Network simulators and network emulators are used in the research work of the computer network. A network simulator is a tool or software program that allows for analyzing the relationships between different components connected in the network. What is a Network Simulation? Network Simulator Network simulation is one of the methods used in computer network ...
Network layer design involves key challenges: routing, addressing, and forwarding. Routing protocols determine paths for data packets, balancing efficiency and reliability. Addressing assigns unique identifiers to devices. Forwarding directs packets based on addresses. Quality of Service (QoS) ensures performance levels. Security must safeguard data. Scalability addresses growth. Interoperability supports different technologies. Congestion control manages data ...
MIME in computer networks stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions. MIME is an extension of its parent protocol i.e. SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). MIME protocol is not restricted to textual data only. With the help of the MIME protocol, we can send various types of data through the internet such as text, images, audio, ...
For sending the packet to its destination we must be aware of the source MAC address and destination MAC address and source and destination IP address. The packet will be directly delivered if the destination is available in the same network otherwise the packet is sent to the default gateway first. Introduction For the successful ...
All protocol architectures that have ever been created offer multiplexing and demultiplexing features. The source port number field and the destination port number field are two unique fields that UDP and TCP use to conduct the demultiplexing and multiplexing tasks in the segment headers.Multiplexing is the act of assembling data from several application processes of ...
The Native VLAN functions as a conduit for untagged data across a trunk port. If untagged data arrives at a trunk port, the switch inherently assigns it to the native VLAN. The Native VLAN refers to the default VLAN for an Ethernet trunk (a link or port that carries traffic for multiple VLANs) when no ...
The web server provides run time for web applications and it is more relevant for the static pages whereas the application server provides runtime for the enterprise applications and it is more relevant for the dynamic pages. Apache Tomcat, Resin, etc. are examples of web servers. Weblogic, JBoss, Websphere, etc. are some of the examples ...
FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access), TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access), and CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) are three distinct multiple access techniques used in telecommunications and wireless communication systems. These are all data transmission and communication techniques. They are highly effective, but because of their unique features, they are used in various ways. Each technique has ...
Circuit switching is a connection-oriented service that sends and receives data via a dedicated path. In circuit switching, it is necessary to establish an end-to-end path before delivering any data from the source to the destination. Due to the dedicated circuit path, circuit switching has the lowest probability of data loss. Still, a lot of ...
Web browsers and servers each play a unique role in interacting with the internet. A web browser, such as Chrome or Firefox, is a tool that allows users to explore websites and view their content. On the other hand, a web server is a remote computer that hosts websites and distributes their content to browsers, ...
