    LAN
        Local Area Networks
        A network connecting a group of devices in a “local” area, usually within the same building.
        These connections are generally powered through the use of Ethernet cables,
            which have length limitations, as the speed of the connection will degrade beyond a certain length.

        A WLAN, or wireless LAN, is a subtype of LAN. It uses WiFi to make the LAN wireless through the use of a wireless router.
    WAN
        Wide Area Networks
        covering any distance neccessary like internet

    MAN
        metropolitan area network
        These can cover an area as large as a city, linking multiple LANs through a wired backhaul.
            Citywide Wifi network
    SAN
        System Area Networks
        high-performance, connection-oriented network that can link a cluster of computers

Physical Layer
    handles the transmission of raw bits over a communication link

Data Link Layer
    collects a stream of bits called "frame"

Network Layer
    exchange "packet" btw nodes

Transport Layer
    implements a process to process channel
    exchange "message"

Session & Presentation
    provides a name space that is used to tie together
        & format of data exchanged btw peers

Application Layer
    standardize common type of exchanges

Application Programming Interface
    sockets
        originally provided by Unix / C

        Interface btw an application and network
            create socket
            attach a socket to the network
            send and recv
            close socket
        
        Server
            bind connection settings
            wait for listen
            Performed after accept connection

        Client
            connect connect
        

 Bandwidth
    width of the frequency band
    number of bits per sec

    1Mbps: 1 * 10^6 = 1 * 2^20
        <--> 1 * 10^(-6) seconds to transmit each bit
                = 1 microsec wide

Latency = Propagation + transmit + queue + processing
    propagation = distance / speed of light
    Transmit = size / bandwidth

Throughput = TransferSize / Transfer Time

Circuit Switching
    telephone
    Physical layer technology

Packet Switching
    datagram: indendent, Internet
        connectionless
        mostly used on network layer
        Route allocation according to routing table and forwarding table at any time

    virtual circuit switching
        connection-oriented
        VCI: Virtual Circuit Indetifier
        permanent VC: stay connected
        Switched VC: Assigned by connection
        new connection --> new VCI
