This gives me the expertise to maintain the over 300 computers used throughout the school system. A network is a group of computers that are connected together to share information. Almost all the computers at Shakamak are networked together. This enables information to be shared throughout the school. The names are like the highway system.
Intrastate highways are limited to inside the state and interstate highways run from state to state.
The Intranet is inside the school and the Internet is outside the school. Through the Intranet, we have the ability to run software and store information for use here at Shakamak. A server is a dedicated computer that shuffles information back and forth to computers. Shakamak has two servers. One server handles the Internet and web pages and the second server contains software that is used in different classes.
