Introductory Message
For the facilitator:
Welcome to the CSS 10 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on Setting-up
Computer Server!
This module contains information and suggested learning activities on Computer

Lesson
1
Setting-up Computer Server
What’s In
Technical Terms:
NOS – Network Operating System
LAN – Local Area Network
OS – Operating System
SNMP – Simple Network Management Protocol
What’s New
A network operating system (NOS) provides services to clients over
a network. Providing basic network administration utilities (such as SNMP,
or Simple Network Management Protocol), enabling an administrator to
perform tasks involving managing network resources and users.
What is It
NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM
The term network operating system is used to refer to two rather different
concepts:
7


A specialized operating system for a network device such as a
router, switch or firewall.
An operating system oriented to computer networking, to allow
shared files and printer access among multiple computers in a
network, to enable the sharing of data, users, groups, security,
applications, and other networking functions. Typically over a
local area network (LAN), or private network. This sense is now
largely historical, as common operating systems generally now
have such features included.
TYPES OF NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM
1. Peer-to-peer network
In a peer-to-peer network
operating system users are
allowed to share resources
and files located on their
computers and access shared
resources from others. This
system is not based with
having a file server or
centralized
management
source. A peer-to-peer network
sets all connected computers
equal; they all share the same
abilities to use resources
available on the network.
The advantage include:
 Ease of setup
 Less hadware needed, no server need be acquired
The disadvantages include:


No central location for storage
Less security than the client-server model
2. Client-Server Network
Network operating systems can
be based on a client-server model
(architecture) in which a server
enables multiple clients to share
resources. Client-server network
operating systems allow networks
to
centralize
functions
and
applications in one or more
dedicated file servers. The server
8
is the center of the system, allowing access to resources and
instituting security.
The advantages include:
 Centralized servers are more stable
 Security is providd through the server
 New technology and hardware can be easily integrated into the
system
 Hardware and the oprating system can be specialized, with a
focus on performance
 Servers are able to be accessed remotely from different locations
and types of systems
The disadvantages include:
 Buying and running a server raises costs
 Dependence on a central location for operation
 Requires regular maintenance and updates
