Introduction Network architecture is a combination of topology and protocols. In this paper‚ I will discuss topology‚ which is the defined as the shape of a network or how a network is laid out. Topology also consists of how the different components or nodes of a network are connected and how they communicate with each other. Topologies are either logical or physical. In addition‚ in the sections of this paper‚ I will compare and contrast some different conventional architecture and what types of

CHAPTER TWO NETWORKING SYSTEMS AND LOCAL AREA NETWORKS (LAN) A network is a system of two or more computers that are connected in some manner. Each computer on the network has access to the files and peripheral equipment (such as printers or modems) on all the other computers on the network. The origin of local area networks can be traced‚ in part‚ to IBM terminal equipment introduced in 1974. At that time‚ IBM introduced a series of terminal devices designed for use in transaction-processing

INTRODUCTION In today’s modern world computer networks are the basic source of information exchange for all types of businesses. Different technologies are used within the context of networking depending on the requirements of an organization. Ethernet is off course the best technology for the “local area network” (LAN)‚ but when the organization spread their business to much longer distances (cities) then WAN technologies need to be deployed to keep the business running. The selection of an appropriate

UMUC’s new building in Adelphi‚ MD will have to provide networking connectivity to students‚ professors‚ and staff. In order to begin the process of planning the new network‚ we will begin by planning the network IP addressing scheme. It is very important that the network IP addressing scheme be clearly defined in order for IT administrators to locate computers promptly. Also‚ in order to make it easier for the administrators‚ DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) will be used to assign

When a packet arrives at one port‚ it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets. Networking Devices ... Multistation Access Unit (MAU) - a hub or concentrator that connects a group of computers (’nodes’ in network terminology) to a token ring local area network. Networking Devices ... Bridges - used to join two network segments
