Today we started off by learning about the different network surfaces and what they actually do. We learnt about broadband and the varied speeds it can have, we learnt about packets and how packets of data travel from one computer to another. I feel that I understand how each network surface works and there advantages and limitations.
The afternoon moved on to talking about communication models and protocols mainly talking about what they were and what the acronyms stood for. I understood most of this as I wrote down twenty comments on the PowerPoint mainly containing the definitions of each protocol and model.
The answer to the question name the two top level protocols on TCP/IP is application and transport.
the answer to the question how many layers does the OSI model have? is that it has seven layers.
The answer to the question how many layers does the TCP/IP model have? is that it has four layers.
The answer to the question what does IP stand for? is that it stands for internet protocol.
Overall today started off well because I enjoyed the team work aspect of the day as we were given four network surfaces to research about. The afternoon then got complicated because I was presented with a sheet in which I had to fill in binary on the sheet. I could not do this for the life of me, the video didn't even help me.
