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.
