The Internet

Creation
Who? Why?
created in 1968 by Add A decentralized
a little bit of body text
Vint Cerf and Bob network to survive
Kahn nuclear disaster

Owners
The internet is owned in
a ton of tiny little pieces.
Not any one group owns
it all, but it it's backbone
is owned.
Packet
switching
cutting data into packets to
send along separate routes ,
and reassembling it on the
other side
Protocols
HTTP/HTTPS-Hypertext Transfer
Protocol, becomes HTTPS if a digital
certificate is provided and the
connection is made secure.
SMTP-is the protocol used for
sending e-mail over the Internet.
DHCP- a DHCP server can manage IP
settings for devices on a network, by
assigning IP addresses to the
devices.
TCP/IP-TCP has to do with the
verifying delivery of the packets. IP
refers to the moving of data packets
between nodes.
IPv4-32 bits long, has more than 4
billion combinations
IPv6-128 bits long, has undecillions
of combinations

Connections
Electricity Light Radio

Uses ethernet to Uses Fiber Optic Uses modems to

produce pulses of cables to send produce waves of
electricity forming flashes of light at data at a very short
a connection high speeds, with range, but with
between two no signal loss, quite high mobility
devices, at the while being very
expense of some expensive.
signal loss.

Redundancy
Have more than
enough paths in
order to transport
data faster and
avoid total failures.

Domain Name System

Domain Name Systems (DNS) are the
phonebook of the Internet. DNS WAN LAN
translates domain names to IP
addresses so browsers can load Internet
resources. Wide Area Local Area
DNS Spoofing is a form of hacking in Network
which corrupt Domain Name Networks Cover
Covers larger
System data is introduced into the DNS a smaller area,

return an incorrect IP address. This price of slower but have much
results in traffic being diverted to the
attacker's computer bitrates. higher bitrates.

Bandwidth is the amount of

data that can be transferred
from one point in a network
to another in a certain
amount of time. Bitrate is its
measure. Latency is a
measure of how long it takes
a system to respond to a
request
