Computer Network

About Computer Network

A computer network, or data network, is a digital telecommunications network which allows nodes to share resources. In computer networks, computing devices exchange data with each other using connections between nodes (data links.) These data links are established over cable media such as wires or optic cables, or wireless media such as WiFi.
Network computer devices that originate, route and terminate the data are called network nodes. Nodes can include hosts such as personal computers, phones, servers as well as networking hardware. Two such devices can be said to be networked together when one device is able to exchange information with the other device, whether or not they have a direct connection to each other. In most cases, application-specific communications protocols are layered (i.e. carried as payload) over other more general communications protocols. This formidable collection of information technology requires skilled network management to keep it all running reliably.
Computer networks support an enormous number of applications and services such as access to the World Wide Web, digital video, digital audio, shared use of application and storage servers, printers, and fax machines, and use of email and instant messaging applications as well as many others. Computer networks differ in the transmission medium used to carry their signals, communications protocols to organize network traffic, the network's size, topology and organizational intent. The best-known computer network is the Internet.

How to Configure Spanning Tree root bridge

How to Configure Spanning Tree root bridge Hi Today we going to talk about how to configure STP Root bridge, Root bridge election is happening with the switchers in the network, To become a root there should be some qualification among switchers, they are, bridge priority Lowest MAC  default bridge priority is  32769   this is tie among switchers then root elect using lowest MAC to change default root configure switch like below Switch#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)#sp Switch(config)#spanning-tree vl Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 ? priority Set the bridge priority for the spanning tree root Configure switch as root <cr> Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 ro Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 root ? primary Configure this switch as ...

Introduction to Spanning Tree Protocol

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)                                    Hi After some brake today I gone to talk about spanning tree protocol or STP, When the network expand we need some redundant connection from switch to switch because of stop network fail.                  When we deal with redundant connection It automatically create loops. As a result of loops our network create broadcast storms .                                             To prevent this we use STP. when we talking about STP we need to look at various features like  Root port Designated port Block port Bridge Priority   etc... STP is huge section in Networking from today we'll learn about this STP. My next lesson is how to identify th...
