Network requirements

2. Variability in packet arrival times, often affecting real-time communications.
3. (Quality of Service): Mechanisms to prioritize certain types of traffic to ensure performance.
6. (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol): Automatically assigns IP addresses to devices on a network.
9. Additional resources or paths to ensure network reliability in case of failure.
10. A network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic.
13. (Network Address Translation): Allows multiple devices on a private network to share a single public IP address.
17. The actual rate of successful data transfer across a network.
19. The time it takes for a data packet to travel from the source to the destination.
20. The maximum rate of data transfer across a network.

1. Dividing a network into smaller, more manageable pieces.
4. Measures to protect data and resources from unauthorized access or attacks.
5. The ability of a network to grow and handle increased load.
7. Loss: The percentage of packets that are lost during transmission.
8. (Domain Name System): Translates domain names into IP addresses.
11. (Virtual Private Network): A secure tunnel for transmitting data across public networks.
12. Sensitivity: The degree to which an application is affected by delays in network communication.
14. The process of selecting paths in a network along which to send data packets.
15. The arrangement of various elements (links, nodes) in a network.
16. Addressing: The assignment of unique identifiers to devices on a network.
18. Balancing: Distributing network traffic across multiple servers to ensure stability.
