Neighbors (IPv6)

are two or more nodes on the same link

specifies a single node on a network

SNAT (Source Network Address Translation)

the gateway assigns the same public IP address to a host each time it makes a request to access the Internet.

DNAT (Dynamic Network Address Translation)

PTR (Pointer) record

used for reverse lookups

Resolvers

•- a DNS client that requests information from DNS name servers

A port

•A port is a number assigned to a process that can receive data •Port numbers ensure data is transmitted to the correct process among multiple processes running on a single device

authoritative name server

•An authoritative name server is the authority on computer names and their IP addresses for computers in their domains

•Port numbers are divided into three types:

•Well-known ports - 0 to 1023 •Registered ports - 1024 to 49151 •Dynamic and private ports - 49152 to 65535
