What are the different router edges and how do they impact network performance and security?
There are three main types of router edges: core, distribution, and access. The core edge connects to the backbone network, the distribution edge connects different parts of the network, and the access edge connects end devices like computers and phones. Each edge plays a role in network performance and security by controlling traffic flow, managing bandwidth, and enforcing security policies. The core edge ensures fast data transfer, the distribution edge balances traffic, and the access edge controls user access and protects against threats.
What are devices that enable the nodes on a network to access the network and communicate with each other?
Servers
Are devices that enable the nodes on a network to access the network and communicate with each other?
Servers
What is deterministic access?
When using the controlled access method, network devices take turns, in sequence, to access the medium.
Purpose of the TCP Network Access layer?
Controls the hardware devices and media that make up the network
Which network design layer provides connection point for end user devices to the network?
The Access Layer
Which best describes a multi-access network?
This is referring to a computer network that connects multiple hosts together. It transmits data within the host or network.
What is deterministic access method?
When using the controlled access method, network devices take turns, in sequence, to access the medium.
What is an access point?
An access point is a device such as a WLAN or modem which permits wireless devices to connect to a network.
What is the name of the device that connects wireless devices to the wireless Local Area Networks to the wired Local Area Networks?
That would be a WAP - Wireless Access Point, which operates as a bridge between the two network types.
What is the purpose of an access point?
The function of a wireless access point is to allow wireless devices such as projectors, laptops and PDAs to access a local area network. Wireless access points mainly act as switches to spread connections wirelessly. The difference between an access point and a router is that access points do not assign IP addresses nor do they have firewalls; they only lock out traffic that does not have the wireless key.
What are the three functions of a wireless bridge?
It can function as a Bridge, Relay, and Access Point. In Bridge mode it connects multiple access points to a single fixed line. In relay mode it connects multiple access points to a remote access point. And as a traditional access point it provides network access to wireless clients.
