Starter Activity: Any idea what this is?
Internet
In this lesson you will learn about Internet. You
will create a diagram to illustrate the Internet,
think like a router to take the most efficient path
to a destination and trace the path of a website.
Lesson
Objectives
 Understand how the Internet works
 Be able to explain the protocols TCP/IP and HTTP
 Be able to describe the role of a router
 Be able to explain the role of an IP address
Internet
Watch the Internet video, this will show you how
the Internet works in 5 minutes.
Internet
The Internet is:
•A network of networks
•It connects millions of computers from around the
world and allows them to communicate
•Data is transmitted from one computer to another
using telephone systems and satellites
•Computers use common languages so they can
communicate. There are called protocols.
Internet
Task 20: Internet Diagram
Using clipart images create a diagram to illustrate
how the Internet works.
Internet
Protocols
HTTP is the first part of a web address – it stands
for HyperText Transfer Protocol and is used to
request and deliver web pages.
TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol it allows computers and
servers to communicate with each other across the
Internet.
Internet
Broadband Router
•Broadband allows fast download speeds and is
permanently connected
•>4Mbit/sec is considered to be broadband
•A broadband router allows computers to connect
to the Internet through a telephone line
•They guide data packets around the Internet
through the quickest route
•Some broadband routers have a wireless access
point to allow wireless Internet access

Task 21: Think like a Router!
The one way system in school is established to help
students and staff move around the school
efficiently. What route would you go if you have to
take a message from this classroom to the main
office as quickly as possible when:
1.All lessons are taking place
2.All students are moving between lessons
3.Its dinner time the corridors are empty of
students
Internet
IP Address
Every computer and router on the Internet has a
unique IP (internet protocol) address.
It is made from a series of numbers separated by
dots like: 217.27.240.45
Special servers called DNS (domain name server)
servers link IP addresses to website names.

Task 22: Trace the path to a website
1.Go to: http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/visual-tracert/
2.Use the tracecert tool (proxy trace) to find out:
– How may routers did your request pass through before
reaching the server where the disney.com website is
hosted
– Where is the physical located on the server
– How many miles did your request travel
– How long did your request take to reach the server
– How many routers did your request pass through in
Great Britain
