Concepts Learned • Switch to port • Router to switch • Firewall to router • DNS • Redundancy • Wireless mesh • DVR capture & storage
Switch to Port • Cable runs from port to patch panel • Patch panel is labeled according to the ports • Each port on the patch panel is connected to a switch by another cord.
Router to Switch • Routes information between switches. • Resets the hop count • Information jumping from switch to switch is a hop • Hubs included in a hop
Firewall to Router • Firewall sits between internal and external networks. • Controls the flow of information between the two networks.
DNS • Domain Name System translates humanly meaningful names into numerical identifiers for network equipment. • Every domain has to have one.
Redundancy • Having backup equipment installed so that in the event that one device fails another can take over instantaneously. • Network equipment • Server power supplies • Battery backups
Wireless Mesh • A wireless communication network made up of many nodes that act as a single node. • Each node establishes a connection with another node wirelessly.
DVR Capture & Storage • A Digital Video Recorder controls when and how footage is captured and stored. • How much video needs to be readily available? • How long does the video need to be stored?
Experience • An eye opener • Experience that can not be found in the class room. • Holding your own while learning.
Conclusion • Projects • Wire pulls – Oakwood, LMU & Marymount • LMU switch install • LMU wireless • Security install – Oakwood • Real world experience • Concepts learned • Switch to port • Router to switch • Firewall to router • DNS • Redundancy • Wireless mesh • DVR capture & storage
