Windows XP Network Overview

• Most versatile Windows operating system• Supports local area network (LAN) connections• Supports emerging wireless technologies• Improved on the remote access support found in

previous versions• Can function as:

• Client

• Server (limited)

• Both

Windows XP Network Overview (continued)

• Can function as:• Client

• Server (limited)

• Both

• Networking components can be added and removed

Guide to MCSE 70-270, Second Edition, Enhanced 3

TCP/IP

• All-embracing suite of protocols• Covers a wide range of capabilities• Been around for a long time• Most common networking protocol• Used by the Internet

Guide to MCSE 70-270, Second Edition, Enhanced 4

TCP/IP Advantages

• Supports networking services better than the other Windows XP protocols

• Multiple routing protocols• Good error detection and handling• Works with most kinds of computers

Guide to MCSE 70-270, Second Edition, Enhanced 5

TCP/IP Disadvantages

• Not fast• Not easy to use• Requires

• Fair degree of expertise

• Careful planning

• Constant maintenance and attention

• Mass of information and detail work

Guide to MCSE 70-270, Second Edition, Enhanced 6

Networking Under Windows XP

• Controlled by a single multifaceted interface that combines networking access for:• LAN

• Internet

• Modem

Guide to MCSE 70-270, Second Edition, Enhanced 7

TCP/IP Architecture

• Suite of protocols• Internet Protocol

• Provides source and destination addressing and routing

• Addresses• 4 bytes (32 bits) long

• Each octet between 0 and 255

• Connectionless datagram protocol

• Fast but unreliable

Guide to MCSE 70-270, Second Edition, Enhanced 13

IP Addresses

• Designates network and host• Divided into Classes• Subnet mask:

• Used to block network part of address
