Study Notes
- Network server software allows a computer to share its resources and field resource requests from network clients.
- Network client software is found in applications like web browsers and email programs, enabling requests to be sent to servers.
- Protocols are necessary for communication between clients and servers, defining rules and formats for data transmission.
- An example of a network protocol is TCP/IP, which facilitates communication between computers on a network.
- Hands-On Project 1-2 involves upgrading a standalone computer to a networked one by installing a NIC and connecting it to an interconnecting device using a cable.
