There is 3 "main" ones.

UDP, TCP, and ARP.

UDP - Used for very fast messaging between servers

TCP - Used for things like chats, http, etc..

ARP - "Address Resolution Protocol" this is what's used to make it so that you are assigned an IP address..

There are thousands, literally, of protocols out there. Those are just the ones I believe fallinto this category.

Does wireless networks must meet all the same security requirements of a wired LAN?

It's supposed to, but the problem with wireless networks that you can catch packets even if it was not send for you. Such problem was eliminated for wired networks a while ago, the solution is used in all routers. For wireless networks such solution cannot work in principle.

When is the gateway used?

A gateway is used in networking to connect different networks that use different protocols, enabling communication between them. It acts as a "gate" that translates and forwards data packets between these networks. Gateways are commonly utilized in various contexts, such as connecting a local area network (LAN) to the internet, integrating cloud services with on-premises systems, or linking different IoT devices. They play a crucial role in network interoperability and data exchange.


Improving security in real time wireless networks through packet scheduling?

In the present network we have not a security of your data so you can do develop a some algorithm,that is useful to protect the packets in dynamically,but now used algorithms can't protect the packets,so we can develop spss algorithm,this algorithm is more protect the packets compare to other algorithms.......


Which device should be used for enabling a host to communicate with another host on a different netw?

A router should be used for enabling a host to communicate with another host on a different network. Routers are responsible for forwarding data packets between networks, using IP addresses to determine the best path for the data. They connect multiple networks and manage traffic, ensuring that information reaches its intended destination efficiently.
