LANs and WANs Types of Networks
The two most common types of network infrastructures are:
Local Area Network (LAN)
Wide Area Network (WAN).
Other types of networks include:
Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
Wireless LAN (WLAN)
Storage Area Network (SAN)

Reliable Network Supporting Network Architecture
There are four basic characteristics that the underlying architectures need to address in order to meet user expectations:
Fault Tolerance - Fault tolerance is the property that enables a system to continue operating properly in the event of the failure of (or one or more faults within) some of its components.
Scalability – network able to expand as needed
Quality of Service (QoS) - the overall performance of a telephony or computer network, particularly the performance seen by the users of the network.
Security – the ability of a system to protect against hacking and security threats.

Reliable Network Providing QoS (Quality of Service)
Examples of priority decisions for an organization might include:
Time-sensitive communication - increase priority for services like telephony or video distribution.
Non time-sensitive communication - decrease priority for web page retrieval or email.
High importance to organization - increase priority for production control or business transaction data.
Undesirable communication - decrease priority or block unwanted activity, like peer-to-peer file sharing or live entertainment.

Network Security Security Threats
The most common external threats to networks include:
1. Viruses, worms, and Trojan horses – softwares that replicate themselves
2. Spyware and adware
3. Zero-day attacks/Zero-hour attacks A zero day vulnerability refers to a hole in software that is unknown to the vendor. This security hole is then exploited by hackers before the vendor becomes aware and hurries to fix it—this exploit is called a zero day attack.

Network Security Security Solutions
Network security components often include:
Antivirus and anti-spyware
Firewall filtering - a firewall is a network security system that monitors and controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.
Dedicated firewall systems
Access control lists (ACL) - a list of access control entries that identify a trustee and specifies the access rights allowed, denied, or audited for that trustee.

Network Security Security Solutions
Network security components often include:
Intrusion prevention systems (IPS) - a network security/threat prevention technology that examines network traffic flows to detect and prevent vulnerability exploits.
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) - extends a private network across a public network or internet. It enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network.

Exploring the Networking Summary
In this chapter, you learned:
Networks and the Internet have changed the way we communicate, learn, work, and even play.
Networks come in all sizes. They can range from simple networks consisting of two computers, to networks connecting millions of devices.
The Internet is the largest network in existence. In fact, the term Internet means a ‘network of networks. The Internet provides the services that enable us to connect and communicate with our families, friends, work, and interests.
The network infrastructure is the platform that supports the network. It provides the stable and reliable channel over which communication can occur. It is made up of network components including end devices, intermediate devices, and network media.

Exploring the Networking Summary (cont.)
In this chapter, you learned:
Networks must be reliable.
Network security is an integral part of computer networking, regardless of whether the network is limited to a home environment with a single connection to the Internet, or as large as a corporation with thousands of users.
The network infrastructure can vary greatly in terms of size, number of users, and number and types of services that are supported on it. The network infrastructure must grow and adjust to support the way the network is used. The routing and switching platform is the foundation of any network infrastructure.

Fault Tolerance - the property that enables a system to continue operating properly in the event of the failure of (or one or more faults within) some of its components.
Scalability – network able to expand as needed
Quality of Service (QoS) - the overall performance of a telephony or computer network, particularly the performance seen by the users of the network.
Security – the ability of a system to protect against hacking and security threats.
