Peer-to-peer
One device that is shared on the network is a router. This is the one that will connect the various devices to the shared network.
network attached storage (NAS)
A hub is a layer 1 network device (hardware), and the 'web' is a software concept implemented by different protocols and multiple devices.
In a ring topology, devices are connected in a circular fashion, and the primary device used to connect these devices is a network switch or a repeater. Each device is linked to exactly two others, forming a closed loop for data transmission. Data travels in one direction around the ring, and if one device fails, it can disrupt the entire network unless a dual-ring configuration is implemented for redundancy.
The device-status table tracks the current operational status of devices in a network, such as whether they are online or offline, their health status, and any performance metrics. It provides real-time information on the availability and condition of network devices, which is crucial for network monitoring and troubleshooting.
UPNP Universal Plug and Play - Device discovery . It goes by many names as the industry has not settled on one.
A device with wireless connectivity or Ethernet ports, which otherwise connects a series of devices in a network topology.
Yes, switch as well as hub and router are network devices.
It is an ISDN Network Termination device. ...or... It is a rack used to house network devices.
Server
Devices on a linear bus network are connected to each other via a wire, usually through a T-connector device. In effect, the devices are "daisy chained" together without any other device connecting them.
