Study Notes
Network Communication Concepts
- CO 2: Apply network hardware components to establish network communication.
- Week 4-5 ULOs: Troubleshoot simple network problems using TCP/IP commands and create LAN cables (straight-through and crossover).
Metalanguage
- TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol; a standard protocol for digital computers to communicate over long distances.
- OS Utilities: Software in the operating system that coordinates hardware and software operations.
- Network and Internet Utilities: Tools to check network status, change settings, and configure internet connections.
Essential Knowledge
- Understanding Operating System utilities and TCP/IP commands is crucial for troubleshooting network problems.
- Online resources (e.g., BB LMS, ebrary, UM LIC portal) provide further learning materials.
OS Utilities
- Software that coordinates computer hardware and software activities.
- Manages and controls computer resources.
- Includes Device Manager for viewing and managing hardware devices.
System and Security
- Allows reviewing computer status, resolving issues.
- Includes firewall monitoring, RAM/processor checks, device manager, updates, backups, BitLocker, and administrative tools.
Network & Internet
- Tools for checking network status, modifying settings, sharing files/computers, and configuring internet connections.
- Protects the system from malicious software and enables network reconfiguration.
TCP/IP Commands
- System commands for network analysis and troubleshooting.
- IPConfig: Displays network adapter configuration (includes important information like IP address).
- Ping: Tests connectivity to hosts (checks if a host exists on the network and returns data about response time).
- arp: Displays the MAC address-to-IP address mapping.
- Netstat: Displays network connections (numerical form).
- Tracert: Shows the path to a destination on a network (measured in hops).
- Nslookup: Finds the IP address or domain name of a given host.
Example of TCP/IP Commands
-
ipconfig /all: Displays complete network configuration. -
/renew: Renews IPv4/IPv6 address. -
/release: Releases/deletes IPv4/IPv6 address. -
/flushdns: Purges the DNS resolver cache. -
/displaydns: Displays DNS resolver cache contents.
Quiz/Lab Activity Scenarios
- Scenario 1: Troubleshooting file sharing between laptops (check file and printer sharing settings).
- Scenario 2: Checking internet connection issues (perform troubleshooting using TCP/IP commands).
- Scenario 3: Checking network connectivity (use TCP/IP commands).
- Scenario 4: Avoiding risks to the computer system from virus-containing downloaded files (avoid accessing malicious websites).
- Scenario 5: Checking response time and hops when accessing a website (use TCP/IP commands).
