What is the color layout for a a cross over cable?
Std. or straight-through Ethernet cable, by 568b specs, is Or/Wh, Or, Gr/Wh, Bl, Bl/Wh, Gr, Br/Wh,Br. Both ends.
Crossover is standard on one end, but Gr/Wh, Gr, Or/Wh, Bl, Bl/Wh, Or, Br/Wh, Br. You are crossing your transmit pair with your receive pair. Some sources would have you cross the other two pairs, as well, but it's not necessary.
Or = Orange, Wh = White, Bl = Blue, Gr = Green, Br = Brown.
How do you disable Internet Connection Sharing?
Start->Control Panel->Network Connections->Local Area Connection (Wireless Connection if you have any), right click->Properties, in the "This connection uses the following items" locate and left click "File and Printer Sharing...". Uncheck it. Hit ok. You might have to restart the system before it starts to work. Also it's recommended to disable file sharing in the windows firewall settings.
What does a client server network provide and how does it work?
The Client is the computer or device requesting data from the Server, which is a computer hosting the data. It works through a network protocol, more than likely TCP/IP.
What is the best topology for a cyber cafe?
The best topology for a cyper cafe is Bas topology. hope it helps
Do routers control IP addressing?
The answer to this question will depend to some extent on what you are calling a router and the function that the 'router' is being used for.
Originally in computer networking the function of a 'router' was simply to route packets of data between two different networks, typically when these were using different networking protocols. In this usage the router only controls the flow of the data packets based on the IP address of the destination, it does not control the addresses themselves.
In modern usage the term 'router' has come to be applied to a much more complex device, commonly used at home, to run a small home network and to connect this home network to the Internet. These devices contain (primarily) a real router as above and also a network server. In this role one of the functions of the server component of the router is to assign the IP addresses to each of the devices on the home network as they connect to it. So, in this usage - yes the router controls IP addressing. This function is called DHCP or "dynamic host configuration protocol"
You can configure most routers to function as a DHCP server, or turn it off. Most routers have this turned on as default.
You have to include the two statements ...
What is the valid IP host for the network ID 190.254.0.0?
If you aren't subnetting, then the host range for this network would be:
190.254.0.0 - 190.254.255.255
The above shows the IP address range, but not all addresses would be usable (mostly the first and the last addresses would probably be not assignable to a device).
That is a peer to peer network.
The router will install both routes in the routing table and load balance between the two.
How does a virtual LAN differ from a physical LAN?
A local area network (LAN) is a computer network that interconnects computers in a limited area such as a home, school, computer laboratory, or office building.
Traditional network designs focus on physical locations of equipment and personnel for addressing and LAN segment placement. Because of this there are a few significant drawbacks:
1.Network segments for physically disjointed organizations cannot be part of the same address space. Each physical location must be addressed independently, and be part of its own broadcast domain. This can force personnel to be located in a central location, or to have additional latency or connectivity shortfalls.
2· Relocations of personnel and departments can become difficult, especially if the original location retains its network segments. Relocated equipment will have to be reconfigured based on the new network configuration
To overcome this the VLAN concept came in. If you see correctly VLAN is a LAN with high flexibility as it is virtual
No, Windows normally assumes that the network uses DHCP and it attempts to find a DHCP server on the network. If it cannot find one it will eventually assign a 169.x.x.x address but it will not assign the gateway or the DNS addresses when it assigns the 169.x.x.x address.
A WPAN ( wireless personal area network) is a low range wireless network which covers an area of only a few dozens of meters. this kind of networks generally used for connecting devices like printers, mobile phones, PDA to a computer or just two nearby computers without using wires.
What are two switching functions of a router?
The router encapsulates the packet in the appropriate data link frame type for the outgoing data link.
The router determines the exit interface after data encapsulation.
It's the wire that connects your mouse to your computer. The wiring that goes from your computer mouse to the back of the computer or the usb port depending on the gae of the computer and mouse.
IMAP is short for Internet Message Access Protocol. IMAP is a mail retrieval protocol that was developed as a more sophisticated alternative to POP3 . POP3 Stands for post office protocol and was used earlier.
How do you make your local area connection a wireless connection from one laptop to the next?
You have to activate Ad Hoc on your wireless network card. This can easily be done in "Network settings", and will create a secondary network that will automatically (if not turned off) distribute your internet connection. If you want to share local files over this network you might have to turn this setting on manually, which is done via the settings of Network Sharing. All these features are found under "Control Panel" in Windows.
What Are The Most Appropriate Network Operating Systems for client-server and peer-to-peer networks?
The question does not fully make sense , but as far as I understood - any unix based OS is good for you.
What is a computer network defined as?
computer network is the interconnected collection of autonomous computers & they are able to exchange information
Can you identify the advantages of using network address translation NAT in a network?
Internal addresses are hidden from external networks
A company needs fewer registered IP addresses to access the Internet
TCP and UDP are considered transport protocols (layer 4 of the OSI model). They were developed in conjunction with IP (routing - layer 3). Since they were developed together they were also designed to function together.
Well the above answer is not up to the mark.
Tcp is combined with ip because of following reason:-
TCP in TCP/IP ensures that data is broken into packets and provides surety of end to end transmission .
While IP in TCP/IP uniquely identifies the hosts on the network .
So combining the both protocols ensures that data is transferred completely and among right hosts
What three layers does the coaxial cable have?
The coaxial cable I use has at least four layers, sometimes more. At a minimum it has to have a core, a layer of insulation, the second conductor and a coating of another insulator. Better cables have another layer of insulation around the second conductor, a layer of shielding and then the final outside coating.

At http://windowsxp.mvps.org/ginadll.htm there is this article by one of Microsoft's MVPs. The article states (paraphrased):

"When you attempt to turn on Fast User Switching or Welcome Screen, you may receive a message stating that a program used CSGina.dll ( or any other DLL ginamsi.dll etc ) to disable the Fast User Switching and the Windows Welcome screen features. The exact error message follows: A recently installed program has disabled the Welcome screen and Fast User Switching. To restore these features, you must uninstall the program. The following file name might help you identify the program that made the change:

I just downloaded the ginadll.reg and it worked as described.
