How Does Internet Work

When we want to configure some of the networking devices, we usually connect to the device with laptop, directly with console cable. This is the best way to set up the device for the first time, and it may be the only way. It’s because, first thing’s first, we need to setup the device to make it possible for us to communicate with other devices on the network. And then, when the router or the switch are ready to communicate, the best way to make all future changes is by doing it from a certain remote centralized location,by simply connecting to the devices using Telnet or SSH. This is because we don’t need to be literally in front of the device to configurate it; we can be on the other side of the network and remotely connect.

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol – SMTP is used as an internet standard for the transmission of e-mails in case of an IP (internet protocol network) network.

In this article we will help you understand Cisco IOS and Juniper JUNOS command line configurational modes that are first thing that you must know if you want to get into Cisco or Juniper device configuration. This modes will enable you to access different levels of configuration. In this manner you will be allowed to set the device up and running.

UTP Cables

Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) is a famous category of the cables that are used in creating a network.

SWITCH

A switch can be used in the local area network (LAN) as a multi-port bridge device. Under discussion mechanism works at the Layer2 (data-link) of the OSI reference model.

Collisions

What are collisions and how they happen? In Ethernet world, the result of two nodes transmitting in the same time.

From the computer networking point of view, a packet is referred to a planned data unit. But certain computer communication links such as point to point communication don’t support data packets. In such cases, data is simply transmitted as an array of bytes or characters etc over the medium. Anyway, transformation of data into packets is a good way to achieve better bitrate of a communication medium in the course of sharing data amongst the users.
