This technique of transferring the information from one computer network to another network is known as switching. Switching in a computer network is achieved by using switches. A switch is a small hardware device which is used to join multiple computers together with one local area network (LAN). Network switches operate at layer 2 (Data link ...
A client and server networking model is a model in which computers such as servers provide the network services to the other computers such as clients to perform a user based tasks. This model is known as client-server networking model. An application program is known as a client program, running on the local machine that requests for a service ...
The transport layer is a 4 th layer from the top. The main role of the transport layer is to provide the communication services directly to the application processes running on different hosts. The transport layer provides a logical communication between application processes running on different hosts. Although the application processes on ...
It is a carrier sense multiple access/ collision detection network protocol to transmit data frames. The CSMA/CD protocol works with a medium access control layer. Therefore, it first senses the shared channel before broadcasting the frames, and if the channel is idle, it transmits a frame to check whether the transmission was successful. If ...
An adaptive routing algorithm is also known as dynamic routing algorithm. This algorithm makes the routing decisions based on the topology and network traffic. The main parameters related to this algorithm are hop count, distance and estimated transit time. An adaptive routing algorithm can be classified into three parts: Centralized algorithm ...
The extended data is transmitted across the network. Suppose L is the total sum of the data segments, then the checksum would be ?L The Sender follows the given steps: The block unit is divided into k sections, and each of n bits.
The Network Layer is the third layer of the OSI model. It handles the service requests from the transport layer and further forwards the service request to the data link layer. It determines the route from the source to the destination and also manages the traffic problems such as switching, routing and controls the congestion of data packets.
