This link layer device forwards frames based on MAC addresses, unlike a Hub that sends frames to all connected devices.

What is a Switch?

100

This protocol determines the best path to a destination based on the "distance" or number of hops (routers) between the source and the destination.

What is RIP?

100

This type of switching establishes a dedicated communication path before data transfer begins.

What is circuit switching?

100

Sometimes called digital certificate. it is used to establish an encrypted connection between a browser or user’s computer and a server or website.

What is SSL?

100

This link-layer error detection method involves sending extra bits with each frame to detect transmission errors.

What is Checksum?

200

The piece of network hardware that operates at the link layer and connects devices within a LAN.

What is switch?

200

Push protocol used for emails. This protocol is used to send email, other protocols like POP3 and IMAP are used to retrieve or download email from the server to your device.

What is SMTP?

200

Last layer in the TCP/IP model?

What is LINK (PHYSICAL) layer?

200

The primary protocol used to send data between a web browser and a website. This protocol encrypts the data in order to increase security of transmission. This is particularly important when users transmit sensitive data, such as by logging into a bank account, email service, or health insurance provider.

What is https?

200

This protocol works on IP networks, assigning IP addresses to devices and hosts connected to the network. It also allows them to communicate with each other efficiently.

What is DHCP?

300

The difference between the type of addressing used at the Link Layer and the Network Layer.

What is MAC Address vs. IP Address?

300

This application layer protocol translates the domain name into IP addresses

What is DNS?

300

The hardware that connects networks. The shortest available route that a packet may take is chosen by this type of network device.

What is ROUTER?

300

A transport layer protocol that is connection-oriented and reliable protocol. It establishes a connection between two hosts before sending any data, ensuring that all data is delivered in the correct order without any loss.

What is TCP?

300

Pull protocol used for emails. Cannot be used when wanting to access emails from different devices.

What is POP3?

400

TCP protocol is responsible for ensuring packets arrive in the right order and with no errors. A 32-bit number used to identify the order of data bytes in a TCP segment. It's a fundamental part of TCP's reliable data transfer mechanism.

What is SEQUENCE ID?

400

A transport layer protocol that is connectionless and unreliable protocol. It sends data packets, called datagrams, without first establishing a connection. It doesn't guarantee delivery, order, or integrity of the data.

What is UDP?

400

This protocol allows e-mails to be downloaded from the server's inbox to your computer. Therefore, your emails are available even when you're not connected to the server.

What is POP?

400

A text-based application layer protocol that facilitates remote computer access. It provides a bidirectional interactive text-oriented communication facility using a virtual terminal connection.

What is TELNET?

400

This protocol is used only between the client who is retrieving the email and the server where the emails are stored. With this protocol, you can search through your e-mail messages for keywords while the messages are still on mail server.

What is IMAP?

500

This is the name of the maximum amount of data that can be carried inside the payload of a frame.

What is Maximum Transition Unit?

500

A standard that allows various types of data to be sent through email. On the application layer, this protocol extends the capabilities of simple email protocols like SMTP.

What is MIME?

500

It is a count of the number of routers a packet has traversed from its source to its destination. The path with the fewest hops is considered the "best" and is used to route the packet.

What is HOP?

500

An application layer protocol that uses cryptography in order to secure network services over unsecured networks. It allows the user to connect a remote compuer/server and run programs, send recevie data from a distance securely.

What is SSH?

500

It contains the actual data transmitted, control information, error detection codes and special bit patterns for the start and end of it.

What is a frame?
