6Networking Basics2.1: Networking OverviewLecture Focus Questions: Why are protocols important for networking?What are the advantages of a client-server network as compared to a peer-topeer network?What is defined by the logical topology?How does the logical topology differ from the physical topology?Why can a single physical topology support multiple logical topologies?Why is a physical mesh topology normally an impractical solution?Key terms for this section include the following:TermDefinitionInternet ProtocolAn address that identifies the network and host addressaddressassigned to a device.(IP address)The portion of the IP address that identifies the network theSubnet addressdevice is assigned to.A group of computers and associated devices that share aLocal area networkcommon communications line or wireless link, typically to a(LAN)server.Metropolitan areaComputer users and resources within a geographic area thenetworksize of a metropolitan area that are connected.(MAN)A network that connects several LANs. WANs are often limitedWide area networkto a corporation or an organization but are sometimes(WAN)accessible to the public.Software-definedwide area network A WAN that uses software to control connectivity.(SDWAN)Multipoint GenericRoutingA tunnel interface.Encapsulation(mGRE)A collection of many networks owned by many entities thatInternetshare information and communicate together.A local or restricted communications network, especially aIntranetprivate network created using World Wide Web software.Copyright 2021 CompTIA, A , Network , Security , Linux , IT Fundamentals, Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA ), and relatedtrademarks are the trademarks of CompTIA.

7An intranet that can be partially accessed by authorized outsideusers, enabling businesses to exchange information over theinternet securely.The term used to describe how devices are connected and howmessages flow from device to device. The physical topologyTopologydescribes the way the network is wired. The logical topologydescribes the way messages are sent.A device that is connected to absorb signals and prevent themTerminatorfrom reflecting repeatedly back and forth on the cable.Terminators are used with bus topology.This section helps you prepare for the following certification exam objectives:ExamObjective1.2 Explain the characteristics of network topologies andnetwork types.Extranet CompTIA Network N10-0081.2.1 Mesh1.2.2 Star/hub-and-spoke1.2.3 Bus1.2.4 Ring1.2.5 Hybrid1.2.6 Network types and characteristicso Peer-to-peero Client-servero Local area network (LAN)o Metropolitan area network (MAN)o Wide area network (WAN)o Wireless local area network (WLAN)o Personal area network (PAN)o Campus area network (CAN)o Storage area network (SAN)o Software-defined wide area network (SDWAN)o Multipoint generic routing encapsulation(mGRE)Video/DemoTime2.1.1 Introduction to Networking2.1.2 Network Types2.1.3 Networking Terms2.1.5 Network TopologiesTotal Video Time5:179:029:287:0930:56Fact Sheets2.1.4 Networking FactsCopyright 2021 CompTIA, A , Network , Security , Linux , IT Fundamentals, Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA ), and relatedtrademarks are the trademarks of CompTIA.
