Part I: Basic Networks Concepts Concepts we will seethroughout the book Figure 1-1: Basic Networking Concepts What Is a Network? A network is a transmission system that connects two or more applications running on different computers. Figure 1-1: Basic Networking Concepts Client/Server Applications Most Internet applications are client/server applications Clients receive service from servers The client is often a browser Part II: The Nine Elements of a Network Although the idea of “network”is simple, you must understand the nine elements found in most networks Figure 1-3: Elements of a Network Figure 1-3: Elements of a Network Figure 1-3: Elements of a Network Figure 1-5: Ethernet Switch Operation Figure 1-3: Elements of a Network Figure 1-3: Elements of a Network Figure 1-3: Elements of a Network Figure 1-4: Packet Switching and Multiplexing Network Elements: Recap Name the 9 Elements of Single networks. Without looking back throughyour handout Part III: Transmission Speed Figure 1-6: Transmission Speed Measuring Transmission Speed Measured in bits per second (bps) In metric notation: Increasing factors of 1,000 … Not factors of 1,024 Kilobits per second (kbps)-note the lowercase k Megabits per second (Mbps) Gigabits per second (Gbps) Terabits per second (Tbps) Figure 1-6: Transmission Speed Measuring Transmission Speed What is 23,000 bps in metric notation? What is 3,000,000,000 in metric notation? What is 15,100,000 bps in metric notation? Occasionally measured in bytes per second I
