TCP/IP Networking - Routing and TCP/IP

The initial design goal of TCP/IP was to provide an internetworking architecture. With many networks TCP/IP gateways become involved. A TCP/IP gateway is equivalent to an OSI router and so in this handout TCP/IP gateways are referred to as routers.

TCP/IP Networking - Using TCP/IP

This tutorial goes through the process of Using TCP/IP.

TCP/IP Networking - IP Addressing

All hosts on a TCP/IP internet must be able to talk to each other. To allow this a unique address is needed for each and every host on the network.

TCP/IP Networking - What is TCP/IP?

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. TCP/IP is a piece of networking software.

Network+ Certification - Data Security

The security of data within a computer system is of fundamental importance. It is critical, therefore, that a data security plan is devised which ensures that the maximum resilience against data loss is achieved.

Network+ Certification - Installing the Network

This tutorial covers the basic tasks for installing Microsoft NT Server version 4.0 on a File Server.

Network+ Certification - Network Clients

In a conventional network, there are File Servers and Workstations. The File Server(s) manage shared resources - files, programs and printers. The workstations can access these resources and thus have an ability to share the network resources.

Network+ Certification - The Communications Channel

The communications channel provides the environment to move electronic information from one point to another. Inevitably, when data is transmitted over a medium there is always a small but measurable loss of signal strength.
