ARP

Address Resolution Protocol, helps discover the MAC address of a device from a known IP address.

Database server

Application server

What letters are used in Ethernet standards to identify copper cables?

Base CX

What type of device connects hosts using different transmission media on the same subnet?

Bridge

Network Media

Connects all the various components of the network together so everything can communicate

Router

Connects multiple network segments together(multiple switches). Uses IP address, not MAC address.

Different kinds of Network Media

Copper= Electricity(bounded) Fiber= Light(bounded) Wireless= Radio Waves (unbounded) IR= Light waves (unbounded)

Hub

Creates a star topology. Functions- send data to hub, hub would send to every single hub. Bottleneck issue because of excessive bandwidth consumption. Can only operate in half duplex mode

SFP

Enables you to change the media type of a port(there is a GBIC as well-but bigger)

Network Bridge

Extend a network(a router treats networks as separate units). A bridge groups them as a family. Uses MAC address.

Servers

File/print servers, application server, directory server, remote access server, web server, DNS server, DHCP server

What is the difference between half-duplex mode and full-duplex mode?

Half duplex can only transmit on it or receive, cannot do both at the same time. Full duplex can do both at the same time.

What are the main differences between a hub and a switch? What makes a switch a better choice for many networks?

Half duplex(hub) and full duplex(switch)

DHCP Server

Listens for workstations to come online and sends request for IP address.

DNS Server

Map difficult to remember IP addresses to easy to remember domain names

MAC Address

Media Access Control Address, 12 character number that identifies each network adapter. The numbers are hexidecimal, separated by dashes or periods. Hard coded into the hardware.

How does DSL provide support for both analog and digital data on the same telephone line?

Modem

Switch

Much more efficient, functions, send data to switch. Switch knows which host is connected to each ports of the switch by the MAC address and will send it to ONE host. Can operate full duplex mode

NAS

Network Attached Storage, provides storage and sharing of network files.

Internet Applicances

Provide basic internet access, dedicated device to provide some type of service (ex. VOIP, proxy, content filter, malware scanner)

What is the transmission medium for wireless networks?

Radio Signals

Which device would you use to connect two network segments with different subnet addresses?

Router

Web Server

Serves web pages

Reverse ARP

Used to find the IP address when the MAC address is already known.

Directory server

Used to store information about all users and network resources on the network. Also stores permissions and rights.

Remote access server

VPN

VOIP

Voice Over IP, delivers voice communications over IP networks. Go through an IP network. Much less expensive than standard telephone service.
