  • Network Protocols

    TCP is used on applications like Web browsing, e-mail services and file transfer. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) performs the same as TCP, but unlike TCP it does not perform error checking or resending of datagrams.

  • Link Protocols

    Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data link layer of the OSI model.

  • Important information about LAN Topologies

    Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data link layer of the OSI model.

  • Data Communications

    An Ethernet frame has 1500 octets, consisting of 20 octet headers and 1480 data octets. To fit the 4460 data octets carrying 1480 data octets per Ethernet frame, we have: # of datagrams= 4460 / 1480 = 3, remainder 20 octets.

  • Protocol and Architecture, IP and IPX, ARP and RARP

    The Internet Protocol (IP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) are connectionless protocols, but TCP/IP (the most common use of IP) is connection-oriented.

  • Routers versus switches.

    Among the capabilities found on leading routers are those that permit configuring TCP/UDP ports (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers) for games, chat services, and the like, and installing web servers, etc. on the LAN behind the firewall.

  • Importance of OSI

    For ethernet based networks e.g. LANs (Local Area Network), the data link protocol LLC (Logical Link Control) is equally used in OSI and TCP/IP networks.
