Sliced Up Network
This helps solve the fundamental problem with classful addressing, such as too many host addresses assigned to each classful network, resulting in available addresses being used up too quickly.
What is Subnetting?
The form that IPV4 and IPV6 that the network ID is written in (that isn't decimal form).
What is Binary?
These are configured on a switch to support traffic that comes through VLANs.
What is a port?
This is a software security flaw that can allow unauthorized users to gain access to a system.
What is a backdoor?
The point of action on the part of the victim that gives the attacker the access he/she desires.
What is an exploit?
This separates the IP address into the network and host addresses.
What is a Subnet Mask?
There are 8 bits in this class' network ID.
To identify the transmissions that belong to each VLAN, the switch adds this to identify the port.
What is a tag or identifier?
An attack where MAC addresses can be impersonated.
What is a spoofing attack?
Sometimes trusted people have or develop this malicious intent.
What is insider threat?
Though tedious on large networks, this type of IP addressing can also be used on network hosts.
What is static IP addressing?
This internet protocol uses class-type address space for multicast use.
What is IPv4?
This port mode on a switch enables that port to manage traffic for multiple VLANs.
What is Trunk (Trunking)?
When considering security risk, this is the first fundamental question that security testers ask.
What is "What is at risk"?
This technique can be a monumental task that requires regular attention and due diligence.
What is End-user awareness/training?
This device is programmed to support relay software, and receives the DHCP request from a client in one of it's local broadcast domains.
What is router, firewall, or Layer 3 switch?
This internet protocol uses subnetting to adjust network sizes with a given address space assignment.
What is IPv6?
These have no IP address assigned to them, and are not very expensive, but capabilities are limited and do not support VLANs.
What is an unmanaged switch?
A malware-infected file, such a free music download, or device, such as a USB flash drive, is left unguarded for someone to take and attempt to use on their own computer.
What is baiting?
An uninformed employees inadvertent missteps that causes this can result in extreme litigation expenses for a company.
What is a data-breach?
This is the least number of bits you would need to borrow from the network portion of a Class B subnet mask to get at least 130 hosts per subnet.
What is 8 bits?
This shorthand method is used for identifying network and host bits in IP addresses.
What is CIDR (Class Interdomain Routing)?
This provides network administrators with the ability to centrally manage all VLANs by making changes to a single switch.
What is a stack master?
Microsoft schedules regular security updates to Windows on the second Tuesday of the month for this holiday.
What is Patch Tuesday?
This in general accounts for so many security breaches and is often an easy way to circumvent network security.
What is human error?
