A network topology that is generally in a line formation‚ which uses several devices that are all connected to a common central cable called a bus and commonly used for LAN’s. Component Description Usually 2 or more desktop of notebook computers with a network interface card. A common printer is shared by all desktops or notebook computers. The server process requests and delivers data to the client computers over the internet or network.

advantages of networking computers together? There are two advantages to networking computers: access to information‚ and access to equipment. 2. Identify one disadvantage of networking computers together. The disadvantages of networking computers are hacking and pirating in the networks is very easy and it can lead to information damage or robbery and also if one compute is affected by a virus it can spread to the other easily. 3. What technology allows computer networks without wires? Wireless

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

Network Design In this paper I will be going over a network design proposal for a building on the UMUC campus in Adelphi‚ Maryland. I would plan to run a fiber optic network to ensure the fastest speeds possible and fiber optics are notorious for not having any signal loss compared to a Cat5e. Using a star topology throughout the building with the servers in each classroom connected to the server room on the respective floor. Equipment used to build the network will consist of servers‚ routers‚ hubs
