Web Server

What is Web Server?

Web server is server software that runs websites. It can satisfy client requests on the World Wide Web by delivering web pages to the browser. The general purpose of a web server is to store, process, and deliver web pages to users.

The communication between client and server is done by using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). These web pages are mostly static content of HTML documents which include style sheets, images, scripts for text content, etc, A web server also supports server-side scripting using Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP), Active Server Pages (ASP) and other scripting languages. Apart from HTTP, a web server can also support Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) for emailing, and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) for file transfer and storage.

When a website is developed, it was hosted on the webserver, to make it available for other users to see. The website will open in browsers like chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Internet Explorer. Users can able to access the website by its unique web address (domain address). Each website has its own domain address. For example, www.example.com/home is a domain address. If the webserver is down, then the web page will not load.

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

  What is Virtual Private Network (VPN)? A virtual private network (VPN) is a secure connection between two private networks over a public network (in other words, over the Internet). All the data that flows over the VPN is encrypted. So anyone who steals packets from the VPN will find them unintelligible; only the parties on either end of the VPN are able to decrypt the packets. VPN connections are often called tunnels. Because they provide an isolated pathway from one point to another through the Internet. The only way to gain meaningful access to a VPN tunnel is at either end. Example for VPN Connections VPNs are used for There are two common uses for VPNs: To provide remote workers with secure access to your company network: To do that, you set up a VPN on the router, and then provide your remote workers with the credentials necessary to access the VPN.
