Overview
This week we continue our study of computer networking and begin presenting our microcontroller projects.
Thursday, February 23rd
Classwork
Today we will see several of our microcontroller presentations, after which groups not yet ready to share their projects will have time to work on them.
Homework
Read Chapter 4: Internetworking Layer (IP), from our networking text.
Add notes for this chapter to the Intro2networkingNotes.md
file in your git repo.
When I run the command $ ip addr on my Linux desktop, I see:
inet 158.59.225.115
Convert this number into binary. On page 38, Dr. Chuck says that 65,536
computers could be connected to the network using the network number of
212.78
. Where does he get this number? Explain.
This assignment is due Sunday, February 26, at 5 am, so I can grade it Sunday afternoon.
Tuesday, February 21st
Classwork
We'll begin class with a short quiz on the first two chapters of Introduction to Networking.
Then we will (hopefully) see at least one of the microcontroller presentations, after which groups not yet ready to share their projects will have time to work on them.
Homework
Read Chapter 3: Link Layer, from our networking text. Add notes for this
chapter to the Intro2networkingNotes.md file in your git
repo.
At the bottom of page 26, you are presented with an example of a MAC address. Just for fun, convert this number into binary.
This assignment is due Thursday, February 23, at 5 am, so I can grade it before we come to class.
