Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is utilized for organizing data in a way that guarantees a
● Internet Protocol (IP) - As part of the TCP/IP protocol, the internet protocol (IP)
part is involved in providing routing from a specific department to the enterprise network. It
guarantees the integrity of data sent over the enterprise network, regardless of the amount. For
this reason, it is used to transmit data from other higher-level protocols that require all
transmitted data to arrive. The Internet Protocol (IP) is the leading communications protocol in
the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across enterprise network boundaries. Its
routing function enables Internet working, and essentially establishes the Internet.

octet is converted to decimal and is divided by a period or dot. For this reason, an IP address is
said to be expressed in dotted decimal format. A subnet mask can be best described as a number
that defines a range of IP addresses available within a network. A subnet mask limits the number
of valid IP's for a specified network. Multiple subnet masks organize a single network into tiny
Specify the network and subnet IDs and the IP addresses used for different devices on the
hospital's network.
When referring to the subjected hospital, it would be my professional opinion to set subnet IDs
to match the hospital's various sections. Included would also be subnetwork categories such as
hospital records and other items for patients and staff. Setting various subnetworks for the
different sections of the hospital will ensure that information is organized and quickly traceable
by the IT department who can ultimately tell where the IP address found its origins. Private IP
addressing will be utilized beginning with 10.20.x.x. Each floor will be designated by using the
correspondence to the floor number. Each subnetwork will be put together at the Ethernet switch
by utilizing virtual LANs (VLANs). IP addresses will be managed automatically using DHCP.
Segmenting the network into subnetworks supplies better security and performance while

● Private IP Address - Only work within a network because of not being routed
through the Internet. Furthermore, utilized to assign computers within private networks such as a
home office. Private or public, either IP addressing configuration will have an IP address that
will allow the hospital network to identify and locate an IP address. This will permit the
identification of computers and other hardware to be connected through the hospital's private
network. For example, an MRI machine will send the images to a computer or a server, this

Describe the role of the DHCP and DNS servers on the hospital's network.
The DHCP server assigns a short-term address to a client's computer for a specific amount of
time and will increase according to the requirements. DNS servers receive the queries through
the client and respond with the results. DHCP and DNS are created to make it easy for the
hospital to utilize networks or the Internet. DHCP assigns the IP address and the DNS searches
and finds the already existing address. This ensures the computers located on the hospital campus
can identify the right site through an IP address versus a domain name.
