TLE-12 Q1 LAS CSS Wk1Day1

Network operating systems provide the underlying platform for both individual computers and interconnected networks. They control hardware and software, allow computers to share resources and data, and establish communication between networked computers. Key features include supporting basic operating functions like processors and protocols, security features like user authentication and access controls, enabling networking functions like file sharing and backups, and providing an administrative interface for network management.

Features of Network Operating Systems

A network operating system is a software application that provides a platform for both the
functionality of an individual computer and for multiple computers within an
interconnected network. Basically, a network operating system controls other software and
computer hardware to run applications, share resources, protect data and establish
communication. Individual computers run client operating systems, while network systems
create the software infrastructure for wireless, local and wide area networks to function.

Basic Operating Features


Network operating systems support the basic underlying operating features of networks.
These include support for processors and the various protocols that allow computers to
share data. Many network operating systems can detect hardware within the system to
allow for asset discovery within the network. Also, network operating systems support the
processing of other software applications that run on both individual computers and within
the network.

Security Features
Network operating systems support a number of security features that control access to the
network. These include authorization and permission for access to the network, with
specific control of features such as user management, log-on controls and passwords.
Systems also provide access control for features such as remote access and network
monitoring.

Networking
A network operating system is the platform on which computer networking takes place.
Basic features allow for file, print and Internet connections. Data backup and replication
functions are controlled through the network operating system. The management of
connective systems for local and wide area networks (LANs and WANs), such as routing,
switches and other ports are configured and managed through network operating system
features.

Administrative Interface
One of the features of a network operating system is that it has an administrative interface
that allows a network administrator to monitor and maintain the system. This interface will
have a menu that allows the administrator to perform functions such as formatting hard
drives and setting up security protocols for both the system and individual users. He can
also and configure security and data backup requirements for individual computers or the
network as a whole.
