What Is A Node And Links?
In a network the devices at different endpoint located at a different location are called nodes and the physical communication medium they using is called links.
What Is The Hello Protocol Used For?
The HELLO protocol uses time instead of distance to determine optimal routing. It is an alternative to the Routing Information Protocol.
What Are The Three Type Of Routing Tables And What Are The Advantages And Disadvantages Of These?
The three types of routing tables are fixed, dynamic, and fixed central.
A fixed table must be manually modified every time there is a change.
A dynamic table changes its information based on network traffic, reducing the amount of manual maintenance.
A fixed central table lets a manager modify only one table, which is then read by other devices. The fixed central table reduces the need to update each machine's table, as with the fixed table. Usually a dynamic table causes the fewest problems for a network administrator, although the table's contents can change without the administrator being aware of the change.
What Is Packet Filter?
Packet filter is a standard router equipped with some extra functionality. The extra functionality allows every incoming or outgoing packet to be inspected. Packets meeting some criterion are forwarded normally. Those that fail the test are dropped.
Bootp Helps A Disk Less Workstation Boot. How Does It Get A Message To The Network Looking For Its Ip Address And The Location Of Its Operating System Boot Files?
BOOTP sends a UDP message with a subnet work broadcast address and waits for a reply from a server that gives it the IP address. The same message might contain the name of the machine that has the boot files on it. If the boot image location is not specified, the workstation sends another UDP message to query the server.
What Is A Dns Resource Record?
DNS resource record is an entry in a name server's database. There are several types of resource records used, including name-to-address resolution information. Resource records are maintained as ASCII files.

Describe Various Network Type?
Local Area Networks Local area networks (LANs) are used to connect networking devices that are in a very close geographic area, such as a floor of a building, a building itself, or a campus environment.
Wide Area Networks Wide area networks (WANs) are used to connect LANs together. Typically, WANs are used when the LANs that must be connected are separated by a large distance.
Metropolitan Area Networks A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a hybrid between a LAN and a WAN.
Content Networks Content networks (CNs) were developed to ease users’ access to Internet resources. Companies deploy basically two types of CNs:
1.Caching downloaded Internet information
2.Distributing Internet traffic loads across multiple servers
Storage Area Networks Storage area networks (SANs) provide a high-speed infrastructure to move data between storage devices and file servers.
Advantage
Performance is fast.
Availability is high because of the redundancy features available.
Distances can span up to 10 kilometers.
Management is easy because of the centralization of data resources.

Define Fully Qualified Domain Name And Partially Qualified Domain Name
In hierarchical namespace, names are defined in an invertedtree structure with the root at the top. The tree can have only 128 levels: level 0 (root) to level 127. Each node in the tree has a label, which is a string with a maximum of 63 characters. The root label is a null string (empty string). In this tree, all the labels have a different name, which guarantee the uniqueness of the domain names. A full domain name is a sequence of labels separated by dots (.). The domain names are always read from the node up to the root.
Fully Qualified Domain Name
If a label is terminated by a null string or empty string, it is called a fully qualified domain name (FQDN).
Partially Qualified Domain Name
If a label is not terminated by a null string, it is called a partially qualified domain name (PQDN). A PQDN starts from a node, but it does not end with the root.
Describe Attenuation, Distortion, And Noise In Brief?
Attenuation: When a signal travels through a medium, it loses some of its energy due to resistance of the medium. This loss of energy is called the Attenuation. This is the reason why a wire carrying electric signals gets warm. Some of the electrical energy in the signal is converted to heat. To overcome this problem, amplifiers are used to amplify the signal. Unit of the decibel is used to find out if a signal has lost or gained strength. The decibel (dB) measures the relative strengths of two signals or one signal at two different points. If decibel is negative then a signal is attenuated and if the positive signal is amplified.
Formula: Where PI and P2 are the variable and the powers of a signal at points 1 and 2, respectively.
Distortion: When the signal travels through the medium from one point to another it may chance to change the form or shape of the signal. It is called distortion. Distortion can occur in a composite signal made up of different frequencies. Each signal component has its own propagation speed through a traveling medium and, therefore, its own delay in reaching the final destination. Means signal components at the receiver have phases different from what they had at the sender.
Noise: The third cause of impairment is Noise. Following types of noise are possible.
Thermal noise.
Induced noise.
Crosstalk noise.
Impulse noise.
This noise may corrupt the signal.Thermal noise is produced due to the random motion of electrons in a wire which creates an extra signal not originally sent by the transmitter. Induced noise comes from sources such as motors and other electronic appliances. These devices act as a sending antenna, and the transmission medium acts as the receiving antenna. Crosstalk is the effect of one wire on the other. Impulse noise comes from power lines, lightning etc.
In a network the devices at different endpoint located at a different location are called nodes and the physical communication medium they using is called links.
