NETWORK TOPOLOGIES

 

1. Bus Topology:

          Nodes are connected to a single, shared cable, like a backbone.

          Data travels in one direction along the cable, accessible to all nodes.

          Simple and inexpensive to set up.

          Vulnerable to cable failure, as it can disrupt the entire network.


2. Star Topology:

          Nodes connect to a central hub or switch, forming a star-like pattern.

          Data flows through the central device, managing and routing traffic.

          Easy to manage, troubleshoot, and expand.

          If the central device fails, the entire network is affected


3. Ring Topology:

          Nodes form a closed loop, with each node connected to two neighboring nodes.

          Data travels in one direction around the ring.

          Efficient for passing tokens or messages in a specific order.

          Failure of one node can disrupt the entire network.


4. Tree Topology:

          Combines features of bus and star topologies, forming a hierarchical structure.

          A central device (root) connects to multiple nodes (branches), which can have further branches.

Suitable for large networks with multiple levels of hierarchy.


5. Mesh Topology:

          Nodes connect directly to multiple other nodes, creating a web-like structure.

          Provides redundant paths for data, making it highly fault-tolerant.

          Complex to set up and manage, often used in backbone networks.


6. Hybrid Topology:

Combines two or more topologies to create a customized network structure.

          Offers flexibility and can address specific network requirements.

          Common examples include star-bus and star-ring topologies.

DOS AND DDOS ATTACK

A Dos (Denial-Of-Service) Attack and A DDOS (Distributed Denial-Of-Service) Attack Are Both Attempts to Make a Computer System or Network Resource Unavailable to Legitimate Users. However, They Differ in How They Achieve This: Dos Attack: Imagine A Single Person Throwing Rocks at A Castle Gate. A This Person Represents the Attacker, And the Rocks Represent the Malicious Traffic. The Castle Gate Represents the Target System or Network Resource. The Attacker Keeps Throwing Rocks, Trying to Overwhelm the Gate's Defenses and Gain Entry. Dos Attacks Are Typically Launched from A Single System. They Can Be Effective Against Small Systems or Networks, But Larger Systems Can Often Withstand Them. DDos Attack: Imagine An Army Throwing Rocks at A Castle Gate. This Army Represents the Attacker, And the Rocks Represent the Malicious Traffic. The Castle Gate Represents the Target System or Network Resource. The Attackers Coordinate Their Attack, Throwing Rocks from Multiple Directions at Once. ...

CSST COURSE 1.0

Q1. WHAT IS A ADDRESSING. Network addressing is like a two-part delivery system:   Logical Addressing (IP): This is like your permanent address (e.g., 192.168.1.1) that lets data find your device anywhere on the internet. Physical Addressing (MAC): Think of this as a unique ID for your device's network card (AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF) used for local delivery within your network. Q2. WHAT IS A PACKET AND FRAME . Packets: Layer: Network Layer (Layer 3) Content: The actual data you want to send, like an email, a video, or website information. Addressing: Contains logical addresses (IP addresses) to identify the sender and receiver on the network. Size: Can vary depending on the data type, but generally larger than frames. Travels across networks: Packets can travel across different networks, like the internet, as they are routed based on IP addresses. Frames: Layer: Data Link Layer (Layer 2) Content: The packet wrapped with additional information for local deliver...
