An examination of network protocols for creating and managing a switched network. Topics will include Ethernet LANs, Virtual LANs, VLAN trunking, network and link layer addressing, subnetting, DHCP, ...

Routing protocols play a critical role in the functioning of the Internet and the services built upon them. However, many of these protocols were developed without security concerns in mind. For ...

Routing is the process of determining where to send data packets that are destined for addresses outside the local network. Routers gather and maintain routing information to enable the transmission ...

Performance of a network is based on routing protocols. RIPv1, RIPv2, EIGRP and OSPF are the dynamic routing protocols being used in the practical networks to propagate network topology information to ...

How does an SDN interoperate with the rest of the network? SDN Doesn't Operate Alone Software Defined Networks don't operate alone. They will have to interoperate with other SDNs and with other parts ...

Network Engineers are always looking for new ways to gain some low-cost network testing capabilities. Few companies sufficiently fund networking labs for their networking teams to learn on prior to ...

Initiatives like smart manufacturing require the free flow of information across a network architecture—from the point where data is first collected, to where that data is analyzed and contextualized ...
