|
the time it takes for a router to recognize a best path in the event of a change or network outage.
|
Convergence Time
|
|
|
the routing protocol of internet backbones and is not used to route between nodes on an autonomous LAN, it is used on border and exterior routers.
|
BGP-border gateway protocol
|
|
|
are combinations of networking hardware and software that connect two dissimilar kinds of networks.
|
Gateway
|
|
|
the physical layout, or pattern, of the nodes on a network.
|
Physical topology
|
|
|
consists of a single cable connecting all nodes on a network with out intervening connectivity devices. devices share the responsibility for getting data from one point to another.
|
Bus Network
|
|
|
each node is connected to the two nearest nodes so that the entire network forms a circle.
|
Ring Topology
|
|
|
every node on the network is connected through a central device, such as a hub or switch.
|
Star Topology
|
|
|
uses the physical layout of a star in conjunction with the ring topology’s data transmission method.
|
Star Wired Ring
|
|
|
refers to an entire organization, including its local and remote offices, a mixture of computer systems, and a number of departments.
|
Enterprise
|
|
|
a linked series of devices.
|
Daisy chain
|
|
|
is the cabling that connects hubs, switches, and routers on a networks
|
network backbone
|
|
|
uses a router or switch as the single central connection point for multiple subnetworks
|
Collapsed Backbone
|
|
|
handles heavy traffic going through the collapsed backbone
|
multiprocessors
|
|
|
refers to the way in which data is transmitted between nodes, rather than the physical layout of the paths that data takes.
|
logical topology
|
|
|
a connection is established between two network nodes before they begin transmitting data.
|
Circuit switching
|
|
|
a component of a networks logical topology that determines how connections are created between nodes.
|
switching
|
|
|
the interference of one networks node’s data transmission with another network node’s data transmission
|
Collision
|
|
|
each node waits its turn before transmitting data, to avoid interfering with other node’s transmissions.
|
CSMA/CD-carrier sense multiple access collision detection
|
|
|
enables multiple nodes to simultaneously transmit and receive data over different logical network segments.
|
switched Ethernet
|
|
|
a 3 byte packet, called a token, is transmitted from one node to another in a circular fashion around the ring.
|
Token Passing
|
