Editor's Notes
- #4 Teaching Tip Figure 9A.2 on page 342 visually describes the sharing process. It can be helpful to have students open a shared file that you control. Make a change then have the students open it again. Alternatively, share a document and allow your students to write in it. Then demonstrate how the shared document changes. Spend time discussing why application servers need to be so powerful.
- #5 Teaching tip Figure 9A.4 on page 344 shows a print queue. It can be helpful to demonstrate your classroom queue.
- #7 Teaching tip It is fun if you can setup a teleconference in your classroom. Students get to learn how to join or create the conference. Additionally, they learn how to participate. Finally, students have fun, especially with shared whiteboards.
- #9 Insider information The text describes needing special software to back up data from user drives. However, the backup utility that comes with Windows 2000 and XP is capable of performing this chore.
- #10 Teaching tip Use a real world example to describe an organization with interconnected LANs.
- #11 Teaching tip Blockbuster Video uses a WAN to connect it’s stores nationwide. Customers from Pittsburgh may rent videos in Hilton Head. Late fees will even be displayed!
- #13 Teaching tip An example of a regional resource is a supercomputer. For example, Pittsburgh has the Pittsburgh Super Computing center (www.psc.edu). The various colleges in Pittsburgh connect to the center through a MAN in Pittsburgh.
- #15 Insider information PAN is very new. Few devices support PAN. High end cell phones include Bluetooth technology. Once the technology matures, Bluetooth will allow the creation of a PAN.
- #16 Teaching tip Spend a few minutes here discussing password policies. Describe why it is important not to give out a password. Also describe why longer, more complicated passwords are important.
- #18 Teaching tip Discuss how users managing their own security settings can be bad.
- #19 Teaching tip Discuss how your network topology handles collisions. If your students are technical, contrast this with an inferior topology.
- #20 Teaching tip For technical students take the time to draw the packet structure on the board. The typical structure is destination address | sending address | packet number | total packets | data size | payload | error control.
- #21 Teaching tip Pages 352 and 353 have diagrams of each network topology
- #28 Insider information Interference is usually electrical. Magnets, solar flares or electronic devices generate interference.
- #30 Teaching tip Remind students that bps is bits per second. Gbps then is billion bits per second.
- #31 Teaching tip Now is the time to briefly discuss 802.11 standards. A full discussion of 802.11 is covered in the next section.
- #32 Insider Information The Xerox Corporation controls the assignment of Ethernet addresses to NIC manufacturers.
- #35 Insider information Twisted pair networks cannot achieve higher than 10 Mbps using a hub. Switches are necessary to achieve 100 Mbps or higher.
- #37 Discussion point Ask who in the class has high speed Internet. Then determine if anyone is sharing this to the rest of the house or dorm. If they are, see if they can describe the setup. Most likely, the sharing is done with a router.
- #41 Teaching tip Point out that the speed of the cable is the number before the word Base.
- #45 Teaching tip Have students determine IP addresses for the computer. On 2000/XP enter ipconfig /all. Windows 98 and back enter winipcfg.
- #47 Discussion Point Have students tell you what BIOS stands for.
