Faster and More Modern IP Network Communication Protocols.

What Is IP Network Protocols? As of this publication, there have been several protocols developed that are faster and more modern compared to traditional ones like PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol). These protocols are designed to cater to the demands of high-speed internet, more complex network architectures, and the need for enhanced security and efficiency. Before we delve into the… Read More »

OSPFv3 Explained.

What Is OSPFv3? OSPFv3 is a type of routing protocol that is used to determine the most efficient path for data to travel across a network. It is an updated version of OSPFv2, which was designed for use with IPv4 network. Like OSPFv2, OSPFv3 uses autonomous areas to divide networks into smaller, more manageable sections. By doing so,… Read More »

IPv6 Migration: 6 to 4 Tunnelling Explained with Example.

What Is 6 to 4 Tunnelling? 6 to4 tunnelling is a method of integrating IPv6 packets within an IPv4 network. It is particularly useful when transmitting IPv6 data over an IPv4 network, and is especially effective in WAN settings where a remote network still uses IPv4 protocols. In this type of migration, the process involves the creation or… Read More »

Router-on-a-Stick InterVLANs Sub-Interfaces.

What Is Router-on-a-Stick Inter-VLANs Sub-interfaces? Router-on-a-Stick Inter-VLANs is a network setup that enhances communication between various VLANs on a single network device. It Involves connecting a single physical interface of a router to a switch, along with configuring multiple logical sub-interfaces on the router. This setup allows for the routing of traffic between different VLANs without the need… Read More »
