People associate computer networking with LANs more than any other type of network connection. A local network consists of a collection of devices located in close proximity to each other (such as in a house or an office building) connected to shared network equipment (likebroadband routersornetwo...
Network Topologies used in Ethernet Connection 1. Bus Topology All computers in a bus topology are connected to a wire. Whenever a computer sends a computer frame, it goes to all the computers available in the topology, but it only accepts the computer whose MAC address matches the...
Infrastructure mode is the most common style of Wi-Fi, and it is the one people think of when they connect at home or the office. With infrastructure mode, you need an access point that serves as the primary connection device for clients. All other clients in the network (computer, printe...
a WAN is a connection of multiple LANs that belong to the same network. Unlike MANs, however, WANs aren't restricted to the confines of city limits. A WAN can, theoretically, extend to any area of the globe. For example, an organization with a corporate office in New York can connect ...
An Ethernet switch can adjust the connection speed of an inbound packet to match the connection speed of the destination network. Many switches now support Power over Ethernet (PoE). PoE allows certain network devices, such as Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, to get power from the switch without...
A router directs data requests from one network to another. Routers examine incoming packets to determine the appropriate destination IP address and then forward the packet to that destination. A router can also enable internet access through its connection to a modem, or as a combined modem-rout...
connection-oriented communication between devices. It ensures the delivery of data packets in order, without errors, and incorporates flow control mechanisms to prevent congestion. TCP breaks data into packets, reassembles them at the destination, and ensures error recovery in the event of any lost ...
A metropolitan area network (MAN) provides networking capabilities between different locations within a city or metropolitan area to provide a single extensive network. Typically, a MAN requires a dedicated and secure connection between each LAN joined to the MAN. ...

special connection is opened up between two network devices, and the channel remains open to transmit data until it is closed. On the other hand, a UDP transmission does not make a proper connection and merely broadcasts its data to the specified network address without any verification of ...
