    Study Notes

    Operating System Fundamentals

    • The Kernel is the core component of a PC operating system, managing hardware resources and providing services to applications.

    User Interfaces

    • A Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows interaction with a system using graphical icons, menus, and windows.

    Network Devices

    • Network devices are typically accessed through a Command-Line Interface (CLI) instead of a GUI because CLI provides more flexibility, precision, and speed for complex network configurations and troubleshooting.

    Purpose of an Operating System

    • The primary purpose of a PC operating system is to manage hardware resources, allocate system resources, and provide common services to applications.

    Network Management

    • A Console in network management is a central location from which network administrators can monitor, configure, and troubleshoot network devices, providing a unified view of the network infrastructure.
