  1. CHAPTER Exploring the Network for Soft Resources

  2. Chapter Objectives • Describe the process of exploring the network for servers and resources • Introduce the use of Universal Naming Convention in finding resources • Explain the process of locating a resource on any client in the network

  3. Chapter Modules • Locating a Server • Locating a Resource • Connecting to a Resource Using the Universal Naming Convention • Locating a Resource on Another Client Computer

  4. The Client-Server Network Neighborhood Network Neighborhood NAFTA US Canada Mexico

  5. Finding a Resource • Locating the server is the first step • Through the explorer at a client computer, in general • Windows 95 or Windows NT is required • If not found through the explorer, the find option can be used • Locating the resource on the computer is the next step

  7. Module Objectives • Locating a server • Case example • The steps using the Explorer • Demonstration using the Explorer • Locating the server using the find command • The steps • Demonstration

  8. Locating a Server Locate using Explorer/ Network Neighborhood NAFTA US Canada Mexico

  9. Locating a Server on the Network: Through the Explorer Explorer at the Client Network Neighborhood Locate the Server (US)

  10. Locating a Server Using the Explorer: Demonstration

  11. Locating a Server Using the Find Feature Start Find/ Computer Server name (US)/ Find Now

  12. Locating a Server Using the Find Feature: Demonstration

  14. MODULE Locating a Resource © N. Ganesan, All rights reserved.

  15. Module Objectives • Locating a resource on the network • Locating a resource • Case example • Steps using the Explorer • Demonstration using the Explorer

  16. Locating the Resources on the Network • Through Explorer at the client, in general • The alternative is to use the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) for the resource

  17. Finding a Resource: Case Example Shared Folder US Tariff Rates Shared file Canada Mexico

  18. Finding a Resource Through the Explorer Network Neighborhood Explorer Locate the resource (The file Rates through the folder Tariff). Locate the Server (US)

  19. Finding a Resource Through the Explorer: Demonstration

  21. MODULE Finding a Resource Using the Universal Naming Convention © N. Ganesan, All rights reserved.

  22. Module Objectives • Universal naming convention • An example of UNC • Using the Find command to locate a resource • Steps • Demonstration • The need to use the Find option

  23. Universal Naming Convention \\computer name\resource name

  24. UNC Example Shared Folder US Tariff Rates Shared file Canada Mexico Foler access from Canada: \\US\Tariff File access from Canada: \\US\Tariff\Rates

  25. Using the Find Command to Locate a Resource Find (or Search)/ File or Folders Start Named: Rates Look in: \\US\Tariff

  26. Using the Find Command to Locate a Resource: Demonstration

  27. The Need to Use the Find Option • In general, the explorer option is used widely to locate and access a resource • The find feature has more significance in locating a resource in a peer-to-peer networking environment • The Find command may also be used to locate a resource on another client within a client-server environment
