Connecting to the Internet through
an ISP
Objectives
• Explain what the Internet is and how we connect to
it using an ISP
• Explain how information is sent across the Internet
through an ISP
• Describe & identify the components of an ISP
Network Operations Center
• Identify the different types of cables and connectors
for connecting the devices in the NOS
• Construct & terminate twisted pair cables and
determine the type of cable needed
What this Chapter is About…
• Every day people are online
• We need to communicate
• Internet Service Providers (ISP)
▫ Make this possible
▫ Web of service providers
• You’ll see:
▫ Why ISP’s are necessary
▫ The Network Operations Centers
What is the Internet?
• Worldwide collection of computer networks,
cooperating with each other to exchange
information using common standards
▫ Network of networks that connects users in every
country in the world
• Do this through:
▫ Wireless, fiber, telephone lines, satellite & more
The Internet
• Who owns it?
▫ No one
• What allows computers
to communicate?
▫ Protocols
• There are several
organizations that help
manage it
▫ Standards
▫ Addressing
Imagine…
• What would the Internet be like if no organization
granted domain names?
▫ Might have 1000 www.nintendo.com sites
• What other areas did standards help in?
▫ Mobile web (other browsers)
▫ Any device with browser can access Internet
▫ Use of various devices to access web
Internet Organizations
• ISOC Internet Society
▫ Central leadership organization
• IETF Internet Engineering Task Force
▫ Proposes solutions to Internet problems
▫ Recommends protocol standards
• IRTF Internet Research Task Force
▫ Researches future of Internet
▫ How to handle transmissions during disaster
• IANA Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
▫ Bookkeeper of who addresses are assigned to
ISP’s
• What’s an ISP?
▫ Company that provides
connections & support
to access the Internet
• You MUST go through
an ISP to get on the
Internet
• Name yours & others
ISP Services
• What other services do ISP’s provide?
▫
▫
▫
▫
Internet access
Domain name registration
Web hosting
Transit to all over
• Internet is a series of ISP’s connected to one another
Connect to the ISP through POP
• Point of Presence
• Between your LAN & the ISP
• Where you get the ISP’s services- closest point of
connection

Review
1. Describe the Internet.
2. What does ISP stand for?
▫
Internet Service Provider

▫
Provides connection to the Internet
4. What is the connection point between the ISP and
your LAN?
▫
POP
Options for Connecting to the ISP
•
•
•
•
•
Dial-up- slowest, telephone lines
Cell Phone Modem- decently fast
DSL- high speed over phone lines
Cable Modem- high speed over cable lines
Leased Line- high speed over dedicated digital lines, for
businesses, T1
• Satellite- medium speeds
Connecting to the ISP
• Modem is used to connect to ISP
• You may have an ISR to connect multiple computers
to the modem
ISP Service Levels
• Home Service
▫
▫
▫
▫
Slower speed
Less expensive
Less web space
Fewer email addresses
• Business Class
▫
▫
▫
▫
▫
Faster speed
More expensive
More web space
More email addresses
SLA (Service Level Agreements)
 Network availability terms
 Service response time
 Link
Data
• Data is uploaded or downloaded
▫ Define each
• There are two types of services for data transfer
▫ Usually home is different than business
Asymmetric Service
• Download transfer rate is
different from upload rate
▫ Common in homes, most Internet
users
▫ Download is faster
Symmetric Service
• Download transfer rate is same
as upload rate
▫ Common in businesses or hosting
servers
▫ Great for uploading lots of video,
data, graphics
Which ISP?
End of Day One
Activity
• Handout Research
• Go home & test your speed HW!
• http://www.speedtest.net
Review
1. Name some features that a business class ISP
service would offer that home service does not.
2. Describe asymmetric service.
3. Describe symmetric service.
4. What is a POP?
▫
Connection between LAN & ISP
5. What’s the high speed links that connect ISPs
called?
▫
Backbone
The Importance of IP
• Internet Protocol
▫ IP carries what you do on the Internet
 With others, like TCP/IP
▫ Uses packets to carry data
▫ MUST have source & destination IP address in packet
▫ Routers read them
IP Packet
• Header contains the IP addresses & control info for
routers
▫ Sometimes called a datagram
• IP addresses MUST be unique
• ISP gets blocks of addresses from Internet Registry
▫ Then they manage & split them up
How an ISP handles Packets
• Message is divided into smaller packets
▫ 64-1500 bytes
▫ Downloading a 1 MB song requires over 600 packets of 1500
bytes each
• ISP determines whether packet is for local ISP service
or for remote network
NOC
• Controls traffic flow
▫ Uses destination IP
▫ Passes from router to router
• Has services (web hosting, email)
NOC- Monitoring
NOC- AT &T Monitoring
Network Utilities- Ping
• Ping
▫ End-to-end
connectivity
▫ Round trip time
▫ ICMP echo request
Network Utilities- Traceroute
• Traces path from source
to destination
• Displays each hop
• Shows where problem
is
• In windows, tracert
Traceroute
• http://visualroute.visualware.com/
Activities
• Packet Tracer 4.2.3.2- Observe Packet Travel
• Lab 4.2.3.3- Use ping, traceroute, visual traceroute
and whois to check connectivity and IP addresses
and learn more about how packets travel through
the Internet.
Review
The Internet Cloud- 4.3.1
• Many routes to a destination
▫ Bad router- take the back road!
• Cloud represents Internet or another network
Devices in the Cloud
• More than just routers in cloud
• Technology at home must match tech at ISP
▫ DSL connects to a DSLAM (access multiplexer)
▫ Cable Modem connects to a CMTS (termination
system)
▫ Analog dial-up modem access
▫ Wireless access
Devices in the Cloud
Devices in the Cloud- At ISP
• Must have equipment to connect to other ISPs
• Must handle lots of traffic, near 100% uptime,
redundant
Activity- NOC Equipment
Review
1. A DSLAM is needed at the ISP for which technology?
▫
DSL
2. What does DSL stand for?
▫
Digital Subscriber Line
3. A CMTS is needed for which technology?
▫
Cable Modem
4. What do you need to connect to the Internet?
▫
IP Address, default Gateway, connection to a
network, and an ISP to connect you
ISP Equipment Requirements
• Servers to provide services
▫ Need steady, reliable power
▫ UPS
ISP Equipment Requirements
• Air & humidity levels
• Cable management
▫ Protect from damage & kept organized
Review
Common Network Cables
• What’s another name for cable?
▫ Medium
▫ Channel
• Copper
• Fiber Optic
• Wireless
Network Cables We’ll Discuss
Twisted Pair Cabling
•
•
•
•
Electricity over the copper wires
Pairs twisted inside jacket
Can get EMI
Crosstalk on long runs
▫ Signal jump cables
▫ Cat 5 has 3-4 twists per inch
▫ Makes it more resistant to interference
Kinds of Twisted Pair
• UTP
▫
▫
▫
▫
Electricity
Inexpensive
Easy to install
4 pairs of wires, color
coded
▫ RJ45 connector
• Cat 5 & 5e
▫ 100 & 1000Mbps
• Cat 6
▫ 1000Mbps & higher
Review
1. What connector is on UTP?
▫
RJ45
2. What is the high speed links called that connect
ISPs?
▫
Backbone
3. A router, switch & access point all in one is called
what?
▫
ISR
Coax Cable
•
•
•
•
Transmits electricity
Better shielding than UTP
Harder to install than UTP
ISP uses these for CMTS
Fiber Optic Cables
• Transmits pulses of light
• Used in big environments
• Glass or plastic
▫ No EMI
• High speed
▫ LAN backbone
▫ Connect ISP to Internet
• 2 fibers
▫ Transmit & receive
Fiber Optic Cables
• Multimode
▫ Less $, used more
▫ Used in LANs/Campuses
 2000 meters
▫ LED
▫ Many paths of light
• Single Mode
▫ More $, faster speed
▫ Connects backbone/NOCs
 3000 meters
▫ LED laser
▫ Single path of light
Activity- Fiber or UTP?
Cabling Standards
• Specs for installing & testing cable
▫
▫
▫
▫
▫
▫
Pinouts (order of wires)
Wire sizes
Shielding
Cable lengths
Connector types
Performance limits
UTP Cables
• TIA/EIA
▫ 568A
▫ 568B
Straight-Through Cable
• 568B to 568B
• Connect unlike devices
▫ Computer to Hub/Switch
▫ Switch to router port
• On the PC NIC
▫ Pins 1 & 2 transmit
▫ Pins 3 & 6 receive
Crossover Cable
• 568A to 568B

Terminating
• Patch Panel
▫ Switchboard
▫ Quickly
rearrange
▫ RJ45
• Jacks
Lab
• Terminate to a jack
Testing Cables
• Open
▫ Wire not in connector
▫ Break in wire
• Short
▫ Copper touches another
• Reversed Pair
• Split Pair
Other Tests- Degradation
• Attenuation
▫ Measure of signal strength
▫ If message fades at destination, will not be understood
• Crosstalk
▫ Signal leaks onto another pair of wires
▫ Can happen if cables are not terminated properly or
low quality connectors
Cabling Best Practices- Yes or No
• Cable Management
▫ Keeps wires neat & organized to easily find problems
▫ Protected from damage
Review
• Which cable would you use:
▫ In your house?
 UTP
▫ Between buildings?
 Fiber
▫ To your cable modem?
 Coax
▫ Where you get a lot of EMI?
 Coax or fiber, NOT UTP!!
