“A network is two devices connected to each other with a physical medium, such as wire or radio signals.’’

Networks allow many users to access shared data and programs almost instantly. When data and Programs are stored on a network and are shared, individual users can substantially reduce the need for programs on their own computers .Networks open up new ways to communicate, such as e-mail and instant messaging .By allowing users to share expensive hardware resources such as printers, networks reduce the cost of running an organization.

Host:-

A host can be any device that has an IP address.

Address:-

An address is used to send and receive data in network.

IP address:-

ICT(CS-161) 2016

It helps to identify devices and the networks where they are located.

Central Connecting Device:-

Hub, switches, routers act as central connecting device.

Central connecting devices are responsible for connecting host and transmitting data.

Hub Function:-

Hosts send data to a hub. The hub broadcasts that data to all other connected hosts on the network.

Switch Function:-

Hosts send data to a switch. The switches transmit data to its destination. Switches can send and receive data simultaneously. Switches are most commonly used for networks.

Router Function:-

Routers are at the edge of the LANs. They act as gateway to other networks. It allows communication between hosts on different networks. It connects internal networks to the internet.

Connection of devices:-

Computers have network adapters called as Network interface card (NICs). It allows the computers to connect to network. It connects node to the media. It often has an antenna.

A Hub or switch connects several devices in a network together. It provides central point for cables in network. A Router connects multiple computers or other routers together and transmits data to its correct destination on a network.

Data Transferring:-

Before data transferred, it has to go through the following processes:

Large chunks of data broken into segments. Addressing is added to each segment, to making it a packet. Packets then travel to the network adapter, where a little more information is added and

they become Ethernet Frames. Each frame is then broken into a data stream of bits-0s and 1s- that travel on physical

media.

Data Transfer on LANs:-

It transfer one bit at a time. In LANs, data can travel in a single stream in both directions. A data transfer rate is the maximum bits per second (bps) that can be transmitted over a network.

Types of Networks:-

Wired LANs (WLANs)

Wireless LANs (WLANs) Virtual LANs (VLANs)

Wired LANs (WLANs):-

Hosts such as PCs or laptops are connected to central connecting devices by copper based and

twisted pair cabling. Control and security, reliability and speed are the primary benefits of using

physical connections. It is also relatively cost-effective, as the price of cabling. One great

advantage of having a Wired LAN is the control it provides.

Wireless LANs (WLANs):-

Hosts connected to networks through WAPs. To connect to WAPs, a device must have a wireless

network adapter. In larger WLANs, the WAP has to connect to a wired switch.

Wireless local area networks (WLANs) are the same as the traditional LAN but they have a

wireless interface. WLANs provide high speed data communication in small areas such as a

building or an office. It allows users to move around in a confined area while they are still

connected to the network. Examples of wireless LAN that are available today are NCR's wave

LAN and Motorola's ALTAIR.

Virtual LANs :-

VLANs allow a network manager to logically segment a LAN into different broadcast.

Workstations do not have to be physically located together in VALNs. Users on different floors

of the same building, or even in different buildings can now belong to the same LAN.VLANs

also allow broadcasts to be defined without using routers. Bridging software is used instead to

define which workstations are to be included in the broadcast. Routers would only have to be

used to communicate between two VLANs.

Network Topology :-

ICT(CS-161) 2016

“The logical layout of the cables and devices that connect the nodes of the network”

Logical topology :-

In Logical topology, there is actual transfer of the data in the network as per its design

plan.

Physical topology:-

In Physical topology, the physical design of a network which consists of location,

devices and the cable installation is referred.

Packets :-

Data moves through the network in a structure called Packets.

Packet Header :-

The heard identifies the nodes that sent the packet and provides the address of the node

that will receive the packet. It also holds control data that helps the receiving node resemble a

message’s packet in the right order.

Packet Payload :-

The Payload is the actual data that is being transmitted between the two nodes.

Importance of Topology:-

A correctly designed network will move data packets as efficiently as possible.

Network topology plays a role in preventing collision.

Star Topology:-

7

Page 8: Super final-report

ICT(CS-161) 2016

The Star Topology is the most common topology. In a star network, all nodes are connected to a

device called a Hub and communicate through it. Data packets travel through the Hub and are

sent to the attached nodes. After reaching to their destinations, some intelligent Hubs can

monitor traffic and help prevent the collisions.

In Star Topology, a broken connection between a Node and the Hub does not affect the

rest of the network. If the Hub is lost, all nodes connected to that Hub are unable to communicate

How Data is Transferred using Star :-

Equipment :-

PTCL A-DSL + Wi-Fi Modem (As HUB)

Ethernet Cables (As Connecting Wires)

Laptops (As Nodes)

Procedure :-

So, for Connecting Computers in form of Star Topology. Firstly we have to change the

Settings of our Computers using following steps.

Connect Computers with the HUB.

Open Network and Sharing Center.

Click on “Change Advance Sharing Option”.

Change the Setting As shown in pictures by checking these Check Boxes.

ICT(CS-161) 2016

After doing all these open “Networks”. Then you are able to see the connected Computers.

Open the Computer you want to access.

Page 12: Super final-report

ICT(CS-161) 2016

Firstly you can only see those Folder which are shared by the other computer. In start only Public folder is Assessable.

You can give access to any folder by following ways.

12

Page 13: Super final-report

ICT(CS-161) 2016

By doing this we can share this folder also.

You can also access the data of that folder.

For Troubleshooting.

Cross Cable:-

An Ethernet Crossover Cable is a type of Ethernet Cable which is use to connect two computing devices together directly. It is most often used to connect two devices of same type: e.g. two computers (via Network Interface Controller) or two switches to each other.

Page 15: Super final-report

ICT(CS-161) 2016

How Cross Cable is different to Ethernet:-

Only the arrangement in the both end are different.

How Data is Transferred using Cross Cable :-

Troubleshooting:-

One of the main problems with the BUS TOPOLOGY is that it is not very fault tolerant, a break or defect in the bus would affect the whole network. In STAR TOPOLOGY, as each computer is connected to a central device (Hub) the location of the Hub must be made as central as possible, so as to reduce cable lengths. The drawback to this type of topology is if a central device was to fail then all computers connected to that device would not be able to see the network.
