General Objective DDESIGN AND BUILD AN ETHRNET PEER-TO-PEER LOCAL AREA NETWORK. Specific Objectives (con’t) Learn the Fundamentals and Ethernet LAN, its physical topology Decide whether to use Ethernet Hubs or Switches in designing/building LANs. Understand the importance of cabling Standards Explain the advantages and disadvantages of the different Ethernet LAN media Describe the TIA/EIA 586A Ethernet LAN cabling standards and illustrate their primary specifications Assemble Ethernet LAN cables such Straight-Through, Cross Over, and Roll- Over cables based on TIE/EIA 586-A standard. Build a practical Small Office peer-to-peer LAN on Win XP platform. Configure the peer-to-peer network and test its functionality. Setup a “residential Gateway” to implement a basic internet café network.. WHY BUILD A COMPUTER NETWORK? 1. Network Interface Card (NIC) - A device that enables a PC or printer to be connected to the network media (cable). -A NIC has a unique physical address embe dded into it by the manufacturer called MAC Address. -This address is to control data communication for the host on the network. Computer Network Classification • Computer networks are generally classified as: -Wide Area Network (WAN) • A networks that covers a large geographical area ( e.g. regional, national and global) -Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) • A network that covers a metropolitan area -Local Area Network (LAN) • A network that covers a certain locality (e.g. school campus, industrial plant compound) Local Area Network (LAN) Devices (con’t) • 2.PC Card -LAN cards used in notebook computers • Note: - NIC’s and LAN Cards must be properly a desktop PC or notebook PC to be able to function properly. Computer Networking Devices (con’t) 5.Switch - Basically a multi-port Bridge having the same basic function. -Classified as “managed” and “ unmanaged” and “unmanaged” switch. • Managed switch are capable of network management and virtual LAN (VLAN) implementation • Unmanaged switch are passive devices and are not capable of network management capabilities. Examples of LAN Switch Implementation Examples of LAN Switch Implementation (con’t) Virtual LAN (VLAN) implementation using manageable switch. Example of LAN Switch Implementation (con’t) Wide Area Network (WAN) Devices 1. Modem (modulator-demodulator) - is a device that provides the computer with connectivity to a telephone line. It converts data from a digital signal to analog signal that is compatible with a standard phone line. The modem at the receiving end demodulates the signal, which converts it back to digital. -Modems maybe Installed internally or attached externally to the computer using a phone line. Wide Area Network (WAN) Devices (con’t) Network Devices Symbles Wide Area Network (WAN) Devices (Con’t) 2. Router - Special Purpose computer whose primary function is to connect networks together forming a WAN. -Routers are the backbone of Internet connectivity. -Routers can be used as LAN devices for “segmentation” purposes of large LANs to enhance their efficiency. Network Protocols How does computers and other network devices talk to each other? • Computers use Protocols to communicate. • Protocols control all aspects of data communication, which include the following: -How the physical network is built -How computers connect to the network -How data is formatted for transmission -How that data is sent -How to deal with errors • The most widely used protocol suites is the TCP/IP (Transmissions Control protocol/Internet protocol) Ethernet LANs Typical small office/Home office LAN • The most widely used LAN technology. • Standard 100 Mbps bandwidth. • Most common Ethernet variants: -100Base-TX (UTO cabling) -100Base-FX (Fiber cabling) -1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet on UTP) -1000Base-SX (Gigabit Ethernet on Fiber) • 100m maximum cable length per node/PC (100Base TX). • 550m maximum cable length per node/PC (1000BaseSX). What to use: Hubs or Switch??? Hubs characteristics: • Hubs are passive devices switch allows connected hosts to share the network media forming a" collision domain”. • The more hosts connected to the hub, the larger the collision domain, resulting to less bandwidth allotted for each host. Ethernet LANs
Typical Enterprise LAN
What to used: Hubs or Switch??? (con’t) Switch characteristics: • Ethernet LAN switch provides dedicated full- duplex connection between connected hosts. • Hence, full network bandwidth is allotted to each hosts regardless of their number. • Manage switches are also capable of efficiently managing the network by employing VLANs Ethernet LAN NIC • Used to connect a PC/Printer etc. to network media. Example of a current model high- end Ethernet LAN card. Features: 10/100 Auto- negotiating Ethernet interface, with SNMP-based management • Configure and monitor your network from one centralized location • Power-on any OC from anywhere on the network with Wake- On-LAN support • Optimize your Network traffic with 802.1Q VLAN support and 802.1 traffic priortization Cabling Standards: TIA/EIA Telecommunications Industry Association Electronic Industries Alliance

TIA/EIA-607 for Telecommunications Ethernet Media (Cabling) TI/EIA-568-A • The TIA/EIA standards address six elements of the LAN cabling process: • Horizontal cabling • Telecommunications closets • Backbone cabling • Equipment rooms • Work areas • Entranced facilities • The TIA/EIA standards specify the minimum requirements for multi-product and multi-vendor environments. TIA/EIA-568-A Cabling Specifications • Defines horizontal cabling as cabling that runs from a telecommunications outlet to a horizontal cross-connect • Includes the networking medium that runs along a horizontal pathway, the telecommunications outlet for or connector, the mechanical terminations in the wiring closet. Shielded Twister Pair (STP and ScTP) • Shielded twisted-pair cable (STP) combines the techniques of shielding, cancellation, and twisting of wires. -Each pair of wires is wrapped in metallic foil. - The four pairs of wires are wrapped in an overall metallic braid or foil. • A new hybrid of UTP with traditional STP is Screened UTP (ScTP), also known as Foil Twisted Pair (FTP). -ScTP is essentially UTP wrapped in a metallic foil shield, or Screen.
