Features: This book is one of the "Computer Basics Made Easy" series. It starts with the fundamental knowledge of computer networking that a beginner should understand and master, and provides detailed explanations of the knowledge and operational skills required for setting up computer networks. The main content includes basic network concepts, networking fundamentals, setting up small local area networks (LANs), client/server systems, sharing Internet connections, managing internet cafes with network management software, sharing folders and printers, setting up web servers, FTP servers, and handling common computer network issues. The book features a fresh layout, is easy to understand, and emphasizes practicality. It is accompanied by lively sidebars, including "Tips," "Experience," "Profiles," "Practice," and "Expert Advice," which are interspersed after relevant knowledge points to help readers consolidate their knowledge and apply it in practice. Additionally, the book primarily uses illustrations to explain computer knowledge, truly achieving "picture-based text interpretation." To address the limitation of limited information in such books, we also incorporate useful information into the illustrations, such as annotations at key points and numbering the steps of operations (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) in the diagrams. This book is designed for beginners in computer networking and can also serve as a teaching material for universities, colleges, and computer training classes, as well as a self-study reference for readers interested in computer networking.
