Parent topics
- Computer networking media sharing protocols [r]: Computer network protocols that mediate the access of multiple devices to a common physical medium; the data link layer in the Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model but part of the interface layer in the Internet Protocol Suite [e]
Subtopics
- Medium access control [r]: The set of protocols and administrative conventions that let multiple computers or communications devices share a common network medium, usually referring to a local area network medium, but also an area of radio communications on a given part of the electromagnetic spectrum [e]
- Address Resolution Protocol [r]: TCP/IP protocol used to obtain a node's physical address. [e]
- Autonomous System [r]: A set of routers and Internet Protocol addresses, under one or more administrative managers, that present a common routing policy to the Internet routing system via the Border Gateway Protocol [e]
- Internet [r]: International "network of networks" that connects computers together through the Internet Protocol Suite and supports applications like Email and the World Wide Web. [e]
- Virtual private network [r]: The emulation of a private Wide Area Network (WAN) facility using IP facilities, including the public Internet or private IP backbones. [e]
- Extranet [r]: A predefined set of networked computers, under the control of different enterprises, that can communicate with one another for well-defined, secure application processing. [e]
- Intranet [r]: A set of networked computers, under one administration, which can only communicate with one another. [e]
- Femtocell [r]: Low-power wireless access points that operate in licensed spectrum to connect standard mobile devices to a mobile operator’s network using residential DSL or cable broadband connections (http://femtoforum.org) [e]
- Link-local [r]: Computer information that has destination addresses unique only on a shared transmission medium, either wired or wireless. Think "house number" that can repeat on multiple unique "streets". [e]
- Multi-Protocol Label Switching [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Asynchronous Transfer Mode [r]: A technology for the transfer of fixed-length "cells" of digital information through specialized cell switches built on top of optical transmission networks; increasingly obsolescent [e]
- Frame relay [r]: A layer 2 digital data transmission system, used for low to medium speed permanent connection in the wide area, and beginning to be replaced by MPLS [e]
- Local area network [r]: A range of techniques for interconnecting multiple computers, over physical media such as wire or over wireless radio, within a limited geographic area, typically multiples of 100 meters. [e]
- Bridge (computer network) [r]: A relay that makes forwarding plane decisions based on MAC addresses or other link-local address information [e]
- Self-organizing network [r]: A set of cooperating elements that announce themselves, learn of other nodes of interest, and build interconnections, without the need for central control or manual administration. [e]
- Mobile ad hoc networking [r]: A family of mobile computing techniques in which not only the hosts move, sometimes at supersonic speed, but the routers and other devices organizing them into networks also move [e]
- Small and home office [r]: A computing and networking environment characterized by a small number of computers, telephones, and video outputs; a lack of professional systems administration staff; and difficulty in cabling to computers elsewhere on the premises [e]
- Radio Frequency Identification [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Addressing [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Anycasting [r]: A technique for increasing load distribution and fault tolerance in networks with multiple copies of a read-only server function, but with the same unicast address. [e]
- Multicasting [r]: In networking, the transmission of a piece of information such that its destination address is recognized by multiple targets of a multicast group. Broadcasting is a special case of the multicast group, when the group contains all addresses. [e]
