Q

The most popular small office or home network configuration because it is the least expensive and most simple to set up

A

Peer-to-Peer Network

17
Q

There is a centralized computer (the server) that controls the operations, files, and sometimes the programs of the computers (the clients) attached to the network

A

Server-Based Network

18
Q

Similar to a server-based network in that there is a centralized computer that controls the operations of the network

A

Client-Based Network

19
Q

computer that manages resources for other computers, servers, and networked devices.

A

Server

20
Q

●A device that is found on a network that requests services and resources from a server.
●May be another computer, a printer, or any other networkable device that needs a server to complete its tasks.
●Almost any personal computer (PC) can be a client, as long as it can be attached to the network

A

Thin Client

21
Q

●Computer that can work independently of the network and process and manage its own files.

A

Thick Client

22
Q

Similar to the wiring used for the cable television that is run into a house.

A

Coaxial Cable

provides the interface between the computer and the network medium

A

Network Interface Card

27
Q

the simplest device that can be used to connect several pieces of equipment together for network communication purposes.

A

Network Hub

28
Q

is similar to a hub, but it sends data only to those devices to which the data are directed

A

network switch

29
Q

the physical (geometric) layout of the connected devices on a network.

A

Topology

30
Q

Is a network in which all devices are physically attached to and listen for communication on a single wire.

33
Q

Network that has multiple pathways interconnecting devices and networks.

A

Mesh Topology

34
Q

sometimes created so that larger networks can be segmented or broken up into smaller networks to reduce traffic within that network

A
