What is web enabled or internet enabled applications?

Web enabled refers to a product or service that can be used through, or in

conjunction with, the World Wide Web. A Web-enabled product may be accessed

through a Web browser or be able to connect to other Web-based applications inorder to synchronize data.

What are web services?

Web services extend the World Wide Web infrastructure to provide the means for software to

connect to other software applications. Applications access Web services via ubiquitous Web

 protocols and data formats such as HTTP, XML, and SOAP, with no need to worry about

how each Web service is implemented. Web services combine the best aspects of 

component-based development and the Web, and are a cornerstone of the Microsoft .NET programming model.

What is the difference between the localization and the

globalization?

Localization- to make something local, consider a particular locality -

After a product has been internationalized, it can then be localized.

Localization is the process of adapting a product to fit the specific

language and culture of a target market. The goal is to make the

product as natural and transparent as possible for the user, as if it was

developed with that user in mind. Globalization- is a fact that different

cultures and economic systems around the world are becoming

connected and similar to each other. It consider all world - is the

process of developing, manufacturing and marketing a product

intended for distribution in foreign markets. This is a two-step process

consisting of internationalization and localization, with translation

being an integral part of localization. Internationalization – is it an act of 

crating something consider two or more countries -Internationalization

is the process of generalizing a product to prepare it for localization.

This neutralizes the product, enabling a more efficient localization

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 2/13

process, improving quality and decreasing localization costs and time to

market. Internationalizing a product just once enables a company to

easily localize that product for multiple locations. Translation- is the

process of rendering the meaning of a text from one language intoanother. It is a significant part of the localization process.

Another answer?

Globalization: -It is the process of developing a program core whose features and code

design are not solely based on a single language or locale.

Localization: - The process of adapting a program for a specific local market, which includes

translating the user interface, resizing dialog boxes, customizing features (if necessary), and

testing results to ensure that the program still works.

What is TCP/IP?

TCP/IP

Stands for "Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol." These two protocolswere developed in the early days of the Internet by the U.S. military. The purpose

was to allow computers to communicate over long distance networks. The TCP part has to do with the verifying delivery of the packets. The IP part refers to the

moving of data packets between nodes. TCP/IP has since then become thefoundation of the Internet. Therefore, TCP/IP software is built into all major 

operating systems, such as Unix, Windows, and the Mac OS.

SMTP

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 3/13

Stands for "Simple Mail Transfer Protocol." This is the protocol used for

sending e-mail over the Internet. Your e-mail client (such as Outlook,

Eudora, or Mac OS X Mail) uses SMTP to send a message to the mail

server, and the mail server uses SMTP to relay that message to thecorrect receiving mail server. Basically, SMTP is a set of commands that

authenticate and direct the transfer of electronic mail. When

configuring the settings for your e-mail program, you usually need to

set the SMTP server to your local Internet Service Provider's SMTP

settings (i.e. "smtp.yourisp.com"). However, the incoming mail server

(IMAP or POP3) should be set to your mail account's server (i.e.

hotmail.com), which may be different than the SMTP server.

OSI Model

The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model was created by

the ISO to help standardize communication between computer

systems. It divides communications into seven different layers, which

each include multiple hardware standards, protocols, or other types of services.

The seven layers of the OSI model include:

1. The Physical layer

2. The Data Link layer

3. The Network layer

4. The Transport layer

5. The Session layer

6. The Presentation layer

7. The Application layer

7/27/2019 What is web enabled or internet enabled applications.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 4/13

When one computer system communicates with another, whether it is

over a local network or theInternet, data travels through these seven

layers. It begins with the physical layer of the transmitting system and

travels through the other layers to the application layer. Once the datareaches the application layer, it is processed by the receiving system.

In some cases, the data will move through the layers in reverse to the

physical layer of the receiving computer. 

The best way to explain how the OSI model works is to use a real life

example. In the following illustration, a computer is using a wireless

connection to access a secure website.

The communications stack begins with the (1) physical layer. This maybe the computer's Wi-Ficard, which transmits data using the

IEEE 802.11n standard. Next, the (2) data link layer might involve

connecting to a router via DHCP. This would provide the system with

an IP address, which is part of the (3) network layer. Once the

computer has an IP address, it can connect to the Internet via

the TCP protocol, which is the (4) transport layer. The system may then

establish aNetBIOS session, which creates the (5) session layer. If a

secure connection is established, the (6)presentation layer may involve

an SSL connection. Finally, the (7) transport layer consists of 

theHTTP connection to the website.

The OSI model provides a helpful overview of the way computer

systems communicate with each other. Therefore, software developers

may reference the OSI model when writing software that requires

networking or Internet support. Instead of recreating the

communications stack from scratch, software developers only need to

include functions for the specific OSI layer(s) their programs use.

What is meant by backbone in networking?

7/27/2019 What is web enabled or internet enabled applications.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 5/13

 Another term for  bus, the main wire that connects nodes. The term is often used todescribe the main network connections composing the Internet. 

BridgeWhen a road needs to extend across a river or valley, a bridge is built

to connect the two land masses. Since the average car cannot swim or

fly, the bridge makes it possible for automobiles to continue driving

from one land mass to another.

In computer networking, a bridge serves the same purpose. It connectstwo or more local area networks (LANs) together. The cars, or the data

in this case, use the bridge to travel to and from different areas of the

network. The device is similar to a router, but it does not analyze the

data being forwarded. Because of this, bridges are typically fast at

transferring data, but not as versatile as a router. For example, a

bridge cannot be used as a firewall like most routers can. A bridge can

transfer data between different protocols (i.e. a Token Ring and

Ethernet network) and operates at the "data link layer" or level 2 of the

OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) networking reference model.

Network Connection DevicesPosted on March 17, 2008 by Jared 

Its easy to forget about all the small pieces of hardware that

sit and hum along 24-7 just so that we can check our email or catch the latest stats for our fantasy

team. Just what are those little boxes and why do they have so many little blinking lights?

Network connections are made possible by two main types of hardware: network media and network

connectivity devices. This article is going to cover the later in enough detail to have you picking up

the network-speak in no time. Network connection devices include:

  Network interface cards (NIC)

  Hubs

  Switches

  Bridges

  Routers

  Gateways

  Modems

 A NIC (network interface card) is a piece of hardware that allows you to plug in –or, interface with – a

network cable. NIC’s are usually installed as an expansion card or is already built into your 

motherboard.

Hubs are devices that connect all of the segments of a network together. That is, every device on

the network (computers, printers) has a cable that is also connected to the hub. Hubs work in such a

way that every signal that is received on one port is rebroadcast to every other device. So, if one

device sends a signal, all the other devices receive the signal, but only one particular device listens

for it.

 A switch is like a hub in that every device on the network is connected to it. However, a switch does

not rebroadcast signals to all other devices. A switch makes a direct link between the device that is

transmitting and the device that is receiving. All other devices are totally unaware of the

communication taking place. For this reason, switches realize greater performance because

bandwidth is not being wasted on needless rebroadcasting.

 A bridge is used to to keep network traffic separated between network segments. Traffic is not

allowed to pass through the bridge unless its destination is on the other side. Bridges are used to

 join to network segments or to divide a busy network into two segments.Routers are devices that can connect several network segments (even segments that are not alike

in type). The router has the ability to make decisions about the best way to send network traffic to its

destination.

 A Gateway is any device that connects network environments that are not alike. For example, a

gateway is used to connect LAN (local area network) environments to mainframe environments.

Modems (modulator/demodulator) are devices that change digital data into analog for transmission

over analog network medium and then back to digital at the receiving end. There are several types

of modems; some losing popularity and others gaining more and more use. These are:

  Telephone (POTS – Plain Old Telephone Service)

  DSL (Digital Subscriber Line)  Cable

I hope this has shed some light on the various network connection devices. Of course, there’s an

enormous amount on information on this subject out on the web. If you’re  really serious about getting

into networking, grab a study guide for getting certified in the subject (Network +). These books have

zero fluff and do a great job presenting the material. They are invaluable and can be very helpful…

even if you’re not looking to get certified.

Internet networking devices are also called Intermediate systems, network equipment, or Inter working Unit. Common essential networking devices which are very frequently used now daysare:Router : It is a specific network device that establishes the next network point to which to onwarda data packet in the direction of its destination. Distinct a gateway, it cannot edge different protocols.It works on Open System Interface layer3.

Gateway: It is a device operational at a network node for interfacing with an additional network thatuses dissimilar protocols. It is operating on Open System Interface layers 4 to 7.Hubs: This device connects multiple Ethernet sections jointly and making them proceed as a singlesegment. When using a hub, every attach appliance shares, the similar broadcast domain and thealike collision domain.

 Switch: It is a device that assigns traffic from one network section to certain lines, which connect thefragment to another network segment. So unlike a switch and hub splits the system traffic and sendsit to special destinations slightly than to all systems on the network. It works on Open SystemInterface layer 2.Bridge: This device connects several network segments alongside the data link layer. It works onthe OSI model 2nd layer.

What is hub in networking?

HubThis is a hardware device that is used to network multiple computers

together. It is a central connection for all the computers in a network,

which is usually Ethernet-based. Information sent to the hub can flow to

any other computer on the network. If you need to connect more than

two computers together, a hub will allow you to do so. If you only need

to network two computers together, a simple crossover Ethernet cable

will do the trick.

ASP

ASP has two different meanings in the IT world: 1) Application Service

Provider, and 2) Active Server Page.

1) Application Service Provider 

An Application Service Provider is a company or organization that

provides software applications to customers over the Internet. These

7/27/2019 What is web enabled or internet enabled applications.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 10/13

Internet-based applications are also known as "software as a service"

(SaaS) and are often made available on a subscription basis. This

means ASP clients often pay a monthly fee to use the software, rather

than purchasing a traditional software license. Some SaaS applicationscan be accessed via a web browser, while others operate over a

proprietary secure port. 

2) Active Server Page 

An Active Server Page, commonly called an "ASP page," is

a webpage that may contain scripts as well as standard HTML. The

scripts are processed by an ASP interpreter on the web server each

time the page is accessed by a visitor. Since the content of an ASPpage can be generated on-the-fly, ASP pages are commonly used for

creating dynamic websites. 

ASP is similar to other scripting platforms, like PHP and  JSP, but

supports multiple programming languages. While the default ASP

language is VBScript, ASP pages can include other programming

languages as well, such as C# and  JavaScript. However, alternative

languages must be defined before the script code using the following

declaration:

<%@ Page Language="C#"%> 

ASP pages are part of the ASP.NET web application framework

developed by Microsoft. Therefore, ASP pages are most often found on

Windows-based web servers that run Microsoft Internet Information

Services, or IIS. You can tell if you are accessing an ASP page in your

browser if the URL has an ".asp" or ".aspx" suffix.

File extensions: .ASP, .ASPX 

What is .net framework?

.NET is a way for many different programming languages to use the same classes,

namespaces and other resources.

What is CLR? 

CLRShort for C ommon Language R untime, a runtime environment that manages the executionof  .NET program code and provides services such as memory and exception

management, debugging and profiling, and security. The CLR is a major component of the .NETframework.CLR also is known as the V  irtual E  xecution S ystem (VES).

Another answer:

CLR means commaon language runtime for the dot net framework.it is the frame work layer that resides above the operatingsystem and handels/ manages the execution of the .netapplications.our .net programs don't directly communicate

with the operating system but through CLR.

What is virtual directory?

What is a virtual directory ?

A virtual directory represents a web application and it points to a physical folder in your

computer.

A web application is accessed using a virtual directory name instead of a physical folder

name. For example, if you have a web application called "Shopcart" in your machine,

you will have a virtual directory for this web application. You will access your web

application using the URL httP://localhost/Shopcart. If your virtaul directory name is

"Test", then your web application url will be "http://localhost/Test".

Assume you have a web application called "Shopcart", created under the physical folder

"C:\MyProjects\Shopcart".

You can go to IIS and see this virtual directory listed. Right click on this virtual

directory name in IIS and see the properties. You can see that this virtual directory is

pointing to the physical location "C:\MyProjects\Shopcart".

If you have a file called "File1.aspx" under the folder "C:\MyProjects\Shopcart\", then

7/27/2019 What is web enabled or internet enabled applications.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 12/13

you can access this file using Internet Explorer with the URL

http://localhost/Shopcart/File1.aspx 

Another answer:

A virtual directory is a directory created in IIS to host our applications and to

hide the actual physical location from the application users.

WHAT IS A FRONT PAGE SERVER?

FrontPage Server Extensions package is a collection of software created

by Microsoft to install in

addition to the Web server software, in effect telling the server

software how to respond to commands

generated by the FrontPage program and by visitors to a FrontPage-

based site.

What is Microsoft FrontPage?Microsoft FrontPage was one of the first popular web design tools that allowedusers to create custom web sites without having to know HTML code.Microsoft stopped updating FrontPage in 2003 in favor of more modern andstable software.FrontPage requires FrontPage extensions to integrate with the Yahoo! Small

Business system. As of September 12, 2011, Microsoft FrontPage extensionsare no longer supported for Yahoo! Small Business web sites. Learn more. We regret this inconvenience and recommend that all of our customers usingFrontPage begin the transition to a new publishing tool as soon aspossible. Learn more about other publishing options. 

Another answer:

Can I use Microsoft FrontPage?

Microsoft FrontPage is a software program used to design and publish Web

sites. It allows you to create a Web site in the same way that Microsoft Wordallows you to create business letters.

FrontPage also includes a number of special features, such as the ability

to upload (publish) your Web site without requiring an FTP program. It has

interactive features like hit counters, feedback forms, and discussion groups.

7/27/2019 What is web enabled or internet enabled applications.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/what-is-web-enabled-or-internet-enabled-applicationsdocx 13/13

What are Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions?

Microsoft FrontPage is an extremely popular website editor. FrontPage Server Extensions

allow you to edit your website directly on our webserver by using Frontpage's "Open Web"

command. They also give you control of some more advanced features such as, counters,

forms, and more.

What are FrontPage server extensions?

FrontPage server extensions are CGI programs which provide the server side implementation of 

FrontPage. FrontPage communicates with the extensions via Hyper Text Transmission Protocol

(HTTP) using a Remote Procedure Call (RPC).

When the server sees the "POST" request addressed to the FrontPage server extensions it simply

directs the request to the appropriate CGI program. The extensions implement authoring

(uploading/downloading documents, To Do Lists), administration (setting end-user, author, and

administrator privileges), and dynamic content (browse-time WebBot components).

Without the FrontPage Server Extensions you will not be able to take advantage of the WebBots that

are available through FrontPage. Also, without the extensions you cannot author and administer 

your web using the tools provided as part of the FrontPage Editor/Explorer package.

What is root directory?

The root directory is a specific directory on the server file system in which the users are

confined. Users are not able to access anything above this root.

For example: the default root directory of IIS on Windows is C:\Inetpub\wwwroot and with

this setup, a user does not have access to C:\Windows but has access to

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\news and any other directories and files under the root directory

(provided that the user is authenticated via the ACLs).

The root directory prevents users from accessing sensitive files on the server such as cmd.exe

on Windows platforms and the passwd file on Linux/UNIX platforms.
