Referencing Models  The TCP/IP Model: Model is a conceptual framework used to describe the functions of a networking system. This model divides network functions into 4 (sometimes describe by 5) layers The OSI Model: Mainly used for debugging it is a conceptual framework used to describe the functions of a networking system. This model divides network framework into 7 layers. Protocols Networks need to have a set of rules of how to communicate and transmit information from start to end. These rules are called PROTOCOLS Without common protocols, networks would not understand each other. Protocols work with specific layers of the network model, depending on the function A port in networking is a software-defined number associated to a network protocol that receives or transmits communication for a specific service Why are network functions logically separated into layers?

Network Tools Tools are needed to diagnose issues with a network and figure out what could be wrong with them. IPconfig Is a command on windows' command line that gives you information on you Ping Is another command on windows used to send a packet to a outside client either through the internet or through your local network Tracert A traceroute, also called tracert, is a network testing term that shows a network connection's real-time path a packet takes to reach a network resource. It examines the hops that communication will follow across the IP network. Backup Copying data to a separate location to preserve the data that you are afraid could be compromised Wireshark Used to scan a network and look at all the packets being send in and out of the network.

DHCP

DHCP This is an example of a DHCP enabled server. The server is assigned the first ip in this case (19.168.0.1) and it then uses the subnet mask (255.255.255.0) and the start ip address (192.168.0.3) to assign ip address for each of the different clients. This makes it significantly easier for people who need to setup large scale networks without assigning individual ips. HTML  &  DNS Services On the server you must be able to direct traffic to a specific location when requesting for a certain IP, in this case (192.168.0.1). I have set this up as a n A record, which is a fundamental type of DNS record that maps a domain name to the IP address of the computer hosting the domain. When a computer then requests the IP address the DNS service then redirects it to the HTTP service.

You accumulate debt when you don't pay back what you owe and the bank adds a percentage of the money you owe back on to the total amount, so you now owe the bank more money. Debt Card: Debt Cards are not like credit cards, instead of having a spending cap, you instead put your own money directly into your account, which you can then spend online Cash by mail: Very self-explanatory you send the amount that is owed in the mail Any payment made with vendor using Debt cards or credit cards, means the vendor will have to pay a fee to the credit or debt card provider.
