1. What is a hub?

In networking, a hub is a device that connects multiple computers in a local


area network (LAN). It receives data packets from one device and
broadcasts it to all other devices connected to the hub.
2. Define the following.

Modem
A modem is a hardware component that allows a computer or other device
to connect to the Internet. It converts analog signals (from telephone or
cable wires) into digital data (1s and 0s) that a computer can recognize.
Similarly, it converts digital data from a computer into an analog signal for
transmission over standard telephone lines.
Router
A router connects two or more IP networks or sub networks. It manages
traffic by forwarding data packets to their intended IP addresses and allows
multiple devices to share the same Internet connection. Routers typically
pass data between local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks
(WANs).
Bridge
A bridge in a computer network is a device used to connect multiple LANs
together with a larger Local Area Network (LAN). The mechanism of
network aggregation is known as bridging. The bridge is a physical or
hardware device
3. Differentiate between client and servers.
Client:
A client is a computer or device that requests services or resources from a
server.
Clients are typically end-user devices like laptops, smartphones, or tablets.
Clients rely on servers to provide them with data, files, or services.
Examples of clients include web browsers, email apps, and gaming consoles.
Server:
A server is a computer or device that provides services or resources to
clients.
Servers are powerful computers designed to store, process, and deliver data
or services to clients.
Servers respond to client requests, such as serving web pages, storing files,
or hosting applications.
Examples of servers include web servers, file servers, and email servers.
Understanding the Connection between
I. Remembering SDGs and Network Topology:

 Explain the importance of technology, connectivity,


and network topology in advancing the SDGs.
 Showcase examples of how networks and digital in-
frastructure can support initiatives related to educa-
tion, healthcare, environmental conservation, etc.

II.Understanding
Give two advantages of star topology.

Easy to Troubleshoot:
In a star network, if one device encounters a problem, it does not affect the
rest of the network. This makes troubleshooting and identifying issues much
simpler as they are localized to individual connections.
Scalability and Performance:
Star topology allows for easy scalability by adding more devices to the
network without affecting the overall performance. Each device connects
directly to the central hub, ensuring efficient data transmission and minimal
network congestion.

UAE National Identity and Computer Networks

Objective:

 Students will investigate the role of computer networks and


communication technologies in preserving and promoting the
national identity of the UAE.
