Peer-To-Peer Flashcards
Key Reminders in doing Peer-to-Peer
ENABLE NETWORK DISCOVERY
SET THE NETWORK TYPE
FILE AND PRINTER SHARING
CREATE SHARED FOLDERS
ADJUST FIREWALL SETTINGS
USE THE SAME WORKGROUP
IP ADDRESS CONFIGURATION
USER PERMISSIONS
Ensure that network discovery is turned on so that devices can see and communicate with each other on the network
Enable Network Discovery
Make sure your network is set to** either Private** (recommended for P2P networks) or Domain (if applicable)
SET THE NETWORK TYPE
Enable file and printer sharing to allow peers to access shared files and printers.
FILE AND PRINTER SHARING
Designate specific folders to share with other peers.
CREATE SHARED FOLDERS
Ensure that the Windows Firewall or any other firewall software allows P2P traffic.
ADJUST FIREWALL SETTINGS
Use static IP addresses for easier connectivity
IP ADDRESS CONFIGURATION
All computers should be part of the same workgroup
USE THE SAME WORKGROUP
Set appropriate user permissions for shared files and folders to control who can access or modify them
USER PERMISSIONS
Displays the current IP configuration for all network interfaces
ipconfig
Tests connectivity between two network devices by sending
packets.
ping
Displays a list of shared resources on the local computer.
net share
Displays active connections and listening ports, which can help you identify which applications are using the network.
netstat
displays the configuration of the workstation service, including the current workgroup
net config workstation
Displays local group memberships, which can help in managing user permissions for shared resources.
net localgroup
A powerful command-line scripting utility for configuring and monitoring network settings.
netsh
SOME BRANDS OF ROUTER
Sometimes you may fail to access what type of router??
Normally this Route’s default IP is http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1;
TPLINK
SOME BRANDS OF ROUTER
This router is secure by default
The password can be located on
the bottom of the unit by the serial number.
D-LINK
Made by Cisco
You can reset the router to restore these default login details.
LINKSYS
device used to conjoin two pieces of metal by deforming one or both of them to hold each other.
Crimping Tool
Easily identify wiring order, this function allows the wires to pass all the way through the plug to let you verify
Pass Through
connectors work with most standard crimp tools
Non Pass Through
One of the most basic and essential tools for hardware installation
This tool allows you to strip off the insulation and sheath of the cable, exposing the conductors and connectors.
CABLE STRIPPERS AND CUTTERS
Use in networking installations, such as setting up network racks, patch panels, or handling sensitive electronic equipment.
SCREWDRIVER SET
A ______ ______ tester is a device that can identify whether the wires are paired correctly
NETWORK CABLE TESTER
are used for finding electrical cables such as internet cables, phone lines, speaker wires, and ethernet wires in a house or building.
Find cables by tracing electrical signals back to their sources.
NETWORK CABLE TONER AND PROBE KITS
RJ45 stands for ____ ____.
The specifications for registered connectors refer to the wiring patterns of the** jacks** and not to their physical properties.
Registered Jack-45
Standard RJ45 connectors can also be named as ___ ___________ RJ45 connectors, which are usually referred to as 8P8C modular plugs
non pass-through
This RJ45 onnectors allows network cable wires to pass out of the connector body.
Pass-through
This RJ45 connector have a plastic housing
Unshielded RJ45
This RJ45 connector usually feature a metal shield to avoid too much EMI
EMI - Electromagnetic Interference
Shielded RJ45
These connectors usually require a professional tool - RJ45 crimping tool.
Standard RJ45
This connector or field termination plug can be easily terminated without a crimping tool.
Toolless RJ45
These connectors have an additional load bar, designed to help align eight wires for easy and quick wiring.
Two-piece RJ45
“Cat” cables, short for “category”, are used to connect computer network devices such as modems, routers, computers, servers and switches
also called network, LAN cables
ETHERNET CABLE / CAT CABLES
4 Types of Shielding
U/UTP
F/UTP
U/FTP
S/FTP
Where: TP = twisted pair, U = unshielded, F= foil shielded, S = braided shielding.
TYPRES OF WIRE
This type of wire is more flexible and it is more applicable for Ethernet cables where the cable may be moved
Stranded cable
is not as flexible as the stranded type, but it is also more durable.
Solid cable
CATEGORIES FOR ETHERNET CABLES
What is TIA?
Telecommunications Industries
Association (TIA)
This is not recognised by the TIA/EIA.
It is the form of wiring that is used for standard telephone (POTS) wiring, or for ISDN.
CAT-1
This is also not recognised by theTIA/EIA
It was the form of wiring that was used for 4 Mbit/s token ring networks.
CAT-2
this cable is defined in TIA/EIA-568-B
It is used for data networks employing frequencies up to 16 MHz.
Was popular for 10mbps Ethernet networks
CAT-3
This is also not recognized by the TIA/EIA
However it can be used for networks carrying frequencies up to 20 MHz.
was often used on 16mbps token ring networks
CAT-4
is a physical and data link layer computer networking technology used to build local area networks.
TOKEN RING
This is the network cable that is widely used for 100Base-T and 1000Base-T networks as it provides performance to allow data at 100 Mbps
also not recognized by TIA/EIA
CAT-5
For a number of years this became the standard for Ethernet cabling.
CAT-5
It has a slightly higher frequency specification that Cat-5 cable as the performance extends up to 125 Mbps.
this cable is recognized by the TIA/EIA and is defined in IA/EIA-568
CAT-5E
Cat 5 enhanced
cables are more tightly wound than either Cat 5 or Cat 5e and they often have an outer foil or braided shielding.
cable defined in TIA/EIA-568-B
CAT-6
This cable can technically support speeds up to 10 Gbps, but can only do so for up to 55 metres - even so this makes them relatively long Ethernet cables.
CAT-6
These cables are able to support twice the maximum bandwidth, and are capable of maintaining higher transmission speeds over longer network cable lengths.
A is for?
CAT-6A
A = Augmented
This is an informal number for ISO/IEC 11801 Class F cabling
It comprises four individually shielded pairs inside an overall shield.
CAT-7
Now released and provide a huge step up in data rate / bandwidth
CAT-8
It was developed by NEXANS.GG45 connector used in cat 7 cable
GG45-GIGAGATE45
