Today, the world is connected to the Internet and billions of data are being shared through a wireless network. All of these are done using TCP/IP protocol which uses a three-way handshake and flow control to initiate, terminate the connection, and send and receive data packets. Flow control is an important concept in Computer Networks as it provides reliable ...
Sockets in computer networks are used for allowing the transmission of information between two processes of the same machines or different machines in the network. The socket is the combination of IP address and software port number used for communication between multiple processes. Socket helps to recognize the address of the application to which data is to be sent using ...
IEEE stands for Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. The main AIM of IEEE is to foster technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity. The IEEE standards in computer networks ensure communication between various devices; it also helps to make sure that the network service, i.e., the Internet and its related technologies, must follow a set of ...
Access control is a data security method that allows organizations to manage who has access to their resources and data. Secure access control uses policies that ensure users are who they claim they are and are provided with the appropriate levels of access control. Along with providing access control features, Network access control (NAC) also covers ...
The RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a distance-vector routing protocol. Routers that use the distance-vector protocol send all or a portion of their routing tables to their neighbors in routing-update messages. The Routing Information Protocol employs a distance vector algorithm to determine which path a packet should take to reach its destination. Each RIP router maintains its ...
Digital signatures allow us to verify the author, date, and time of signatures and authenticate the message contents. To verify the integrity and validity of digital messages and documents, it employs a cutting-edge mathematical technique. It helps us combat the issue of impersonation and tampering in digital communications and ensures that the contents of a message are ...
TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol and is a suite of communication protocols that makes data exchange between two devices possible. TCP/IP specifies how data should be packetized, addressed, transmitted, routed, and received on a network by providing end-to-end communication. As compared to the OSI model, which is a theoretical model, TCP/IP is an application and practical ...
A device on the internet or a local network can be identified by its IP address, which is a special address. An endpoint device in an IPv6 network is identified by an IPv6 address, which is a 128-bit alphanumeric value. It offers Efficient Routing as well as a sufficient quantity of unique IP addresses. What is ...
MQTT stands for Message Queuing Telemetry Transport and is a lightweight publish/subscribe messaging protocol for Machine to Machine(M2M) telemetry in low bandwidth environments. It was developed in 1999 by Arlen Nipper and Andy Stanford-Clark of IBM to link Oil Pipeline telemetry systems through satellite. It was once a proprietary protocol, but in 2010 MQTT was made available royalty-free, and in 2014 MQTT was made an OASIS standard. MQTT ...
Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) comprises communication standards facilitating the concurrent digital transmission of voice, video, and data over traditional public switched telephone network circuits. Unlike its predecessor, which primarily transmitted voice, ISDN’s innovation lies in integrating speech and data on the same lines, a capability absent in traditional telephone systems. Operating as a circuit-switched ...
