What else can I help you with?
What technology takes packets and breaks them out into smaller packets and send them over the network?
packet switching
How will a broadcast frame that is sent by a host PC be handled on the net?
The broadcast will be received by all devices in the same network, but will not be forwarded outside the network (routers do not forward broadcast messages). So for the Internet, for example, you do not see broadcast packets.
Which defensive measures can you take to mitigate the possibility that your network could be used in this type of attack?
1. Filter packets leaving your network with source addresses that do not originate inside your network. 2. Filter packets entering your network with a broadcast address for a destination
What is broadcast ID?
A broadcast ID, often referred to as a broadcast address, is a special network address used to send data packets to all devices within a specific subnet or network segment. Instead of targeting individual IP addresses, packets sent to the broadcast address are received by all devices on that network, facilitating communication and data sharing. In IPv4 addressing, the broadcast address is typically the highest address in a subnet. For example, in the subnet 192.168.1.0/24, the broadcast address would be 192.168.1.255.
What do you mean by switching technique?
There are ways in which packets are filtered and fowarded through the network.1.circuit switching2.message switching3.packet switching4.cell switching
What is the effect of a router on delimiting broadcast traffic and conserving bandwidth?
Generally speaking, routers will unicast-forward incoming packets which have a network broadcast address as destination, unless they are directly connected to that network/subnet and therefore know that the destination address is a broadcast address
Which tasks result in processing delays when the packets of an audio transmission are transmitted over a packet-switching network?
Compression Encoding
What are the advantages to dividing networks into subnets?
The advantages are:Security - packets must be routed between subnetsPerformance - packets will stay within their own subnet for the most partTroubleshooting - it is easier to find a problem in a smaller network than a large one.
What is the difference between b-isdn and n-isdn?
B-ISDN is a circuit switching process. The N-ISDN is a virtual switching process (packets). ISDN stands for Integrated Service Digital Network.
What facts are true about the network portion of an IPv4 address?

Which option correctly describes a switching method?
A switching method refers to a technique used in networking to manage data traffic between devices efficiently. It determines how data packets are directed within a network, typically through mechanisms like circuit switching, packet switching, or message switching. Packet switching, for example, breaks data into packets that are routed independently, optimizing bandwidth and reducing latency. Overall, switching methods are crucial for ensuring reliable and efficient communication in various types of networks.
