Network mapping is a process used to discover and visualize physical and virtual network connectivity via a group of interrelated tasks that facilitate the creation of a network map, including flow charts, network diagrams, topology detection and device inventories. Network mapping allows network administrators (NA) to visualize and break down complex networks into smaller portions, allowing the NA to analyze and view the network, check for connection errors and pull up details that facilitate an issue's root cause analysis. By using a mapping system's active monitoring module, administrators can track network changes in real time. This is useful for network providers and Internet service providers (ISP), as well as anyone that operates a large, complex network. At Evolve IT, our technicians are versed in industry best practices in regards to network mapping, setup, and management.

Did you know that disk drives have an expiration date? Most disk drives last 3-5 years. This can become an issue for your business if you do not have a way to back up the information on those disks. Evolve IT can help your business with backups so you don't lose any data. If you've already lost data, don't sweat, we have recovery solutions to help restore that lost data.

Did you know that having an unsecure printer can be a cyber security risk? If your printers connect to a network, they are just as vulnerable to cyber attacks as computers are. Printers might even be more susceptible because they are often unprotected and overlooked as points of entry. Evolve IT can help your business secure not only the obvious points of entry, but the ones you might not think to consider as well!

Knowing how your network is setup and works, is essential to troubleshooting internet connectivity issues. Below is a diagram of a basic network set up. The Modem converts the signal coming into your building from the Internet Service Provider, to a hard-wired connection to your computer using an ethernet cord. If you have Wireless devices, you would need a Router to convert the hard-wired internet connection into a WiFi signal that the wireless devices can connect to.

If your laptop cannot connect to the internet, that could either be a problem with the device, the router, the modem, or the internet service. This is where knowing your internet "flow" comes in handy. Beginning with the device and working your way backward will give you a troubleshooting path to find the origin of the issue.

If you're having internet connectivity issues, Evolve IT can help your business set up a network that accommodates your needs, and with our onsite and remote support, the only "flow" you'd have to worry about is your work flow!

💡The more you know....

A peripheral device is an auxiliary device used to put information into and get information out of a computer. The term peripheral device refers to all hardware components that are attached to a computer and are controlled by the computer system, but they are not the core components of the computer (such as the CPU or Motherboard). Peripherals can also be defined as devices that can be easily removed and plugged into a computer system.

Several categories of peripheral devices may be identified, based on their relationship with the computer:

An input device sends data or instructions to the computer, such as a mouse, keyboard, microphone and we**am;
An output device provides output data from the computer, such as a computer monitor, projector, printer, headphones and computer speaker;
An input/output device performs both input and output functions, such as a computer data storage device (including a disk drive, solid-state drive, USB flash drive, memory card and tape drive), modem, network adapter and multi-function printer.

🔎💻Have you ever wondered what the inside of your computer looks like? 💻🔎

The computer case, also known as the tower, box, system unit, base unit, enclosure, housing, chassis, and cabinet, is used to protect the hardware of a computer. These hardware components include the PSU (power supply unit), CPU (central processing unit), Motherboard, Video Card, Hard Drive, CD-ROM, and Fan. This is where all the magic happens! Your monitor takes the output from your computer and display's it in an interactive and visually appealing way via the GUI (graphical user interface). (Pssst, the worlds first computer didn't even have a monitor, it used a punch card!)
