The categorization of a network is closely associated with its size and location. In this video, you’ll learn about LANs, WANs, PANs, SANs, and WLANs. << Previous: Internet Connection Types Next Video: Network Tools >>

There are many ways to connect to the Internet. In this video, you’ll learn about satellite connections, fiber links, broadband cable, DSL, cellular options, and WISPs. << Previous: Assigning IP Addresses Next Video: Network Types >>

Assigning an IP address may take a number of different strategies to make the process automatic and scalable. In this video, you’ll learn about the most important aspects of configuring an IP address, the differences between static and dynamic IP addressing, and how APIPA can be used when a DHCP server is not available. <<

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the most popular protocol on the Internet. In this video, you’ll learn about IPv4 address structures, public IP addresses, private IP address ranges, and IPv6 address structures. << Previous: Network Devices Next Video: Assigning IP Addresses >>

A data center contains uses many different network devices to keep the data flowing. In this video, you’ll learn about routers, unmanaged and managed switches, access points, patch panels, firewalls, power over Ethernet, cable and DSL modems, ONTs, and NICs. << Previous: VLANs and VPNs Next Video: IPv4 and IPv6 >>

We can provide network protection and segmentation through the use of virtual local area networks (VLANs) and virtual private networks (VPNs). In this video, you’ll learn about separating broadcast domains into separate VLANs, and how remote connectivity can be protected through the use of encrypted client-to-site or site-to-site VPNs. << Previous: DHCP Next Video: Network
