Study Notes
Network Fundamentals
- An intermediary device in a network is a device that connects multiple networks together, allowing data to be forwarded between them.
- A server in a network is primarily responsible for providing resources, services, or applications to clients on the network.
Network Design
- The recommended network design for very small networks is a star topology.
Networking Concepts
- Physical topology diagrams illustrate the physical layout of a network, including the devices and the connections between them.
Network Hardware
- A network interface card (NIC) is a hardware component that allows a device to connect to a network, transmitting and receiving data over a physical or wireless connection.
