How does the use of a router differ from a bridge in telecommunication?

A router is a communication device that is used to connect two different networks, while a bridge is networking device that divides the network into different segments to manage the amount of traffic. Routers are communication devices used to connect two different networks. A router sorts incoming data and distributes it to the correct destination. For example, if you have a network within a single office building, many different devices from within the network may access resources outside the network. Bridges are networking devices that divide up the network into different segments to manage the amount of traffic. This prevents unnecessary traffic from entering other parts of the network and reduces congestion.

Backbone Networks

backbone network: a network containing a high capacity connectivity infrastructure that forms the main link, or backbone, to the different parts of the network. - covers a local area within a building or vicinity or may have global outreach that spans geographical area - cabling, switches, bridges, routers, gateways in varying segments Serial backbone: consists of two or more connected devices or nodes linked to each other via a single cable in series that connects to an extension to the network - small network setups - highly susceptibility to faults and system downtime - if one network gets disrupted the whole network is down Distributed Backbone: a hierarchical formation of devices that are adaptable to multiple connectivity. - spans a larger network with multiple sub networks connected - suited for enterprise wide connectivity - Expanding and troubleshooting the network is simple, as layers of the network are easily added and managed. Collapsed backbone: a single, high specification router that serves as the central connection supporting the rest of the network - characterized by high computational power to handle traffic from various networks - dependent on a single router, makes the network vulnerable - if the router goes down the entire network does too - applicable in situations where two different types of sub networks need to be connected and managed effectively Parallel Backbone: employs a system of replicated connections to the backbone infrastructure - nodes and switches are implemented with duplicate concurrent connections to the high-level backbone routers - this setup ensures high network speeds, robustness, and high fault tolerance - expensive with the increased cabling - variation of the collapsed backbone infrastructure used to connect and managed different types of sub networks effectively - offers higher fault tolerance capabilities

In the OSI physical layer, data is transmitted in the form of _____.

both optical and electromagnetic signals

Media Access Control AMC Address

built into the wired or wireless network card inside your device. Think of it as your unique hardware identifier. IP/TCP Internet Protocol (IP) Address: assigned to the device when it connects to the internet - used for communicating devices on the internet - MAC address is fixed and the IP address can change based upon where the devise is when it connects to the internet Internet of Things IoT - some devices can connect and be part of a network without any human intervention - since so many things are connected to the internet now, its called IoT Network Infrastructure - hubs, routers, and switches can be network nodes as can firewalls and network servers - like office phones

Voice over IP (VoIP)

connect to the internet and use a network to place voice calls without the need for physical phone line - early 2000s Skype was introduced BENEFITS - Widely available service - easy to use - cost-effective - group calls CHALLENGES - potential call quality issues - strong network required - possible security concerns

Transport Layer

provides communication services between computers on a network - performs error checking to ensure that the transmission is free of errors Services: - identify the application and the client's identity - ensure that the complete message arrives - Segment the data for transportation from the network layer - detect errors in transmission - put any segmented data in the right order - share multiple sessions Functions: Process-Level Addressing - addressing at the transport layer enables differentiation between software programs, allowing their use on different network layer protocols simultaneously. Multiplexing and Demultiplexing - Multiplexing is accomplished on the sending computer, where data received from multiple application programs are prepared for transport. Demultiplexing occurs at the receiving computer, after which the data packets are forwarded to the appropriate application process Segmentation, Packaging and Reassembly - Larger amounts of data are divided and separated into small packets, which are then transmitted from the sending computer to the receiving computer. At the receiving computer, the transport layer reassembles the data for transmission to the session layer. Connection Establishment, Management and Termination - The transport layer establishes a reliable communicative connection, maintaining the connection as data is transmitted. When the data has been sent and communication is no longer necessary, the transport layer terminates the connection. Acknowledgments and Re-transmissions - Most protocols start a timer on each occurrence of data transmission. When the data is successfully received, an acknowledgment message is forwarded to the sending computer verifying receipt. If the sending computer does not receive an acknowledgment, the data is assumed lost and re-transmitted. Flow Control - Based on the amount of activity, the transport layer may institute a slow-down between nodes, thus preventing bottlenecks or network delays. Protocols Transmission Control Protocol TCP User Diagram Protocol UDP - aid to transport layer in managing communications between multiple computer resources - TCP provides error recovery and flow control in support of user application protocols li
