Описание книги

Your ultimate one-stop networking reference    Designed to replace that groaning shelf-load of dull networking books you’d otherwise have to buy and house,  Networking All-in-One For Dummie s covers all the basic and not-so-basic information you need to get a network up and running. It also helps you keep it running as it grows more complicated, develops bugs, and encounters all the fun sorts of trouble you expect from a complex system. Ideal both as a starter for newbie administrators and as a handy quick reference for pros, this book is built for speed, allowing you to get past all the basics—like installing and configuring hardware and software, planning your network design, and managing cloud services—so you can get on with what your network is actually intended to do.  In a friendly, jargon-free style, Doug Lowe—an experienced IT Director and prolific tech author—covers the essential, up-to-date information for networking in systems such as Linux and Windows 10 and clues you in on best practices for security, mobile, and more. Each of the nine minibooks demystifies the basics of one key area of network management.  Plan and administrate your network Implement virtualization Get your head around networking in the Cloud Lock down your security protocols The best thing about this book? You don’t have to read it all at once to get things done; once you’ve solved the specific issue at hand, you can put it down again and get on with your life. And the next time you need it, it’ll have you covered.

Отрывок из книги

Welcome to the eighth edition of Networking All-in-One For Dummies, the one networking book that’s designed to replace an entire shelf full of the dull and tedious networking books you’d otherwise have to buy. This book contains all the basic and not-so-basic information you need to know to get a network up and running and to stay on top of the network as it grows, develops problems, and encounters trouble.

If you’re just getting started as a network administrator, this book is ideal. As a network administrator, you have to know about a lot of different topics: installing and configuring network hardware and software, planning a network, working with TCP/IP, securing your network, working with mobile devices, virtualizing your servers, backing up your data, managing cloud services, and many others.

.....

That’s the second most important thing to know. The first most important thing to know about hubs is that they’re almost never used anymore. That’s because simply repeating all incoming signals on all ports is an incredibly bad idea, for reasons that will become apparent later in this chapter and in Chapter 3 of this minibook. If your network still has hubs, you should seriously consider replacing them with switches, which are described in the next section and further explained in the next chapter.

A switch is a layer-2 device that is similar to a hub in that it allows you to connect more than one device, and packets received on one port are relayed to other ports. The difference, however, is that a switch is able to examine the actual contents of the data that it receives. As I explain in the “Pondering Packets” section, later in this chapter, data is sent in units called packets that contain a destination address. A switch looks at this destination address and repeats the incoming packet only on the port that can deliver the packet to the intended destination.
