The Components of a Processing Unit
What is a mother board?
Mother board is a device that used as an interface between
all other components.
Most are housed inside of the system unit.

Connecting Networks
Repeater: physical layer
Bridge: data link layer
Router: network layer
Gateway: network layer and above.
Repeater
Copies bits from one network to another
Does not look at any bits
Allows the extension of a network beyond physical
length limitations
REPEATER
Bridge
Copies frames from one network to another
Can operate selectively - does not copy all frames (must
look at data-link headers).
Extends the network beyond physical length limitations.
BRIDGE
Router
Copies packets from one network to another.
Makes decisions about what route a packet should
take (looks at network headers).
ROUTER
ROUTER
Gateway
Operates as a router
Data conversions above the network layer.
Conversions:
encapsulation - use an intermediate network
translation - connect different application protocols
encryption - could be done by a gateway
