I
IEEE
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
International body that defines standards in electronics and electrical engineering,
concerned in particular with the standardisation of LAN technology, transmission protocols,
data transfer rate and wiring.
Infrastructure network
Network with central structure: All Network subscriber s communicate via a central Router .
Internet
Global WAN . A series of protocols known as TCP/IP have been defined for exchanging data.
Every Network subscriber is identifiable via their IP address . DNS assigns a Domain name
to the IP address .
Important services on the Internet include the World Wide Web (WWW), e-mail, file transfer
and discussion forums.
Internet Service Provider
Enables access to the Internet for a fee.
IP (Internet Protocol)
TCP/IP protocol on the Internet . IP is responsible for addressing subscribers in a Network
using IP address es and routes data from the sender to the recipient. IP determines the paths
(routing) along which the data packets travel.
IP address
A unique address for a network component within a network based on the TCP/IP protocols
(e.g., LAN, Internet). On the
Internet , domain names are usually assigned instead of IP
addresses. DNS assigns the corresponding IP address to the domain name.
The IP address has four parts (decimal numbers between 0 and 255) separated by full stops
(e.g., 230.94.233.2).
The IP address is made up of the network number and the number of the
Network
subscriber (e.g., phone). Depending on the Subnet mask , the first one, two or three parts
make up the network number and the rest of the IP address addresses the network
component. The network number of all the components in any one network must be
identical.
IP addresses can be assigned automatically with DHCP (dynamic IP addresses) or manually
(fixed IP addresses).
