Across
- 1. sign that there is a problem on a computer network ; between 169.254.0.0 to 169.254.255.255
- 5. layer 2 PDU
- 6. a protocol that allows a node on a computer network to request an IPv4 address assignment from an external server ; an option for dynamically configuring a node with an IPv4 address on a computer network
- 8. the address of the Router's Interface (port) through which all traffic of your Local Area Network goes to the Internet
- 9. rack mounted pieces of equipment that provide another layer of fault tolerance to a communications rack setup
- 11. World's largest association of technical professionals focused on education & advancement of telecommunications & computer engineering.
- 12. this topology is when all nodes are connected via a common & shared link ; advantages: simple design and linear architecture, easy to extend ; disadvantages: performance suffers, bandwidth is shared, if there is a break in the main cable then entire computer network shuts down
- 13. group of computers or other devices that use a common set of communication protocols over digital interconnections for the purpose of sharing resources
- 16. rapid transmission of bits in a series
Down
- 2. not routable over the Internet & is primarily assigned to a node on an internal computer network ; can be reused for different internal computer networks
- 3. the degree to which our computer networks can suffer degradation in operations due to some type of failure but still maintain mission capable functionality
- 4. this topology is when all nodes connect to each other ; advantages: full redundancy, decreased latency ; disadvantages: expensive, requires more administrative oversight
- 5. leading series of bits ; contains a source & destination address field to assist in the frame getting to its destination
- 6. _____ layer of the OSI model ; responsible for taking a packet and encapsulating it inside of a frame before it is transmitted over the physical layer as a bitstream on a computer network.
- 7. a mechanism that allows nodes or pieces of network equipment to have both an IPv4 & IPv6 address associated to them
- 10. Principal technical development & standard settings organization for the Internet. Focused on development of voluntary standards & those related to the TCP/IP Internet protocol suite
- 14. devices that are in some way connected to a computer network ; also referred to as hosts or clients depending on the situation ; (Ex: IP phones, computers)
- 15. primarily used for troubleshooting nodes on a computer network ; utilizes echo reply requests to determine connectivity ; command syntax "ping"
- 17. a protocol that provides mechanisms for collecting & organizing information from participating nodes on a computer network ; provides the capability to change configuration options for devices & establish configuration baselines on a computer network
