Can you network 2 different windows operating systems together?
Yes, you can have different versions of Windows join a network together. For example, Windows XP and Windows 7 can commune together happily in the Windows Workgroup world. It may just take some finagling of security options, especially on shared folders to make Windows 7 show the files to Windows XP but that is easily accomplished.
As for not being able to open or use certain types of data due to one OS being older than the other, other than Microsoft refusing to let Windows XP be able to install MS Office 2013, I haven't run into that problem yet. Besides, any MS Office 2013 document can be opened by any installation of MS Office 2010 and 2010 works just fine under Windows XP.
So, if you need to network various versions of Windows together, go ahead and do so. If you need any assistance on getting some aspect of the network to work the way you have planned, drop me a line and I will see what I can do to help.
How do you enter ntp server information on a router?
If your router supports NTP-server configuration, the spesifics should be described in the manual. Often the manual can be found on the internet by searching for Manufacturer Model User Guide. Most routers have web-based configuration: You simply connect your PC to it and enter http://192.168.1.1 (or your routers IP-address*) in your browser, and you will get a login-page. Enter the admin user name and password** for your router. Now you are logged in as administrator of your router. Find the link for the time settings-page and see what is available there. Some routers like Apple AirPorts etc don't use web-interface. There you use the Airport Admin utility *What IP-number to use? Find the IP-number for the router your computer is connected to in it's internet settings. 198.162.1.1 and 10.0.0.1 are common. Try your computer's IP-number except with a 1 as last digit. **No password? Don't log in or reset anything if it is not your router! Try admin / admin or admin and empty password if you don't remember the password (or read the manual about first login. Or about factory reset to erase all settings including password.
Do you need a static ip address for port forwarding to work?
Short answer... yes.
There is a different method - however i will have to update this at another time. sorry.
But if you were just looking for a yes or no answer, then the answer is yes.
"that is, the most logical and efficient way for port forwarding"
Difference between osi layer and isdn layer?
ISDN make a separation between user data and voice,in ISDN there are two type of channels, D Channels and B channel, there ability is different, in bandwidth and they have different type of combination, D channel has 16 Kbps bit and it used for controlling, but B channel have 64 Kbps its used for actual transfer of user data many variation of combination between D and B channels but the basic equation where (2B+d) which means too data channel plus one control and that known as BRI (basic Rate Interface) its normally user for home uses, another combination is PRI (Primary Rate Interface) which use more than two B channel plus single D channel this type used for business solution, There are different combination to these channels in most of countries like in Europe they make combination on B+D equivalent to E1(2048)Mbps, in US Equivalent to T1 (1.544 )Mbps, but in OSI this is the responsibility of transport layer to recognize the physical capacity and isolate that from upper layers by making framing to big amount of data to smaller one and put controls to let image transport layer in destination notice that, OSI have seven layer, and all those layer are active instead ISDN is reach only third Layer (network layer), OSI is connection less protocol and it depends in HDLC which is packet protocol technique, instead ISDN built up X.25 which is connection oriented in sense of VC (virtual circuit), ISDN basically make a distinction between user data and voice cause is based on subscriber or telephony system, but OSI make mixture of data stream by using transport layer and it manage to hide the l, in than layer there is a multiplexing process for session layer to make all those distinct process (user application) transfer in one virtual connection and to be controlled via transport layer. ISDN (RM) have thee palnes user managment and control palnes but OSI (RM) have only one planes user palne in ISDN equivelant to signaling use plane in OSI , manament and those are the basic deference's
RM= Reference Model.
Major classes of assignable IP addresses?
there are 5 classes of IP address, the classes differ on the size of netid and hostid
We can identify the class by its first value
ex- 100.67.88.55 belongs to class A
class A : 0-127
class B: 128-191
class C: 192-223
class D: 224-239
class E: 240-255
the 1 bits
Yes you can but it would be more cost effective to use 1 router (downstairs) and a network switch upstairs as each router will typically support up to 255 connected devices.
Compare and contrast lan-wan-can-man-han?
LAN stands for Local Area Network. It often refers to an internal, usually private, network. LAN is a very broad term.
WAN stands for Wide Area Network. It is often used to describe the internet.
CAN usually stands for Campus Area Network. It is sometimes used to describe a network at a university or other college. It is also sometimes used to describe a corporate network that spans two or more buildings.
MAN stands for a Metropolitan Area Network. It is used to describe a network, usually wireless, that spans several blocks. Often installed by cities who would benefit from having devices constantly connected to their respective servers and companies who strike deals with the city.
HAN stands for a Home Area Network. As the name implies, it is a slightly more definitive type of LAN. Used for describing residential home networks.
CAN, MAN and HAN are not used often. LAN is almost always used to describe a network.
How do you port forwarding for ip3 net access x series?
Some wireless routers can do that. So if you have one, read the manual.
Why is on-board LAN not working for dial-up connection?
The LAN port is not used for a dial-up connection. A modem is used for a dial-up connection.
What is computer applications?
Computer applications are basically programs or software which perform a function. An examples is Microsoft Word, which is a word processing program or application. All types of applications are being created everyday. The small programs which run on mobile devices are called "apps" which is just short form for applications. These apps are specially designed to run on those devices.
How do you Enable Ethernet and telephone to be transmitted over the same Cat 5 cable?
Ethernet network traffic on a cat 5 cable only uses 4 wires of the 8 in the cable. Telephone voice transmission only uses 2 wires. Therefore, you can take any 2 of the unused network wires (pins 4 or 5, 7 or 8) and use it for voice. You would then have both data and voice transmission in the same cable.
Difference between CAN and LIN communication protocol?
Can is two wired while LIN is single wire protocol.
Can is costly than LIN.
Can needs synchronization But LIN is self synchronizing by sending 0x55.
What are two ways that a network host determines the IP address of its default gateway?
The two ways are static addressing, which means typing it all in by hand, and dynamic addressing, which allows a server program on the system to automatically pass out all the IP information at start-up or at the time that object connects to the network.
Is the flow of data more efficient in a client server network or peer-to-peer network?
Does a Bear **** in the woods.
Why star topology is the best topology for school?
A school would have a large network enterprise. A lot of students and staff members would be trying to use the network from all over the school. A database would be recommended to be in the center of the enterprise for easier access for users.
What version of NAT maps a single routable IP address to a single network node?
Jillian Schamloefell! Alas I cannot find the answer.
