NETWORK TOPOLOGIES PRESENTED BY Alex Daniel Manjula Sanjana NandaKumar Sher Mohammed Babul Sriram Vamsi Vinodhini © 2013 Maveric Systems Limited WHAT IS A TOPOLOGY ? © 2013 Maveric Systems Limited WHAT IS A TOPOLOGY ? ▸ In computer networking‚ topology refers to the layout of connected devices. ▸ Network topologies describe the ways in which the elements of a network are mapped. They describe the physical and logical arrangement of the network nodes. ▸ Topology can also be defined as the

CSMA is susceptible to the hidden node problem‚ especially in so called ad hoc networks where a node may communicate directly with every other node in range or using intermediate nodes as relays otherwise. Hidden nodes cause costly packet collisions and thus significantly affect network performance. In order to combat the hidden node problem‚ a mechanism known as Request to Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) handshake is often used. RTS/CTS mechanism is supported in the IEEE 802.11 family of standards. The

Network management incorporates an almost unlimited list of duties—basically‚ doing whatever it takes to keep the network running smoothing and efficiently‚ with minimal or no downtime. Network Management Network Management defined as 1. 2. 3. 4. Network management is more than just managing networks. Network management is presented from the perspectives of service management‚ operations support systems‚ and business management. The platform for a network management

Network Security Some DoS attacks can be avoided by applying vendor patches to the software that has been compromised. Another way to deal with DoS attacks in the case of an attack coming from a number of known IP addresses is to put up a rule to drop all incoming traffic from those known attackers. Yet another way to deal with these types of attacks is to set up packet filters. This will act as a proxy for connections. Once the handshake is validated it will be forwarded to the correct destination

There is nothing more important in any business than securing your network topology from hardware‚ design and software. This plan is called network hardening and this plan needs to be incredibly detailed with how the network will be secured in each area. The first step to the network hardening plan resides in how you will build the network and then from there how you will secure each section of the network. This paper will discuss access control measures‚ encryption‚ PKI‚ certificates‚ OS hardening

in the protection of assets. No computer system or network achieves perfect security; even a system switched off with its hard drive removed sunken in a lead case in the bottom of a deep pool in an underground facility lacks security‚ as it guarantees integrity and confidentiality but completely sacrifices availability. As a security professional‚ you must understand the risks a network faces; you must‚ in essence‚ know how to bring the network down‚ to steal the data you want‚ and to falsify important

by aligning the workers with its goals and objectives. Before rolling out any training‚ the organization determines what its needs are and what the training objectives are. Once determined‚ the organization selects the training method. There are various types of training methods‚ some methods work for organizations‚ while others do not. Ivancevich (2010) notes that the most widely used method of training is on-the-job training. “It is estimated that more than 60 percent of training occurs on

However‚ with daily technology advancements made in society and the requirement for global data connectivity‚ satellites are increasingly being used to provide data communication links at all data rates ranging from 64 Kbps to 155 Mbps (Buchsbaum). Wireless technology allows data to be sent out into space to a satellite and back to earth to provide connectivity among many different network clients. The
