, called an octet, with a dot.

Subnet mask
To know how many bits represent the
network portion and how many bits
represent the host portion, when we
express an IPv4 network address, we add
a Subnet Mask to the IP address.
 The subnet mask consists of 32 bits, just
as the address does, and uses 1s and 0s
to indicate which bits of the address are
network bits and which bits are host bits.
Subnet mask
Another entity that is used to specify
the network portion of an IPv4 address
is called the prefix length.
The prefix length is the number of bits
in the address that gives us the network
portion.
Subnet mask
For example, in 172.16.4.1 /24

 the /24 is the prefix length


Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
It tells us that the first 24 bits are the
network portion.
This leaves the remaining 8 bits, the last
octet, as the host portion.

Type of IP Addresses
In an IPv4 network, the hosts can
communicate in one of three different ways:
• Unicast - the process of sending a packet
from one host to an individual host.
• Multicast - the process of sending a packet
from one host to a selected group of hosts.
• Broadcast - the process of sending a packet
from one host to all hosts in the network.

.
Type of IP Addresses
A broadcast is sent to all hosts on a
specific network. For example, To
communicate with the hosts within the
172.16.4.0 /24 network, the destination
address of the packet would be
172.16.4.255

Assigning IP Address
End user devices can obtain addresses either statically
through an administrator or dynamically through DHCP
Assigning IP Addresses
To configure the IP settings manually in a
Windows 7 ,8 ,10 and server 2012
computers:
1.Open Network And Sharing Center
2.right-click the appropriate network
adapter and, choose Properties
3.choose Internet Protocol Version 4
4.Click the Properties button
5.Provide appropriate configuration
settings

Testing the connectivity
Use ping to verify that a local host can communicate
with a gateway across a local area network
Verifying the IP address
To display only the IP address,
subnet mask and default gateway :

ipconfig
