Static routing involves manually configuring routing entries into a router’s routing table. Unlike dynamic routing, which uses algorithms and protocols to determine routes automatically, static routes are fixed and must be updated manually if the network topology changes. Both IPv4 and IPv6 static routing follow similar principles but are applied to different address families. i. Default Route A… Read More »
A router uses a systematic process to determine the best route for forwarding a data packet. This process involves several key factors: longest match, administrative distance, and routing protocol metric. Below is a detailed explanation of each factor and how they contribute to the routing decision: 1. Longest Match The longest match principle means that the router selects… Read More »
In the domain of cybersecurity, understanding key concepts such as threats, vulnerabilities, exploits, and mitigation techniques is essential. These terms form the backbone of how we approach and handle security in any digital environment. This blog post will provide a comprehensive and technical overview of these fundamental concepts. 1. Threats A threat is any circumstance or event with… Read More »
How Network Switch Works. Switching is a fundamental concept in network design, particularly in the area of Local Area Networks (LANs). Network Switching Device A network switching device is a crucial component in modern computer networks, allowing for the efficient routing of data packets between different devices. These devices come in various forms, such as routers, switches, and… Read More »
What are IP Management Access Connections? In wireless networking, AP (Access Point) and WLC (Wireless LAN Controller) management access connections refer to the methods and protocols used to configure, manage, and monitor these devices. AP (Access Point): An Access Point is a device that creates a wireless local area network (WLAN), usually in an office or large building.… Read More »
