PPP is an important protocol in the history of networking, particularly for establishing internet connections over serial lines. Its ability to handle multiple network protocols and provide authentication and error detection makes it a versatile and reliable choice for point-to-point communication. Despite the advent of faster and more modern protocols, PPP remains relevant in certain applications, particularly in… Read More »
What Is Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP)? Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is a protocol used in network security for the validation of a user’s identity.It is primarily used to authenticate a user or a network host to an authenticating entity, such as a server.CHAP is commonly used in Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connections, which are often found in… Read More »
Some obstacles can cause a breach or delay even loss of communication over the network. As the internet grows beyond prediction, the modern network’s support for traffic is getting beyond the traditional data types and becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. Communication over the network involves email, file sharing, or web traffic and increasingly, data networks share a common… Read More »
QOS: Understanding QoS MARKING The term marking refers to a type of QoS tool that classifies packets based on their header contents and then marks the message by changing some bits in specific header fields. This means that the QoS tool changes one or more header fields, setting a value in the header. How QOS marking works… Traditionally,… Read More »
What Is QoS? Quality of Service (QoS) in networking refers to the management of network resources to ensure the best performance of specific types of data transmission. The primary goal of QoS is to provide priority, including dedicated bandwidth, controlled jitter and congestion, and improved loss situations. It’s used to guarantee a certain level of a network service’s… Read More »
