Why do you AND ing the subnet and ip address?
Because this is the way you can easily and quickly isolate the network portion from the host portion of the address to just get the network id, which would be using for routing purposes.

That is the IP address! There is also a sub-net, usually 255.255.255.0 to consider.

How does a layer 2 switch create collision domains?
When using network switches, each port on the switch is its own collision domain.
What is the purpose of VPN tunnel?
The purpose of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) tunnel is to create a safe and secure network environment between a server network and a remote terminal so that a remote user can gain access to networked resources that they would not normally be able to gain access to.
What are the Roles of computer in a network client server and peer?
The server supplies the information or access point and the peer is the computer requesting the information
If the organization had N people and they wanted to communicate with the same symmetric key then,each of the N1 people would use it 2. But, if you are doing N1 then it would be the same as N so it's just there! Then you do the equation i + j N! Once you know that then you are done.
Your computer sends but does not accept packets How can you get it to receive packets?
When a computer is able to send but not receive packets, it means it has wrong DNS server addresses and gateway. Check out the correct addresses in order for the computer to send and receive packets.
What is the Difference between mainframe and client server?
Basically, a mainframe is a big piece of machinery. A client server is a complex computer program that uses that big piece of machinery and perhaps other pieces of machinery. The client server program resides in the main frame computer and takes orders from the various terminals attached to it. It may request data from the main frame or data from a distant main frame.
Networks are the most popular type of network for medium- and large-scale organizations?
Client/server
How do you share data over network?
Data is commonly shared over the network by creating a network share. The network share is typically a shared folder that may or may not have password protection.
A campus LAN is a network in a single building or a group of closely related buildings. It mainly refers to layer 2 switching.
What cable is required for a direct Ethernet connection between two PCS?
"RJ-45 Cross cable" is required for a direct ethernet connetion between two pcs
- between the same type of network devices (PC-to-PC, switch-to-switch, router-to-PC (Note: router and PC are LIKE devices, because both are DTE)) you use Crossover cable.
- to connect different type of devices (PC-to-switch, PC-to-router ..) you use Straight Through cable.
Explain methods of controlling access in management of a local area computer network LAN?
EXPLAIN THE METHODS OF CONTROLLING THE PURCHASE OF MANUFACTURED PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
What is the maximum length for twisted pair cable used in telephone circuit?
300 feet Answer I believe it is many miles, when used in a teleplone circuit. They use a large battery voltage for voice over the line. 100 meters if used in an ethernet environment.
What are the implications of thin and fat clients for a server?
"Fat" clients already have their software (OS, apps, etc.) usually available to them. A "thin" client does not, and therefore has to download the software from a server.
The net effect would cause the server to be busier (depending on the number of thin clients making requests). It may also take several attempts to successfully download the software depending on network quality.
The default gateway on host A is incorrectly configured.
Private IP addresses
Then just leave the password field blank. Or if that doesn't work put a password on it and then login with the credentials.
