Likewise, if the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0, then the computer will assume that every IP address in its local network will be in the format of 192.168.xxx.xxx.What makes up a network?These are the bases of a computer on a stand-alone networkstand-alone network:A desktop or laptop computer that is used on its own without requiring a connection to a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Although it may be connected to a network, it is still a stand-alone PC as long as the network connection is not mandatory for its general use.If a device wanted to communicate with another network, such as the internet it would need a few more settingsIn order for a device to communicate with another network, it would need a Gateway to talk tooA Gateway address:It’s the same as the IP Address of a device on the network, that device usually being a router, is responsible for communications between hosts of other networksFor example, if your computer is requesting an internet webpage, the request first runs through your default gateway before exiting the local network?to reach the internet.DNS (domain name services) server addressUsed to transfer website names to IP addressThese are large systems on the internet that can obtain a database of sorts that has a listing of domain names and their associated IP AddressesOnce all these pieces are in place, your system can connect to another network, like the InternetTo make these concepts a little bit clearer, see the pic of a LAN (local area network)The room itself is in-closed in a wall, known as the subnet maskThis subnet mask identifies any systems within this room as belonging to this networkLocal network traffic stays within the subnetAny traffic not bound for or destined for another system within this room, has to go thru the doorway or gateway before entering other networks to find it’s next destinationFor example… if a system within the subnet room needs to request a website, that traffic has to leave the subnet room to locate that website1st, the computer needs to find out what IP Address houses the website that they wish to accessSo they will ask DNS to find this out for themOnce they get the IP address of where they want to go, the computer sends it’s request for the website out of the subnetThe traffic encounters the door to the room, which is the network gateway and ask the gateway where it needs to go to find this websiteThe gateway then adds information to the data request such as a map thru the hallway that should route it to the appropriate room that has the websiteThe website responds to the original request, sending a response back to the original requesting computer via the routing information found in the requestHardware: Every computer has an IP Address assigned to themThere are 2 other addresses a network computer hasLocal (loopback) IP address: 127.0.0.1Not assessible from other machinesMeant to be used on a per machine basis to test to see if IP protocols are working on a systemMAC address: 00:09:6B:CD:2B:87The actual hardware address that’s burnt into the network interface adapterDesigned to uniquely identify each piece of hardware on any networkRouters:Direct network traffic to there destinationsRouters keep their own listing of IP Addresses of where they should send dataFor example, when you’re at home and you’re on your computer that’s connected to the internet, you’re using a router that communicates with your internet service providerThis device (see below) takes the traffic that’s bound for the internet and routes it to your internet service providerYour service provider will then check their collection of routes, known as the routing table to send your data request on their way ................
