A communication infrastructure
Usefulness is in exchanging information
“On-line interactive communities... will be communities not of
common location, but of common interest.... the total number
of users...will be large enough to support extensive general
purpose [computers]. All of these will be interconnected by
telecommunications channels... [to] constitute a labile network
of networks--ever changing in both content and configuration.”

The Basic Communication Link
 Dial-up telephone line,
 A circuit is temporarily established
between caller and callee
 Analog medium (analog signals)
 Requires modem at both ends to transmit
information produced by a computer
Computer produces digital information

Ethernet


Bob Metcalfe at Xerox PARC
Used for local area networks (LANs)



Physically near one another
200 computers within 100 meters
Broadcast medium

Single wire connects all computers



Each computer has unique 48-bit MAC address
All computers constantly listen
“Carrier Sense, Multiple Access with Collision Detect”


Sender waits until wire unused before sending
If hears collision, stops, waits random time, retransmits
Ethernet
Ethernet Variations
Ethernet Properties





Shared
Distributed (not Centralized)
Insecure
Unpredictable Latency & Bandwidth
But it works!

Under light load (<30%), appears to be point-topoint
Alternative to Ethernet:
Token Ring


Alternative introduced by IBM (1980s)
“Passing the Conch Shell”
Wide Area Networks
 To connect across town, country, ocean
 Dedicated point-to-point lines
 Expensive.
 By major service providers (SP)
 Users buy services from SP
 Uses different protocol:

nodes in the network, regardless of where
they are located
