10. The Internet What Is It?
The Internet is a global collection of networks big and small
These networks connect together in many different ways to form the single entity known as the Internet
Since its beginning in 1969, the Internet has grown from four host computer systems to tens of millions
The Internet is public and monitored and maintained in many different ways
The Internet Society, a non-profit group established in 1992, oversees the formations of the polices and protocols that define how we use and interact with the Internet

11. How Reliable is IP Communications?
IP communications are very reliable
IP communications can occur over the Internet or over a WAN
Communications over a WAN are as reliable as the network
When communicating over the Internet multiple paths are available from the transmitting point to the receiving point

12. Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data
There are many different broadband technologies that allow us to transmit IP data from one location to another using the Internet and the methods and means are increasing as is the speed that the data can be transferred. Here are some methods.
Cable:

13. Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data
xDSL:
ADSL works by splitting the phone line into two frequency ranges. The frequencies below 4kHz are reserved for voice, and the range above that is used for data

14. Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data
Two-Way Satellite:
A signal is sent from a dish mounted at your site to a satellite in orbit around the Earth this is then bounced down to a ground station connected to the Internet.

15. Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data
Microwave:
A signal is sent from an antenna mounted at your site to an antenna located at the provider site which is connected to the Internet. Microwave requires a direct line of site.

16. Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data
WiMax / Wi-Fi:

17. IP Protocols UDP vs. TCP What is the difference?
UDP: User Datagram Protocol
Connectionless
Delivery guaranteed by the application
Less bandwidth
Requires NAT/PAT support
TCP: Transmission Control Protocol
Connection oriented
Delivery guaranteed by the network
Higher bandwidth
Requires NAT to establish connection

18. Connectionless: What is the difference?
IP Protocols UDP vs. TCP
Connectionless: What is the difference?
UDP
Single data packets
Denial Of Service Attacks not affected
Support more accounts

21. Hubs Versus Switches Versus Routers
Hub – A Hub is a retransmission device. When a data packet is presented to a hub it is retransmitted to all other connected devices. Because the data packet is retransmitted to all ports the total available bandwidth is shared between all devices.
Switch – A Switch is similar to a hub except a switch has circuitry and software that allows the switch to “learn” and remember all devices connected to it. When a data packet is presented to it, the switch will know which physical port to retransmit the data to. This allows for a greater bandwidth to be achieved.
Router – A Router or Gateway allows multiple networks to be connected together. Routers are programmable, can provide firewall protection, and Network Address Translation (NAT). Data between local computers are kept internal by examining the Subnet Mask address of each device .

22. Configuration of Routers
Port Forwarding – Port Forwarding allows a user to take one or more specific ports that a device uses to talk and only allows traffic to be sent to one specific IP address. This allows an external data packet to be sent to one specific device without affecting the security of the overall network.
