NETWORKING
WIRED NETWORKS
A LAN, or local area network, is a group of computers, printers or other hardware that are all connected in a reasonably small geographic location like a office or home. A LAN makes it possible for the connected users to share files and applications that usually reside on a server or some type of shared computer. LANs were invented to let people and computers share information. A server can have an application or database that is accessed by all the other computers on the LAN. This allows users to share information quickly and easily.
WIRELESS NETWORKS
The term wireless networking refers to technology that enables two or more computers to communicate using standard network protocols, but without network cabling. Strictly speaking, any technology that does this could be called wireless networking. The current buzzword however generally refers to wireless LANs
VOIP
VoIP stands for 'V'oice 'o'ver 'I'nternet 'P'rotocol. As the term says VoIP tries to let go voice (mainly human) through IP packets and, in definitive through Internet. VoIP can use accelerating hardware to achieve this purpose and can also be used in a PC environment.
VPN CONNECTIONS
A VPN is a Virtual Private Network. That's not to be confused with a truly private network, where you own the wires all the way from point A to point B, and nobody else can use them. In a VPN, some part of the path from A to B is a public network such as the Internet or the public telephone system. However VPN (through judicious use of software) builds a "tunnel" through that public system for your private data traffic.
MAIL SERVERS
A mail server is an application that receives email from email clients or other mail servers. It is the workhorse of the email system.
A mail server usually consists of a storage area, a set of user definable rules, a list of users and a series of communication modules.
FIREWALL SERVERS
A firewall protects networked computers from intentional hostile intrusion that could compromise confidentiality or result in data corruption or denial of service. It may be a hardware device or a software program running on a secure host computer.
