Introduction to establishing a dormitory Network

Next, we will introduce the protocol for establishing the dormitory network. About the Gateway: provides the conversion between network protocols in communication, which is suitable for information exchange between hosts of different protocols ), domain Name resolution Server NDS: Domain Name System, that is, converting the URL you entered into a digital IP address) and NetBIOS.

I. Introduction

Computer hardware is updated faster and cheaper. On campus, it is common for students to have computers. Imagine if these computers do not form a network, but are independent from each other, will they feel lonely and lonely? The answer is yes. Here I will start with the most basic things and bring readers to form a dormitory network. This provides functions such as resource sharing, proxy surfing, and game battles.

Ii. Simplified Protocol

TCP/IP protocol: it is currently the most popular commercial protocol. Compared with OSI, it is the current industrial standard or "de facto standard" proposed by Kahn in 1974. It consists of four layers: application layer, transmission layer, Interconnection layer, and host-network layer. TCP/IP protocol is mainly used for Wide Area Networks and also has applications in some LAN networks. For example, it can be used in windows 9x and netware networks, but there is still a gap in functionality and speed, the original TCP/IP design goal is different from IPX/SPX.

When setting up the TCP/IP protocol for a dormitory network, there are mainly IP addresses and subnet masks. Gateway: Provides the conversion between network protocols in communication, suitable for information exchange between hosts of different protocols), Domain Name resolution Server NDS: Domain Name System, that is, converting the URL you entered into a digital IP address) and NetBIOS and so on.

IPX/SPX Protocol: This is a widely used network protocol. IPX/SPX is XEROX's Network SystemXNS Protocol based on XEROX, while SPX is XEROX's spox quenced Packet Protocol based on XEROX, they are a high-speed protocol developed by novell for LAN.

A major difference between it and TCP/IP is that it does not use an IP address, but uses the NIC physical address (MAC) address. Like TCP/IP, it cannot be exactly the same as OSI. It only contains the transport layer and network layer of OSI. In actual use, it basically does not need any settings, and can be used after installation.

Since it played a huge role in the early days of network popularity, it has been supported by many vendors, including microsoft, and many software and hardware have now supported this protocol. NetBIOS and NetBEUI: developed by microsoft and IBM, NetBIOS is a Session Layer Protocol that establishes connection sessions that allow applications on different computers to transmit over the network.

Building a dormitory network is designed to communicate with other computers on the same network. In win9x & me, When you select "enable NetBIOS in IPX/SPX" in IPX/SPX, in TCP/IP Settings, you can select "enable NetBIOS through TCP/IP ".

NetBEUI is designed by IBM as a network product of the network transmission station. It is an extended version of NetBIOS and defines the volume type that is not defined by NetBIOS. It can transmit data on a single network of small and medium sizes. It can be directly installed in win9x & me to build a dormitory network.
