Computer Networks Basics

It is the interconnection of multiple devices, generally termed as Hosts connected using multiple paths for the purpose of sending receiving data or media. There are also multiple devices or mediums which helps in the communication between two different devices which are known as Network devices. Ex Router, Switch, Hub, Bridge. The layout pattern using which devices are interconnected is called network topology. Such as Bus, Star, Mesh, Ring, Daisy chain. Computer network, two or more computers that are connected with one another for the purpose of communicating data electronically. Besides physically connecting computer and communication devices, a network system serves the important function of establishing a cohesive architecture that allows a variety of equipment types to transfer information in a near seamless fashion. Two popular architectures are ISO Open Systems Interconnection OSI and IBM's Systems Network Architecture SNA .
