LS Algorithms
Link State Algorithms - algorithms that must be aware of the cost of each link in the network
decentralized routing algorithm
least-cost path is carried out in an iterative, distribute manner. No node has complete information about the costs of all network links
static routing algorithms
routes change very slowly over time, often as a result of human intervention
dynamic routing algorithms
change the routing paths as the netwok traffic loads or topology change
load sensitive alogirthm
link costs vary danimlly to reflect the current level of congestion in the underlying link
load-insensitve
link's cost does not explicitly reflect its current or past level of congestion
link-state broadcast algorithm
all nodes have an identical and complete view of the network
distance vector
iterative, asynchronous and distributed algorithm using global information
routing tables
Each node's table of information that depicts that node's view of the distance from a certain node to other nodes
routing loop
a packet bounces back and forth between two nodes based on the information they both have
(AS)
Autonomous system - a group of routers that are typically under the same administrative control that all run the same routing algorithm
Autonomous system routing protocol
routing algorithm running within an autonomous system
gateway routers
routers that forward packets out of an AS
RIP
Routing Information protocol
OSPF
Open Shortest Path First
routing table
each node's interpretation about the paths between each node
BGP
Border Gateway protocol - AS routing across subnetworks
ASN
autonomous system number
stub network
all traffic entering that must be destined for that network and all trafic leaving must have originated in that network
multi-homed stub network
connected to the rest of the network via two different providers
links
communication channels that connect adjacent nodes along the communication path
link layer protocol
defines the format of the packets exchanged between the nodes at the ends of the link as well as the actions taken by these nodes when the packets are sent and received
frames
unites of data exchanged in the link layer protocol
NIC
network interface card (network adapter) where the link layer is implemented
bit-level error detection and correction
detecting and correcting the corruption of bits in a link-layer frame sent from one node to another physically coneccted neighboring node
parity bit (even)
even parity bit makes sure all bits plus parity bit is even
FEC
Forward error correction - ability of the receiver to both detect and correct errors
CRC
Cyclic Redundancy Check
generator (CRC)
r + 1 bit pattern
point-to-point link
single sender at one end of the link and a single receiver at the other end of the link
broadcast link
multiple sending and receiving nodes all connected to the same single shared broadcast channel
Multiple Access problem
how to coordinate the access of multiple sending and receiving nodes to a shared broadcast channel
Multiple access protocols
nodes regulate their transmission into the shared broadcast channel
channel partitioning protocols
split the channel into frequencies or times
CDMA
code division multiple access - different codes for each node and then encrypted based on code
Random Access protocols
transmitting node always transmits at the full rate of the channel, when there is a collission each node retransmits its frame
successful slot
exactly one node transmits
CSMA
carrier sense multiple access
CSMACD
CSMA with collission detection
carrier sensing
if someone else is speaking wait until they are finished
collission detection
if someone else begins talking at the same time stop talking - transmitting node listens to the channel while transmitting. If it detects that another node is transmitting an interfereing frame it stops
chanell propagation delay
the time it takes for a signal to propagate from one of the nodes to another
Polling Protocol
One master that polls other users (tells them when they can talk)
Token passing protocol
token passed around, only talk when have token
Token Ring
class of lan technologies consists of token passing technologies
FDDI
fiber distributed data interface
What is a link layer address called
LAN address, physical address, MAC address
MAC
media access control
mac broadcast address
FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF
How many bits is a mac address
48
ARP
address resolution protocol translates between IP and MAC addresses
ARP table
contains mappings of ip adddresses to mac addresses
ARP packet fields
sending and receiving ip and mac addresses
hub
boosts signals and sends it to everyone else connected
Siwtch
only sends information to the node it is supposed to go to
efficiency of ethernet
long-run fraction of time during which frames are being transmitted on the channel without collisions when there is a large number of active nodes
repeater
a physical layer device that receives a signal on the input side and regenerates the signal on the output side
transparent
switches are transparent, nodes don't know they are sending information to the switch
filtering
switch function that determines wheter a frame should be forwarded to some interface or should be dropped
forwarding
switch function that determines the interfaces to which a fframe should be directed and then moves the frame to those interfaces
switch table
contains entries for some but not necessarily all of the nodes on a lan
self-learning
switches learn the nodes connected to it
aging-time
how long the switch waites to delete an address from its table
plug-and-play devices
require no inervention from a network administer or user
