We are going to look at network devices. Some of these you may be familiar with, or at least heard of. Things like routers, switches, and hubs.
First watch this to get a basic introduction: http://youtube.com/watch?v=72HBsTIFAaY

- Router
- Switch
- Hub
- LAN
- Bridge

The terms above may be a part of your Friday quiz!
