    Study Notes

    Networking Concepts

    • Internet Service Provider (ISP): An organization providing internet connectivity to individuals and businesses.
    • Network Security: Protecting network resources from unauthorized access and use. A technician compromising network security allowed patients to access other patient records.
    • IPv4 Address Setup: Subnet mask designates segments of an IPv4 address on a webserver.
    • TCP/IP Model Layer: The 'Internet layer' is responsible for directing messages throughout an internetwork.
    • Web Client Protocol Decoding: A client receives transmission encoded by the order: Ethernet, IP, TCP, and HTTP to decode the web page.
    • OSI Model and Logical Addresses: A logical address is added during encapsulation at the Network layer of the OSI model.

    Computing Models

    • Client-Server Model: A computing model that has server software running on specialized servers.

    Network Policies

    • Quality of Service (QoS): A policy that gives priority to specific network data flow, especially voice and video traffic.

    Network Types

    • Intranet: A closed network with LANs and WANs owned by a specific entity/organization.
    • Layer 2 Device Information: During layer 2 encapsulation for a PC on an Ethernet network, a physical address is included in the frame header.

    Network Devices and Functions

    • Switch Auto-MDIX: Automatically configures a switch interface for a straight-through or crossover cable connection.
    • Physical Medium Types:
      • Electrical pulses: Copper cable
      • Propagation of light: Fiber-optic cable
    • Router Data Packet Routing: Routers use destination IP addresses to route data packets to their destinations.
    • IPv4 Loopback Address: 127.0.0.1 is used to test the loopback interface (ping command).
    • Subnet Mask Function: The subnet mask defines the network and host components in an IPv4 address.
    • ARP Table Function: The ARP table can store frequently used server MAC addresses in a network.
    • Prefix Notation Subnet Mask: The prefix length notation expresses a subnet mask, for example, 255.255.255.224 translates to /27.

    Network Protocols

    • ICMP: The 'ping' command utilizes ICMP for 'echo-requests and echo-replies'.
    • NAT (Network Address Translation): NAT translates private IP addresses to public ones for internet communication.
    • DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol): Dynamically assigns IP addresses to devices on a network.
    • DNS (Domain Name System): Translates domain names into IP addresses.

    Network Topologies and Concepts

    • Network Connectivity Restrictions: A computer might fail to connect to devices on a different network due to an invalid default gateway.
    • Addressing: MAC addresses are used on local networks and are physical, while IP addresses identify devices on a network and are logical.
    • VLAN Creation: Using vlan 10 creates a VLAN on a Cisco switch.
