COMPUTER NETWORKS: A computer networks is a communication system connecting two or more computers that work together to exchange information & share resources. A network may consist of microcomputers or it may integrate microcomputers or other devices with large computer. Networks can be controlled by all nodes co-ordinarily & supply all resource. These networks differ in geographical size. There are three important types of networks. 1. Local Area Network 2. Metropolitan Area Network 3. Wide

Hierarchical Star Many home networks use the star topology. A star network features a central connection point called a "hub" that may be a hub‚ switch or router. Devices usually connect to the hub with Unshielded Twisted Pair Strengths Easy to Install‚ Flexible IF single device or cable failure will not bring down the network Weakness If the centralize device fails the entire system is affected Bus Bus is the simplest network topology. All computers are connected to a single cable that

in terms of the core elements of essential network services. The basic difference between a wired and a wireless network is self-explanatory. A wired network uses wires to communicate whereas a wireless network uses radio waves. Another difference and how one technology gets an edge over the other. Wired networks are easy to set up and troubleshoot where wireless networks are comparatively difficult to set up‚ maintain‚ and troubleshoot. Wired networks make you immobile while wireless ones provide

Introduction Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are dynamically self-organized and self-configured‚ with the nodes in the network automatically establishing an ad hoc network and maintaining the mesh connectivity. WMNs are comprised of two types of nodes: mesh routers and mesh clients. Other than the routing capability for gateway/bridge functions as in a conventional wireless router‚ a mesh router contains additional routing functions to support mesh networking. Through multi-hop communications
