Determine the task which should intranet require
Intranet to work smoothly, the following tasks should be properly synchronised:
- All computers connected together in a network must communicate using the same language and protocol. Inability to do so may leave the users disconnected to the repository of information and resources.
- It must be always remembered that if the language used is Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML), everything that is developed for and intended to be hosted on the Intranet must follow HTML invariably.
- The protocol suite applicable for both Intranets and the Internet are called Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and every computer should be compatible with TCP/IP. Though, TCP/IP evolved initially on UNIX based computers, it became a standard for data communication and more recently for every type of communication across Intranets and the Internet, especially supported by every major operating system in use.
- The Intranet is driven by a network server that uses a browser, like Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer.
