Lesson 1.3 SOHO Networks

The OSI model involves quite a lot of abstraction. As a practical example, it is worth examining how a basic network is implemented. In this topic, you will describe the connection and configuration options for components within a typical small office/home office (SOHO) router. You will also explore some of the organizations responsible for managing the Internet and the various numbering schemes used for network address notation.

As you study this lesson, answer the following questions: 

  • What separate functions are packed into a typical SOHO router appliance?
  • How are Internet services provisioned and managed?
  • What types of numbering schemes are used to represent network addresses?
