About this listen
Routers, switches, IPs, MAC addresses - if those and dozens of other IT terms sound like different language to you, you're not alone!
In this episode of The Offset Podcast we’re discussing essential IT vocab, devices and workflows. Of course, in a single episode there is a ton that we can’t cover, but if as a creative, IT stuff is confusing to you, than this overview will certainly help. Being conversant with IT terms is a must in modern post production.
Some of the specific topics we explore in this show include:
- Why IT knowledge is essential on lots of levels including communicating with other people in the industry
- Understanding the role of a router and WAN vs LAN connections
- The role of a switch
- IP essentials - public IP vs internal IP
- DHCP vs Static/Fixed IPs
- VLANS and their role in more complicated network structures
- The value of an IT ecosystem/product integration and a ‘single pane of glass’ approach
- Firewalls and their importance in VLAN setups & incoming/outgoing connections
- Exploring network speed and performance options - 1GbE, 10GbE etc
- Understanding jumbo frames/MTU size
- The role of WIFI in the professional environment
