2nd Exam
Physical Topology
How the network is physically installed
Logical Topology
How the network works conceptually (how data flows)
Routing Tables
Tables on a router that determine where the router will send packets on the network.
(T/F) Cost assessment is used to look at the relative cost of technologies used in a network design.
True
(T/F) Hub-based Ethernet is a star physical topology and a bus logical topology.
True
(T/F) The campus backbone is usually faster than the backbones used inside buildings.

Static Routing
- Fixed routing tables - Manually configured by network managers - Local adjustments when computers added or removed
Centralized Routing
-Routing decisions made by one computer -Not common anymore
Dynamic Routing
-routing tables updated periodically -routers exchange information using protocols to update tables

Subnet
A logical subset of a larger network, created by an administrator to improve network performance or to provide security.
Decentralized Routing
Decisions made by each node independently of one another
(T/F) A VLAN requires the computer manager to reconfigure the physical cables to the switch if a computer is moved from one port to another port on a switch.
False
(T/F) An access point plays the same role in a wireless network as a router does in a wired Ethernet network.
False
(T/F) Cut-through switching has fewer errors than store and forward switching.
False
(T/F) Routed backbones use switches that move packets based on data link layer addresses.
False
Wired Ethernet Standard
IEEE 802.3
TCP 3-way handshake
Sender sends a SYN, Receiver sends a SYN-ACK, Sender sends an ACK
UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
Used when the sender needs to send a single small packet to the receiver
turnpike effect
When the network is used to a greater extent than was anticipated.
