Computer Network Concepts for Beginners

About the Book

This book is the outcome of our teaching this course for fifteen years. We felt that students fail to learn practical components of Computer Networking so we started with introduction of Network topology and various components of computer networks. We commence with PhonePe App which has a kind of usage that is used for computer networking concepts, to communicate with bank servers. Although, mobile phone is a wireless device, in the background it is uses all principles of TCP/IP protocol suite. To understand IoT (Internet of Things), we have to learn TCP-IP protocol suite and computer networking.
