d. Discussion
System Configuration
System Configuration is the way a system is set up. It is the collection of components that
make up the system. Configuration can refer to either hardware or software, or the
combination of both. For instance, a typical configuration for a PC consists of 2MB
(megabytes) main memory, a hard disk, a modem, a CD-ROM drive, a VGA monitor, and
the Windows Operating System. Many software products require that the computer has a
certain minimum configuration. For example, the software might require a graphics
display monitor and a video adapter, a particular microprocessor, and a minimum amount
of main memory capacity.

When you install a new device or program, you sometimes need to configure it, which
means that you need to set various switches and jumpers (for hardware) and to define
values of parameters (for software). For example, the device or program may need to
 know what type of video adapter you have and what type of printer is connected to the
computer.

Network Configuration

Network configuration is the process of setting a network's controls, flow and operation to
support the network communication of an organization and/or network owner. This broad
term incorporates multiple configuration and setup processes on network hardware,
software and other supporting devices and components.

All network configuration approaches require the presence of various forms of hardware
and software. The hardware serves as the frame for the network, effectively creating the
basis for the overall structure. Software applications that are compatible with one another
and with the hardware are uploaded and installed, an action that initiates activity on the
network, allowing for the efficient storage and retrieval of all types of data.

IP Address

An IP address is a number that is used to identify a device on the network. Each device on
a network must have a unique IP address to communicate with other network devices.
Network devices are those that move data across the network, including hubs, switches,
and routers. On a LAN, each host (device that sends or receives information on the
network) and network device must have an IP address within the same network to be able
to communicate with each other.

A person’s name and fingerprints usually do not change. They provide a label or address
for the person’s physical aspect—the body. A person’s mailing address, on the other hand,
relates to where the person lives or picks up mail. This address can change.

On a host, the Media Access Control (MAC) address is assigned to the host Network
Interface Card (NIC) and is known as the physical address. The physical address remains
the same regardless of where the host is placed on the network in the same way that
fingerprints remain with someone regardless of where he or she goes.

An IP address consists of a series of 32 binary bits (1s and 0s). It is very difficult for
humans to read a binary IP address. For this reason, the 32 bits are grouped into four 8-bit
bytes called octets. An IP address, even in this grouped format, is hard for humans to read,
write, and remember. Therefore, each octet is presented as its decimal value, separated by
a decimal point or period. This format is called dotted-decimal notation. When a host is
configured with an IP address, it is entered as a dotted-decimal number, such as
192.168.1.5.

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask indicates the network portion of an IP address. Like the IP address, the
subnet mask is a dotted-decimal number. Usually, all hosts within a LAN use the same
subnet mask.

 255.0.0.0: Class A, which indicates that the first octet of the IP address is the
network portion.
 255.255.0.0: Class B, which indicates that the first two octets of the IP address are
the network portion.
 255.255.255.0: Class C, which indicates that the first three octets of the IP address
are the network portion.

e. Generalization
 System Configuration is the way a system is set up. It is the collection of
components that make up the system.
  Network configuration is the process of setting a network's controls, flow and
operation to support the network communication of an organization and/or
network owner.
 An IP address is a number that is used to identify a device on the network. Each
device on a network must have a unique IP address to communicate with other
network devices.
 The subnet mask indicates the network portion of an IP address. Like the IP
address, the subnet mask is a dotted-decimal number.
