Networking Baics

1. a scalable topology that includes the uses of “roots”
5. topology that allows only one system to send information at a time
6. the principle data routes creating the framework of the internet
7. common connector style on a twisted pair wiring system
8. transmits network data to only intended recipient gives all users same bandwidth
10. any connection point on a network
12. a computer that provides shared resources to users on a network
13. a software or hardware based solution to keep a network safe
15. a site that offers wireless access to the Internet
18. a network that usually connects many LANS and covers an area the size of a city or district
19. used between networks using the same protocol and determines the shortest path to destination
21. network that branches out and covers a large area such as a state country or the globe
22. network confined to a relatively small geographic area such as a room or building
23. twisted pair networking cable capable of 1 Gbps transfer speeds, uses twisted pair

1. five common types describes the way networks are connected
2. creates and reads “packets” of information created by systems in a network
3. a user in a network with no centralized server each user can act as client or server
4. allows the wireless exchange of information on a network
6. the available data communications resources expressed in bits per second
9. computers or workstations that access resources on the network
11. topology using a central hub that all devices plug into
14. a family of networking technologies commonly used to create LANs
15. redirects signals received from network components to other systems
16. a network used for communications between personal devices and the Internet
17. unreliable topology that is easy to implement for small networks but hard to troubleshoot
20. the distance one can be from the source of a hotspot
