Part 13 of Computer Networking Fundamentals: Virtual Private Networks (VPN)

Virtual Private Networks

At the end of this episode, I will be able to:

1. Identify and describe the characteristics and importance of VPNs.

Learner Objective: Identify and describe the characteristics and importance of VPNs

Description: In this episode, the learner will be introduced to virtual private networks or VPNs as well as the importance and attributes of this technology.

• Introduction to Network Infrastructure
  • Virtual Private Networks
    • A technology that allows for secure communications using public networks infrastructure
    • Tunneling Protocols -
      • Protocol - a set of rules for communications on a network
      • Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) - the oldest VPN tunneling protocol, while still in use, should be avoided due to vulnerabilities in the encryption and authentication.
      • Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)- a combination of Microsoft's PPTP and Cisco's Layer 2 Forwarding (L2F), is a complex VPN protocol that is commonly coupled with IPSec for strong encryption.
      • Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE)- an older encryption protocol used with dial-up connections and VPN technologies. This protocol is not considered to be secure and should be avoided where security is a concern.
      • IP Security (IPSec)
    • VPN Types
      • Remote Access VPN - connects remote users to the organization's network from any location
      • Site-to-site VPN - connects two local area networks together

Consider what it must have been like to be among the very first historians, not only practicing your art, but having to define it and its standards, as well. See how fundamental questions about writing history were answered by Herodotus, Thucydides, and Sima Qian.

Japan's second great wave of globalization, the subject of this lecture, stretched from the 1300s to the early 1600s. It's a fascinating period that includes competition with China's Ming dynasty; the new influence of the West (which brought with it guns and Christianity); and the rule of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Japan's most powerful warlord.

Part 0⁣5 of Computer Networking Fundamentals: Demarcs and Perimeter Networks

Demarcation and Perimeter Networks

At the end of this episode, I will be able to:

1. Describe the characteristics and importance of demarcation points and perimeter networks.

Learner Objective: Describe the characteristics and importance of demarcation points and perimeter networks.

Description: In this episode, the learner will explore what demarcation points and perimeter networks are as well as what the importance of these technologies are in networking.

• Introduction to Network Infrastructure
  • Demarcation point - The physical point that a carrier's network connection ends and a private network starts (think network boundaries). The term demarcation is often abbreviated demarc.
    • Types of demarcation points
      • Residential - These are utilized in homes, either at the first socket (typically the kitchen) or a junction box on the exterior of the house
      • Business - These demarcation points are either installed on the exterior of the building, or the carrier will install a specialized device within the interior of the building at a main distribution frame (think server closet/datacenter)
    • Demarcation wiring runs either overhead or underground
    • A demarc is important to understand in networks today as this marks the point of responsibility for networked components and service. The carrier's network up to the demarc is the responsibility of the carrier, however the demarc point that connect on the residential or business side is the responsibility of the subscriber.
    • Demarc connections can be fiber, coaxial or PSTN lines
  • Perimeter Network (Screened Subnets) - A logical boundary between a privately owned network and the Internet. There are other names for perimeter networks such as demilitarized zone (DMZ), screened subnet and edge network.
    • Purpose
      • Security - A companies internal network must remain secure and not allow public access. Most organizations will install security devices in the perimeter network to control the flow of inbound and outbound traffic such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems (IDSs), intrusion prevention systems, honeypots or devices called unified threat management systems (UTM) which combine all the previous devices' functionality into one centralized device.
