4. Presentation Video This is our presentation video. We hope, this will help in summarization from our throughout this blog and project.

3. TCP/IP Configuration For OUM SERVER and Home network, we manually assign all the IPv4 addresses for each devices. To show how it can be done, there are two methods that can be use. Let's configure the TCP/IP for one of the Home network hosts: 1st Method (GUI): Assume the host is using Windows operating system... First, search for Control Panel and open it.  Figure 1: The Control Panel GUI Next, click on Network and Internet section. After that, click on Network and Sharing Center . Here is how it looks like Figure 2: Control Panel > Network and Internet At the left side, click Change adapter settings . All network adapters for the host will be listed out here. Figure 3: Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections   In this case, this host's currently active network adapter is Wi-Fi 2 . Double click on the network adapter. The network adapter status will be popped out. You can see the IPv4 and IPv 6 connectivity and also the speed. Click Properti...

2. Subnetting Calculation In this section, we are expecting to show the calculation on how to identify the IP address that was assigned for the Online Learning System Server based on the information given in the project scenario. Figure 1: Network Topology (click to see clear image of Network Topology) Based on the scenario given, we choose Class A and Class C as the IP Address for the OUM network and Home network, respectively. We have calculated the IP address that assigned to all the devices on both networks. OUM Network Class A : 10.0.0.0 /8 Assume: 3 Department including It Center Each faculty is given their network address. Assign IT Center as another subnet with their own network address. From the network address, assigned as the  4 th  available address as the address of OUM Server.   According to the scenario given, from the network address, the 4 th  available address 10.0.0.4 which is assigned to OUM SERVER. Figure 2: Subnetting Calculation for O...

1. OSI Layer Model In the OSI Layer Model, there are 7 layers used as references to help and shows how networks operate. This OSI Layer Model was first introduced by The International Standard Organization (ISO) in the late 1970s. According to the project scenario, the data travels from the student’ s  computer to the OnlineLearning System server which is in the OUM IT Center will pass through all the 7 layers for the data transmission. Layer 7: Application Layer As we know, Application Layer is the top layer of the OSI Model. According to the project scenario, the student’s computer are able to direct interact with the OnlineLearning System server which located in OUM IT Center by typing the link ( https://www.oum.edu.my/ ) using any supported browsers such as Safari, Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. In this case, we can clearly say that the application layer are known as software provided for the end-user to interact with.   Layer 6: Presentation Layer The presentati...
