Understand the key components used in networking Key components: network devices; interconnection devices; connectors and cabling; software Network devices: workstations; servers eg print, mail, file, web, proxy; others eg network interface cards (NIC); features and functions Interconnection devices: equipment eg router, switch, wireless access points; purposes, features and functions of each Connectors and cabling: leased line; dedicated line; media types eg STP, Category 5, coaxial, UTP, fibre optic; wireless; mobile technology; cable/connection standards Software: network operating system; virus checker; firewall; other eg email client Commercial systems: software eg Mac OSX, Linux, Windows 

Know the services provided by network systems Directory services: used for eg account management, authentication management, active directory, DNS Telecommunication services: communication eg email, internet relay chat (IRC), discussion boards; remote access eg via mobiles, remote desktop, social networking File services: file transfer; file sharing Application services: application software eg database, web, proxy; shared resources eg printing; storage space; Voice over IP (VoIP); mobile working; authentication eg users, hardware 
Be able to make networked systems secure Securing a system: passwords, authorisation permissions and access control lists; backing up and restoring; encrypting; others eg biometrics; physical security eg CCTV, locks, firewalls; security risk levels; software protection eg antivirus, intrusion detection systems Business risks: loss of service; loss of business or income eg through loss of customer records; increased costs; loss of confidentiality; compromised data integrity; security issues eg malware (hostile, intrusive, or annoying software or program code), viruses, Trojans, worms, spyware, adware ]]> 2018-09-11 12:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279808450 tibulschia https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279808549 P1 -  describing networks, protocols and standards, learners could produce a report/poster using diagrams. Alternatively, a small set of linked web pages could be appropriate or a presentation 

P2 -  be able to demonstrate they understand why different network standards and protocols are necessary. Examples given should be realistic. This can be linked to P1. ]]> 2018-09-11 12:22:50 UTC https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279808549 rock_boy_james https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279809200 The M2 criterion in assignment 2 states that you must "design a networked solution to meet a particular situation with specific requirements". to complete this criterion you would have to design a working network design that meets the needs set out in the assignment scenario.

M2 Relates to the Criteria of Assignment 1 as it puts the  ]]> 2018-09-11 12:24:24 UTC https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279809200 tibulschia https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279809972 In the assignment you have to compare different networks, standards and protocols. ]]> 2018-09-11 12:25:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tibulschia/unit9/wish/279809972
