Q

client

A

always has a server giving it access to resources

29
Q

host

A

any device with an IP address

30
Q

VLAN

A

virtual LANS. virtual area network that exists because of software, not just physical connection

31
Q

VPN

A

a LAN tunneled over a WAN connection (email, DoD)

32
Q

MPLS

A

multi-protocol label switching. one of the most populat WAN protocols. physical layout flexibility. redundency and one-to-many connection

33
Q

Peer to Peer

A

no one is in charge. systems can be a client, server, or both

34
Q

bus topology

A

A+B connectors work with T connector. 10 users. one went bad, you had to check them all

35
Q

star topology

A

devices connected to a central point

36
Q

ring topology

A

each node regenerates the signal. only one device at a time can talk (token passing). one device down can stop the whole network

37
Q

mesh topology

A

every device connects to every device. formula for number of segments- n(n-1)/2

38
Q

point to point topology

A

only need 2 IP addresses

39
Q

point to multi-point topology

A

more than one connectoin from a point to multiple points

40
Q

OSI

A

open system interconnectoin

41
Q

protocol data unit

A

what form is the date in, in any given layer of the OSI model. Do da dance so people fly back

42
Q

CSMACD/CSMACA

A

collision detection/avoidance

43
Q

DCE

A

data communication equipment. time-giving equipment

44
Q

DTE

A

data terminal equipment. routers are DTE by default, listening for other devices to give it time. give a clock rate to change to DCE

45
Q

3 types of NAT

A

PAT (port address translation) 1 IP address, SNAT(static NAT) many IP addreses, Dynamic NAT all using a pool of addresses

46
Q

routing protocol

A

rules for how data is routed. IP is a routed protocol. OSPF is a routing protocol

47
Q

3 ways a router is populated

A

static (manual entry), dynamic, physical connection

48
Q

EGP

A

exterior gateway protocol

49
Q

protocols

A

BGP-amin distance 20, EIGRP-90, OSPF- 110, RIP- 120 Is-Is- 115

50
Q

link state protocols

A

OSPF, Is-Is

51
Q

distance vector protocols

A

RIP v1&2, IGRP

52
Q

hybrid protocol

A

hop count. the closest the better

53
Q

collision domain

A

potential for devices to send at the same time. defined my switches

54
Q

broadcast domain

A

dictated by number of VLANS and all interfaces on the router

55
Q

what address does a switch use to populate MAC addresses?

A

source MAC address

56
Q

spanning tree

A

stops switching loops by blocking unnecessary paths. know which ports to block

57
Q

how many VLANS does an access port support?

A

one. other ports must be changed to trunk to support multiple
