FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -Ethernet is a network standard that specifies no central computer or device on the network should control when data can be transmitted. Based on a bus topology, but can be wired in a star pattern.

Detailed explanation-2: -TOKEN RING The token ring standard specifies that computers and devices on the network share or pass a special signal, called a token, in a unidirectional manner and in a preset order. A token is a special series of bits that function like a ticket. The device with the token can transmit data over the network.

Detailed explanation-3: -A server controls access to the hardware, software, and other resources on the net-work and provides a centralized storage area for programs, data, and information. The clients are other computers and mobile devices on the network that rely on the server for its resources.

Detailed explanation-4: -It uses a method of accessing the network called Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD), in which each computer monitors the network to ensure that no one else is sending data along the same line of cabling.

Detailed explanation-5: -LAN (local area network): A LAN connects computers over a relatively short distance, allowing them to share data, files, and resources. For example, a LAN may connect all the computers in an office building, school, or hospital.
