- 1NetworkA group of devices connected through a topology; bus, ring, star and mesh.
- 2TopologiesThe way of which the network is connected, there are four types.
- 3WAN/LANWAN is Wide Area Network, this is over a large arealike a country,
LAN is Local Area Network, this is over a small area like a school. - 4IP AddressesInternet protocol addresses, these are unique values given to each individual computer, this helps other devices send data to a specific device.
- 5Ring TopologyWhen the network is connected in a ring, each computer to two others, this means no chance of catastrophic failure or but a high chance of collisions.
- 6Star TopologyWhen the network is connected to one central switch, if this breaks, so does the whole network, although there is zero chance of collisions, each device has a separate wire.
- 7Bus TopologyWhen the network is connected in one line, back and forth, this means high chance of collisions and catastrophic failure.
- 8Mesh TopologyWhen there are multiple random wires connecting each device with multiple routes for a more efficient and safe data transfer.
- 9PacketsThese are small clumps of data from one main source, once it reaches its elected IP address it pieces the packets back together.
- 10The InternetThis is one huge WAN, travelling globally and transmitting data to many devices, there are so many devices, each individual network has one external IP address and each device inside the network has an internal one.
