How does the use of a networking switch minimize problems with packet sniffing in a LAN?

In a LAN, the use of a networking switch can minimize problems with packet sniffing by implementing IPsec at layer 3which encrypts transmissions across the network link. (These damn ITT tech questions can be a pain sometimes, eh?)


What are different names of lan protocol?

LAN protocols are often referred to by various names depending on their specifications and implementations. Commonly known LAN protocols include Ethernet, Token Ring, and Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11). Additionally, there are protocols like ARCNET and FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface) that serve specific purposes in local area networking. Each of these protocols has its own characteristics and use cases in different networking environments.


What is a wide area networking?

Wide area networking is also referred to just WAN and means a network that is not limited to a local area, local area network (LAN). The world wide WEB is the biggest WAN of all. An home would use a LAN. A typical office building would use a LAN. If you interconnect several LANs across a wide geographical range you end up with a WAN. Make sense?

What is giga lan card?

A Gigabit LAN card, or Gigabit Ethernet card, is a network interface card (NIC) that enables computers to connect to a local area network (LAN) at speeds up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). This technology significantly enhances data transfer rates compared to traditional Fast Ethernet cards, which operate at 100 megabits per second (Mbps). Gigabit LAN cards are commonly used in modern computers and networking equipment to support high-speed internet and data transfer requirements. They typically use an RJ-45 connector and are compatible with various networking standards.

Is a LAN connected to TCP?

A Local Area Network (LAN) is not directly connected to TCP (Transmission Control Protocol); rather, TCP is a protocol that operates at a higher layer in the networking stack. A LAN provides the physical and data link layers for connecting devices, while TCP functions at the transport layer to facilitate reliable communication between applications over a network. In a typical setup, devices on a LAN can use TCP to transmit data packets over the network, often in combination with IP (Internet Protocol).
