What is the difference between an end device and a networking device?
Internetworking devices which means its efficient and performance is up to the mark. But in networking devices there is a lot of problems when we are sending the packets from one computer to another computer.So its difficult to work with networking devices compare to interconnecting devices. Cost is moderately high in this..
Meaning of networking hub?
A networking hub is a device that relays data communication. It sends data packets to all devices that are within a network, regardless of any MAC addresses it contained.
The local host can send packets on the local network?
The localhost address is designed to verify that the software for networking has been installed and is operating correctly. It does not pass any packets to the network.
What type of address mechanism is a tunneling protocol that enables computers to transmit IPv6 packets through NAT routers that do not support IPv6?
Teredo
What are packets associated with?
Packets relate to the sending and receiving of batches of data between two devices.
What is Packet Corruption in computer networking?
The loss of data packets during transmission.
Do all packets have the same source address?
As a packet traverses different networks, the source IP address will always stay the same as the original sending devices IP address unless NAT (Network Address Translation) is involved somewhere along the line.
Which statements describe characteristics of extended access lists?
They check packets by source address They check packets by destination address
Why tunneling is required in mobile ip?
To transmit packets of private subnet through public internet
What is Filtering in computer networking?
Filtering is the act of deciding which data packets are allowed to be sent and which packets should not be sent.Packets that are not sent are said to be filtered.Filtering decisions can be made by any device that routes, generates, or receives packets, but generally packets are filtered by firewalls.HTH,Gdunge
What is PPS-4 in microprocessor?
Packets per second - In networking, the amount of packets a device can process per second. Packets per second (pps) is a measure of throughput for network devices such as bridges, routers, and switches. It's a reliable measurement only if all packet sizes are the same. Vendors will often rate their equipment based on pps, but make sure comparisons are made using the same packet sizes.
What about router?
A router is a computer networking devices, that forwards the data packets along the network. there two types of routers Wireless broadband routers and wired router, these both are look much the same.
