As an everyday IT student, I came up with the question why Internet was so Important to us? How does a computer network can receive data from other network? And what was really happening to the information we are working with in a computer network? And then because of the video clip titled the warriors of the net also known as the dawn of the net, give answer to my questions. Because the video were discussing clearly, systematically, and easily the cycle of Information we are working thin a computer network.The characters involved on that movie are the data circulating inside a network which are the TCP packet, IGMP ping packet, UDP packet, router, ping of death, router switch, network routes , firewall and of course the net and they are being animated so that the video clip turns the whole discussion more visible to me. The introduction takes my attention, it says "For the first time in history people and machinery are working together, realizing a dream.
A uniting force that knows no geographical boundaries.Without regard to race, creed or color. A new era where communication truly brings people together. " The quotation was trying to tell us that with the help of this kind of machinery, our communication between each one of us are much easier because of them. And another question came in my mind.
How is it possible that we are able to communicate from a far distant location through the use of our computers? Well it Is possible The clip shows how the process are done. Let's say I'm using a web browser and I'm typing the site Google. M on the address bar, when I hit enter ,the flow of information begins. And this information is what we called the packets or data and they are delivered by a personal mailbox (the packet packages) .
Before the information was sent on Its way to the network. The sender's address, receiver's address. Proxy server address and the type of packet containing the information is modified and attached together in a packet and take a network path to deliver. Just like in real life, sometimes there are road accidents that causes traffic.That traffic is mainly the reason why there are interruption on receiving data from the Internet and also that Is the reason why we are experiencing some information fails from the internet.
Just like delay movement on a WebMD , grungy noise on head phones . The data are being transfer into other network by the router and the router switch to their designated path. As when the data arrives on its destination, there goes the proxy server that lessen the load of the Internet connection and also for some security reason.The packets are screened to identify whether the information contained is a threat or is blocked. This is why sometimes we are unable to access a website since its packet is destroyed by the router or the firewall. As the packets on the video clip passed the computer firewall, I am amazed when I saw the world of Internet that Is like a spider web with Interconnected networks on our entire globe.
And I realized that is the reason why it is called world wide web.And then still, even if there are millions of interconnected network links n our globe, our data sent on the Internet are delivered on a specific server but sometimes our packets are being trap because of the police of each host called the ping of death. Imagine how fast this packets sent and receive in seconds from a very far distant location on our globe. This is the Just a simple reason why the internet are very Important on us.
Walt Just a Tee Links AT an eye, our request are sent Ana exchange with information we wanted. That video clip helps me a lot to understand how an internet works.
