The four TCP/IP protocols are the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), the Internet Protocol (IP), the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP). The four types of TCP/IP are the Application Layer, Transport Layer, Internet Layer, and Network Access Layer. The four core protocols in the TCP/IP suite are the Transmission Control … Read more
A subnet IP refers to a portion of an IP address that is used for subnetting. Subnetting is the process of dividing a larger IP network into smaller sub-networks or subnets to improve network efficiency, security, and management. The subnet IP identifies a specific subnet within the larger IP network. The subnet of an IP … Read more
The principle of SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is to manage and monitor network devices and their functions. It allows network administrators to centrally manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth. SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for managing devices on IP networks. It works by … Read more
A valid DNS domain name follows specific rules and conventions set by the Domain Name System (DNS). It consists of alphanumeric characters (letters A-Z, numbers 0-9, and hyphens), separated by dots. It must start and end with a letter or number, with a maximum length of 63 characters per label and a total maximum length … Read more
An SNMP management system is a framework used to manage and monitor network devices such as routers, switches, servers, and printers. It consists of an SNMP manager, which communicates with SNMP agents on network devices to collect and organize information about the network’s performance and health. SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used … Read more
Load balancing APIs refers to distributing incoming API requests across multiple backend servers or resources to optimize performance, ensure high availability, and prevent overload on any single server. It improves the efficiency of handling API traffic by evenly distributing requests based on predefined algorithms or metrics such as server load, response time, or server capacity. … Read more
VPN security refers to the measures and protocols implemented by Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of data transmitted over public networks. VPNs utilize encryption technologies and secure tunneling protocols to create a private and encrypted connection between a user’s device and a remote server or network. This prevents unauthorized … Read more
Simple Network Mail Protocol (SNMP) is a likely typographical error, as there is no protocol by this name. SNMP stands for Simple Network Management Protocol, which is used for network management. The SNMP protocol is a standardized protocol used for managing and monitoring devices on IP networks. It facilitates the exchange of management information between … Read more
NAT (Network Address Translation) is a method used in networking to allow multiple devices on a local private network to access external networks (such as the internet) using a single public IP address. NAT translation works by modifying the IP address information in IP packet headers as they pass through a router or firewall device. … Read more
FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is a standard network protocol used for transferring files between a client and a server on a computer network. It operates on the application layer of the TCP/IP protocol suite and supports both anonymous and authenticated access. The FTP protocol governs how files are transferred and managed between the client … Read more
