Understanding Peripherals and User Rights

The video tutorial discusses the concept of peripherals in both hardware and software contexts. It explains the importance of peripheral devices in networks, such as printers and modems, and the different access levels and rights associated with them. The tutorial also covers the management of modem settings, including proxy settings and bandwidth restrictions, emphasizing the role of administrators in controlling access and ensuring network security.

What are the two main aspects discussed in relation to user rights?

• Vision and hearing

• Central and peripheral

• Printers and modems

• Hardware and software

In the context of technology, what does the term 'peripherals' refer to?

• User interface elements

• Central processing units

• External devices like printers and modems

• Internal memory components

What is the opposite of 'peripheral' as discussed in the video?

• Peripheral

• Central

• Lateral

• External

Which of the following is NOT a function you can perform with a network printer?
