什么是网络分区

It is important to define our terms, most especially for words that everyone thinks they understand. The terms web and Internet are not synonyms: they refer to completely different things.

定义我们的术语很重要，尤其是对于每个人都认为自己理解的单词。 术语Web和Internet不是同义词：它们是指完全不同的事物。

The internet is “the network of networks”. It is the physical hardware: the servers, cabling, routers, modems, switches and clients (computers) that combine to form the massive network we call the internet. To use an analogy, the internet is plumbing: it is the physical infrastructure that allows information to flow.

互联网是“网络的网络”。 它是物理硬件：服务器，电缆，路由器，调制解调器，交换机和客户端(计算机)结合在一起，形成了我们称为互联网的庞大网络。 打个比方，互联网正在蔓延：它是允许信息流通的物理基础设施。

Furthering the analogy, that information – the data – is the fluid that is pumped through the plumbing. In reality, plumbing line could be used to transfer any kind of fluid or gas: in your house you are likely to have plumbing lines for hot water, cold water, and natural gas. Similarly, the internet can “pump” any kind of digital information. In our analogy, the data that makes up the “World Wide Web” would be hot, fluoridated water: it is simply one kind of information that can be transferred through the network. While the web remains the medium by which most people experience data on the Internet, it is by no means the only one. eMail, for example, can be transferred without using the web. (Yes, you need the web for gMail and Hotmail, but Outlook doesn't need the web in order to send eMail). Similarly, you can play a networked FPS game via the Internet without using the web. It is entirely possible to have a working internet connection but not be able to access the web. The reverse can never be true.

进一步类推，该信息-数据-是通过管道泵送的流体。 实际上，管道系统可用于传输任何种类的流体或气体：在您的房屋中，您可能有用于热水，冷水和天然气的管道系统。 同样，互联网可以“抽取”任何类型的数字信息。 以我们的类比，构成“万维网”的数据将是热的氟化水：它只是可以通过网络传输的一种信息。 尽管网络仍然是大多数人在Internet上体验数据的媒介，但绝不是唯一的媒介。 例如，电子邮件可以在不使用网络的情况下进行传输。 (是的，您需要用于gMail和Hotmail的网站，但Outlook不需要网络即可发送电子邮件)。 同样，您可以通过Internet玩联网的FPS游戏，而无需使用Web。 完全可以连接互联网，但无法访问网络。 反之亦然。
