Communication Communication has four components: sender, receiver, message, and medium. In networks, devices and application tasks and processes communicate messages to each other over media. They represent the sender and receivers. The data they send is the message. The cabling or transmission method they use is the medium.

Connection In networking, two devices establish a connection to communicate with each other.

DHCP

Developed by Microsoft, DHCP (Dynamic Host

 

Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning

 

dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With

 

dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP

 

address every time it connects to the network. In some

 

systems, the device's IP address can even change while

 

it is still connected. It also supports a mix of static and

 

dynamic IP addresses. This simplifies the task for

 

network administrators because the software keeps track

 

of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to

 

manage the task. A new computer can be added to a

 

network without the hassle of manually assigning it a

 

unique IP address. DHCP allows the specification for the

 

service provided by a router, gateway, or other network

 

device that automatically assigns an IP address to any

 

device that requests one.

DNS

Domain Name System is an Internet service that

 

translates domain names into IP addresses. Since

 

domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to

 

remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP

 

addresses every time you use a domain name the DNS

 

will translate the name into the corresponding IP

 

address. For example, the domain name

 

www.network_camera.com might translate to

 

192.167.222.8.
