Translational Bridge
The packets will travel via R2-R1.
The packets will travel via R2-R3.
The traffic will be load-balanced between two paths - via R2-R1 and via R2-R3.
The packets will travel via R2-R3, and the other path via R2-R1 will be retained as the backup path.

The steps are:Put a NIC device in every system that will connect to the networkCreate a cable that goes from the NIC to a connectivity device, such as a hub or switch.Install a networking protocol on each systemConfigure the networking protocol to name each device and put an appropriate network address on each NIC card.That's it! You're done.

When you connect to the network is normally the time that an Internet Protocol address is created or assigned to your computer

An ethernet adapter is the component that allows you to connect to your internet modem or computer network. Upon connecting your ethernet cable, you will be able to access the internet or computer network to which you are connected.
A network ready device is a device that has the potential to connect to a network, natively it isn't connected to a network, nor is it a network, but with the appropriate configuration and possibly with the addition of components could be connected.
NIC (Network Interface Card) is a device that makes possible your computer to connect to the network you must insert your NIC in PCI slot of a computer connect CAT 5 cable to the NIC assign IP addresses to computers and in such a way let TCP/IP (networking protocol) do its job :) http://embarq.centurylink.com/embarq/media/images/promo/residential/HSI_nic_display.gif
If you are asking about IPX/SPX Novell protocol, you uninstall the protocol attached to the network device (NIC) by going to the Network settings, finding the adaptor, and removing the protocol.
An IP Address, or Internet Protocol Address. Each device has one.
