46. How can a network switch be said to operate at Layer 4 of the OSI model?

A Layer 4 switch is capable of interpreting Layer 4 data. They operate anywhere between Layer 4 and Layer 7 and are also known as content switches or application switches. Among other things, the ability to interpret higher layer data enables switches to perform advanced filtering, keep statistics, and provide security functions. In general, however, a Layer 4 switch is still optimized for fast Layer 2 data handling.

48. ARP tables might contain two different types of entries. What are they, and how are they created?

ARP tables can contain two types of entries: dynamic and static. Dynamic ARP table entries are created when a client makes an ARP request for information that could not be satisfied by data already in the ARP table; once received, the new information is recorded in the table for future reference. Static ARP table entries are those that someone has entered manually using the ARP utility. This ARP utility, accessed via the arp command in both Windows and Linux, provides a way of obtaining information from and manipulating a device's ARP table.

47. What are some of the basic functions of a network router?

Although any one router can be specialized for a variety of tasks, all routers can do the following: * Connect dissimilar networks, such as a LAN and a WAN, which use different types of routing protocols. * Interpret Layer 3 and often Layer 4 addressing and other information (such as quality of service indicators). * Determine the best path for data to follow from point A to point B. The best path is the most efficient route to the message's destination calculated by the router, based upon the information the router has available to it. * Reroute traffic if the path of first choice is down but another path is available.

41. How does IPv6 utilize Neighbor Discovery Protocol to detect neighboring devices?

IPv6 devices use NDP (Neighbor Discovery Protocol) in ICMPv6 messages to automatically detect neighboring devices, and to automatically adjust when neighboring nodes fail or are removed from the network. NDP eliminates the need for ARP and some ICMP functions in IPv6 networks, and is much more resistant to hacking attempts than ARP.

50. What is MAC address spoofing?

MAC address spoofing is the impersonation of an MAC address by an attacker. On a network where access is limited to certain devices based on their MAC address, an attacker can spoof an approved device's MAC address and gain access to the network. This is a relatively easy attack to carry out, which is why MAC address filtering is not considered a reliable way to control access to a network.

43. How are routing paths determined?

Routing paths are determined in one of two ways: * static routing-A network administrator configures a routing table to direct messages along specific paths between networks. For example, it's common to see a static route between a small business and its ISP. However, static routes can't account for occasional network congestion, failed connections, or device moves, and they require human intervention. * dynamic routing-A router automatically calculates the best path between two networks and accumulates this information in its routing table. If congestion or failures affect the network, a router using dynamic routing can detect the problems and reroute messages through a different path. When a router is added to a network, dynamic routing ensures that the new router's routing tables are updated.

44. What are some examples of routing metrics that can be used to determine the best path for a network?

Some examples of routing metrics used to determine the best path may include: * Hop count, which is the number of network segments crossed * Theoretical bandwidth and actual throughput on a potential path * Delay, or latency, on a potential path, which results in slower performance * Load, which is the traffic or processing burden sustained by a router in the path * MTU, which is the largest IP packet size in bytes allowed by routers in the path without fragmentation (excludes the frame size on the local network) * Routing cost, which is a value assigned to a particular route as judged by the network administrator; the more desirable the path, the lower its cost * Reliability of a potential path, based on historical performance * A network's topology POINTS: 1 DIFFICULTY: Difficult REFERENCES: Routers and How They Work QUESTION TYPE: Subjective Short Answer HAS VARIABLES: False LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 4.3 - Explain how routers manage internetwork communications DATE CREATED: 1/27/2018 1:15 PM DATE MODIFIED: 1/27/2018 1:15 PM

42. What are the different categories of routers, and how do they compare?

Some of the different categories of routers are as follows: * Core routers, also called interior routers, are located inside networks within the same autonomous system. An AS (autonomous system) is a group of networks, often on the same domain, that are operated by the same organization. An AS is sometimes referred to as a trusted network because the entire domain is under the organization's control. Core routers communicate only with routers within the same AS. * Edge routers, or border routers, connect an autonomous system with an outside network, also called an untrusted network. For example, the router that connects a business with its ISP is an edge router. * Exterior router refers to any router outside the organization's AS, such as a router on the Internet backbone. Sometimes a technician might refer to her own edge router as an exterior router because it communicates with routers outside the AS. But keep in mind that every router communicating over the Internet is an edge router for some organization's AS, even if that organization is a large telecommunications company managing a portion of the Internet backbone.

45. There are several interior gateway protocols, but only one current exterior gateway protocol. What is this protocol, and what characteristics does it have?

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the only current exterior gateway protocol, and has been dubbed the "protocol of the Internet." Whereas OSPF and IS-IS scouting parties only scout out their home territory, a BGP scouting party can go cross-country. BGP spans multiple autonomous systems and is used by edge and exterior routers on the Internet. Here are some special characteristics of BGP: * path-vector routing protocol-Communicates via BGP-specific messages that travel between routers over TCP sessions. * efficient-Determines best paths based on many different factors. * customizable-Can be configured to follow policies that might, for example, avoid a certain router, or instruct a group of routers to prefer one particular route over other available routes.

49. How is the TTL (Time to Live) field utilized in IPv4?

The TTL field indicates the maximum duration that the packet can remain on the network before it is discarded. Although this field was originally meant to represent units of time, on modern networks it represents the number of times a packet can still be forwarded by a router, or the maximum number of router hops it has remaining.The TTL for packets varies and can be configured; it is usually set at 32 or 64. Each time a packet passes through a router, its TTL is reduced by 1. When a router receives a packet with a TTL equal to 0, it discards that packet and sends a TTL expired message via ICMP back to the source host.
