What is a home network?
• According to Wikipedia: a network is “a collection of hardware components and computers interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information”.

What is a home network?
• According to Wikipedia: a network is “a collection of hardware components and computers interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information”.
• Plain English: computers, etc. connected together so you can share stuff between them

2 types – dynamic and staticStatic:• Address stays the same - may need this for some
devices (printers, etc)

Types of network addresses
2 types – dynamic and staticStatic:• Address stays the same - may need this for some
devices (printers, etc)• A little harder to set up• Think of it like a house
Dynamic:• Easiest to set up - a piece of equipment called a “router”
takes care of addresses (this is called DHCP).
