Study Notes
Wireless Networking Basics
- Two methods for connecting computers to a network: wired and wireless
- Wired connection uses LAN/UTP cables
- Wireless connection transmits data through electromagnetic waves
Frequency Spectrum
- Earth is surrounded by electromagnetic fields (EMF)
- Wave characteristics vary with force (lower force = lower frequency waves, higher force = higher frequency waves)
- WLANs use the radio spectrum, specifically 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Bands
- 2.4 GHz band uses 802.11 standard
- Channel separation and interchannel interference is important in 2.4 GHz
- 5 GHz band uses 802.11a standard
- Non-overlapping channels are present
Securing Wireless Networks
- Wireless data is vulnerable to interception by rogue devices
- Security is achieved through authentication, encryption, and data integrity
Authentication
- 3-stage authentication process: challenge, response, validation
- Common authentication methods include 802.1x authentication process and 802.11 standard authentication methods
Encryption
- Encryption methods, like TKIP, RC4 cipher, Michael algorithm, CCMP, AES, CBC-MAC, GCMP, and GMAC, are used to protect data
- WPA uses TKIP, WPA2 uses CCMP, and WPA3 uses GCMP
Implementing a Wireless Network
- Wireless network uses radio frequencies for connections between nodes
- Wireless Access Point (WAP) allows wireless-capable devices to connect to a wired network
Wireless Network Planning
- Process of strategizing and architecting a wireless network design that provides adequate coverage, security, and capacity
Wireless Network Implementation
- Necessary equipment includes a wireless router (used to broadcast the Wi-Fi signal) and an Ethernet cable to connect the router to a modem
- Implementation steps include: physical setup, connection of router, and placement
Infrared and Bluetooth
- Bluetooth allows short-range wireless communication between devices
- Used in various personal electronic devices (keyboards, headsets, computers, etc.)
- Infrared uses radiation with longer wavelengths than visible light, but shorter than microwaves
- Used for remote controls and some other applications
Remote Connectivity Concepts
- Remote connectivity is the ability of devices to connect remotely through internet or local networks
- The telephone system is a primary example of remote connectivity, enabling communication between different locations
- Protocols like Frame Relay, ATM, RAS, and PSTN are examples of remote connectivity technologies
- Modem types, including external, internal, and multiline rack, are used for connecting to these networks
- ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) provides various channels and services for these networks
Remote Connectivity Methods
- Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is used for remote access to Windows-based systems
- Virtual Network Computing (VNC) and SSH are alternatives to RDP
- Cloud-based remote desktop services are also available
5G and Beyond
- 5G offers ultra-fast speeds and low latency
- Massive IoT applications are enabled by this technology
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML)
- AI and ML play a role in customer service and fraud detection in telecommunications
Internet of Things (IoT)
- Advancement in interconnected devices, smart homes, and cities are present under the IoT category
Cloud Computing
- Cloud computing facilitates scalability and flexibility
Terminal Service
- Integrated into Windows operating system, providing terminal access to different systems
- Terminal Services history includes mainframe era, PC revolution, and entry into Microsoft products like NT 3.51, NT 4.0, 2000, 2003, 2008, and Windows-based terminal (WBT)
Dial-up Networking
- Connects to the internet via a standard telephone line
VPN (Virtual Private Network)
- Network that uses public networks but creates a protected network connection for devices, encrypting the data
- Provides secure remote access and provides protection during data transmission
Security Protocols
- Various security protocols are used to secure network communication including IPSec, Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP), WireGuard, OpenVPN, Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)
