Key concepts

Concept 1

Network/IP-based peripherals and web-based configuration

Network/IP-based peripherals and web-based configuration. Peripheral devices extend computer functionality: - Input devices: Keyboard, Mouse, Scanner, Webcam, Microphone - Output devices: Monitor/Display, Printer, Speakers/Headset, Projector - External storage: External hard drive, USB flash drive, Optical drive Installation and configuration: 1. Connect the device: USB devices plug into ports. Bluetooth devices pair via settings. Network peripherals connect via Ethernet/Wi-Fi. 2. Install drivers if needed: Most modern peripherals are plug-and-play (OS auto-detects). Some need manufacturer drivers for full features. 3. Configure settings: Set as default printer, adjust resolution, select audio output device, etc. 4.
