CNM Cyber

CNM Cloud Websites (hereinafter, the Lectio) is the lesson part of the CNM Cloud Essentials lesson that introduces its participants to CNM Cloud. This lesson belongs to the Introduction to CNM Cyber session of the CNM Cyber Orientation.


Content

The predecessor lectio is CNM Cloud Domains.

Key terms

Web browser. Any end-user application that allows for browsing web documents published at the World Wide Web. To request the Browser display some website, a user enters into the Browser the website's hostname. Then, the Browser utilizes DNS to locate the sought website in the World Wide Web and to get its landing page's web document in order to display this webpage in the Browser.
Website. A collection of webpages that are located at the same hostname.

address bar

Script

Until CNM Cyber's mobile app is developed, every user of CNM Cyber must use a web browser such as Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox, or any other, to access this platform through its websites.
In the World Wide Web, CNM Cyber is located at the CNMCyber.com hostname. Its landing page has been drafted, but not available yet. When it is launched, that page will help its visitors to navigate through various CNM Cyber services.
Various systems of CNM Cyber are available at subdomains such as cabin.cnmcyber.com for CNM Cabin, cert.cnmcyber.com for CNM Cert, social.cnmcyber.com for CNM Social, tube.cnmcyber.com for CNM Tube, or wiki.cnmcyber.com for CNM Wiki.
The CNM Next Apps, which are those versions of CNM apps that are installed on the CNM Next Servers, feature the .next. field added to their hostnames such as cert.next.cnmcyber.com and social.next.cnmcyber.com.
Similarly, the CNM HandsOn Apps, which are those versions of CNM apps that are installed on the CNM HandsOn Servers, feature the .handson. field added to their hostnames such as tube.handson.cnmcyber.com and wiki.handson.cnmcyber.com.
To display any webpage, one needs to type its URL into the address bar of web browser. The bar is always located on the top of the page. It is often confused with an input field of web search engine. If you cannot locate the bar, most likely, you use a mobile app.
DNS stands for Domain Name System; it describes a system of hostnames, subdomains, etc. Similarly to whole CNM Cyber, its DNS is a living endeavor as well. For instance, CNM Cabin is temporarily located at opplet.net, not at its "right" subdomain.

What Competency Suite Is is the successor lectio.
