Networking with Windows Server 2003-Part 2
Yapa Wijeratne (MCP)
What is a Network ?
Interconnection between two or more computers for the purpose of sharing resources.
E.g. Hardwares (DVD-Rom , printer, HDD…)
Softwares (Antivirus , Games )
Informations ( Internet , E-mail )
Networks can be divide using 3 criterias.
Geographical Topology Operating System
1.LAN 1.Bus 1.Desktop O/S
2.WAN 2.Ring Windows (3.0 /98/ NT/2000/ Xp
3.MAN- Metropolitan 3.Star /Vista) ,Linux
4.TAN-Tiny 4.Mesh 2.Server O/S
5.CAN-Campus 5.Hybrid NT server, 2000 Advanced Server
6.SAN-Storage 2000 Data center Server
7.HAN-Home Linux Server,2003 Server
8.PAN-Personel (Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition, Data center Edition, Web Edition )
LAN- Local Area Network.
A network implemented within single geographical location.
WAN-Wide Area Network.
A network implemented among two or more geographical locations.
MAN-Metropolitan Area Network.
Node Link Network
Node
• PC
• Router
• Switch\Hub
Link
• wired
• wireless
Networking with Windows Server 2003-Part 2
Yapa Wijeratne (MCP)
A WAN implemented within a single city mostly using fibre optic cables.
TAN –Tiny Area Network.
A LAN implemented within maximum of 5 computers.
CAN- Campus Area Network.
A WAN implemented among universities/ military bases /or schools. Only they can access to
the network.
SAN-Storage Area Network. To storage only. In banks.
HAN-Home Area Network. networking home equipments such as AC , Fridge ,Heater, Mobile
phone ….
PAN- Personal Area Network. Networking people & their equipments in spacecrafts & military
operations.
Topology
Physical arrangement of computers.
1.bus 2.star 3.ring 4.mesh 5.hybrid
BUS Topology
This is a broadcasting method.
The data will be transfer to all the machines at the same time.
This makes more traffic & makes the communication slow.
Use Co-Axial cables.
Networking with Windows Server 2003-Part 2
Yapa Wijeratne (MCP)
RING Topology
This is forwarding method. (sends message only to the destination)
The data will be passed to one machine another.
Less traffic makes the communication fast.
Use Co-Axial cables.
STAR Topology-with HUB
This is a broadcasting method. (doesn’t forward message only to the destination)
The data will be passed to the all machines at the same time.
The destination computer will be identified by network computers by matching their IP / MAC
address.
More traffic & slow communication.
Networking with Windows Server 2003-Part 2
Yapa Wijeratne (MCP)
STAR Topology-with SWITCH
This is forwarding method.
The data will be passed to destination computer only.
The destination computer will be identified by switch.
The switch keeps IP/MAC address in its temporary memory.
Less traffic makes communication fast.
Cables used in LAN
Co – axial cables
Thin Thick
Resistance 50 Ω 100 Ω
Maximum supporting distance between 2 computers
185 m 200 m / 500 m
Maximum supporting speed 10 Mbps 10 Mbps
Twisted pair cable-TP
Single Twisted pair cable contain 8 cables in the colours of blue ,green , orange ,brown ,white
blue , white green, white orange white brown. There are two types of cables & both support
distance up to 100m among 2 computers.
UTP-Unshielded TP STP-Shielded TP
Good for Indoor connections outdoor connections
EMI-(Electro Magnetic Induction) sensitivity
Yes No (EMIproof)
*Less expensive than STP *inside cables covered by Aluminium foil.
Twisted pair cable categories & data transmitting speed
1.CAT 5 (category 5)-10/100 Mbps
Networking with Windows Server 2003-Part 2
Yapa Wijeratne (MCP)
2. CAT 5e (category 5 enhanced )-10/100/1000 Mbps
3. CAT 6 (category 6)-10/100/1000/10,000 Mbps
4. CAT 7 (category 7)-10/100/1000/10,000/10,000+ Mbps
Hub
Hub copies the message & broadcast to the all nodes ;so communication is slow. Two types.
1. Active hub- regenerates signals
2. Passive hub- doesn’t regenerate signals
Switch
It has internal temporary memory & signals are regenerated. Forwarding method makes
communication fast.
Data Transmission
In networks data transmit in different ways.(token, packet) There are three parts in data
packet.
1. Head
2. Body (Message)
3. Tail
When we send a data packet, it travels to the destination and replies that it is successful & if it
can’t reach the destination no replies so we called it a “packet lost”. There are 3 data
transmitting methods.
1. Simplex (in Radio)-only receives
2. Half duplex (in vokey tokey )-sends & receives but one at a time.
3. Duplex (in telephone)- sends & receives in same time.

Installing Windows Server 2003
1) Configuring BIOS setup, partitioning & formatting.
Press F10 or DEL key to go to setup.
Storage> Boot order set CD-ROM as the first boot devise.(This step can be vary by the
computer)
Insert the server CD, select Save & Exit.
Press any key to boot from CD. Enter to continue. Press F8 to agree with license. Press D key
to delete partition & C key to create partition. Select a created partition & Enter to
continue. Select quick format (NTFS) & Enter to restart the computer.
2) Finalize the setting in the GUI.
Click next for Regional Settings & type your name & organization.
Enter the serial key. JB88F-WT2Q3-DPXTT-Y8GHG-7YYQY
Select Per Device Per User option to connect unspecified clients. Type the computer name
& administrators password. Set the date time & time zone. Select Typical for network
settings & select workgroup option.
Take out the CD when finalizing.
IP address (Internet Protocol address)
This is a software address used to identify the computer in the network. This can be assign by
the network administrator. It can be changed any time. Eg: 192.168.10.6
IP address contain four parts. Each part is called “octet” means consist of 8 bits. Therefore IP
address consist of 32 bit value.
1st Octet 2nd Octet 3rd Octet 4th Octet
Bit 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20
Value in decimal
128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
There are 3 IP classes are now in use; Class A, Class B & Class C. IP address contain two parts
NETWORK ID & HOST ID. Network administrator has to decide what type of IP address to be
used. It depend on the number of sub networks & number of hosts in the main network.

Important
127.0.0.1 called Loop Back IP (localhost) used to verify that TCP/IP is correctly installed & bound
to your network card. If ping 127.0.0.1 fail ; problem is probably your NIC not working properly
& need to reconfigure. If it is older NIC need to configure to use different IRQ resources (in
device manager).

Network Architecture
1) Workgroup
There is no server to control the network.
Less security & restrictions.
Microsoft recommends only 10 computers in a workgroup.
2) Domain Environment (Server/ Client)
The Server controls the network.
High security & restrictions.
The number of clients depend on the IP class.
