Types of Networks Title of Paper Networks are the connections between two devices. How they are interconnected changes the type of network‚ while the principle is the same as our communication. Networks are made to exchange information in the shortest path possible with the best replication of the original data. Local Area Networks (LAN)‚ Wide Area Networks (WAN)‚ Campus Area Networks (CAN)‚ Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN) and Home Area Networks (HAN) are all varieties of how devices can be interconnected

BUTTERFLY NETWORK Butterfly network is a network with 2q nodes and q + 1 columns as an unfolded q-cube in order to facilitate the discussion‚ visualization‚ and analysis of hypercube routing algorithms. However‚ a butterfly network can be viewed as a parallel processing architecture in its own right. A butterfly architecture (Fig. A‚ left) has p = 2 q(q + 1) processors of maximum degree d = 4‚ a diameter of 2q = ∪(log p)‚ and a bisection width of ( – 1)2 q+1 + 0(2 q) = ∪(p/log p). A wrapped

From a cold start‚ the ROM chip performs a POST to make sure that all the hardware is functioning properly. Then a bootstrap program is loaded from ROM. The bootstrap program is responsible for locating and loading the operating system or IOS. By default‚ the bootstrap program first looks in flash memory. If flash is empty‚ it broadcasts for a TFTP server to see whether the router can download in IOS. Finally‚ if both of these attempts fail‚ the bootstrap program loads the basic

The proposed network is designed to serve The Banana Tree Travel Agency and remote site office. The proposed office located in Cairo‚ Egypt will have two employees to better serve their international customers. The second site will have a 12 port patch panel‚ a 12 port Cisco switch‚ a Cisco router‚ and a Cisco ASA. The building adjacent to the main office‚ which is part of the same domain/network‚ will house 10 to 15 more travel agents. I will set up a file server so all users can have access to

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
