Term
Features of TCP
Definition
"Reliable", "Connection-Oriented", uses Acks, guaranteed delivery
Term
Features of UDP
Definition
"Unreliable", "Connectionless", Just sends it out toward the remote host and then forgets about it; no guarantee of delivery
Term
The TCP Three Way Handshake
Definition
SYN)-->
SYN-ACK<--
ACK-->
Term
what is CSMA/CD
Definition
Carrier Sense Multiple access/Collision Detection
Term
MAC addresses
Definition
48bits: 12*4bit hexadecimal digits
Term
Usable Dist of:
CAT5
Multi-Mode fibre
Single-Mode fibre
Definition
0m - 100m

Term
When to use a Crossover cable
Definition
Like Devices:
Router-Router
Swith/Hub-Switch/Hub
Host-Host
Router-Host
Term
When to use a Straight-through cable
Definition
Unlike Devices:
Router-Switch/Hub
Host-Switch/Hub
Term
How Ethernet matches up to OSI model, from bottom
Definition
PHYSICAL: cabling (i.e. CAT5, Fiber, wireless)

DATA LINK:
-MAC addresses;
-LLC: Dictates which direction for the data to go into the NETWORK layer
Term
CSMA/CD function
Definition
Employed within a single COLLISION DOMAIN.
-Hosts listen to the network and only transmit when no one else is transmitting
-If two hosts transmit at the same time, all hosts must wait a random time before transmitting again to avoid a collision.
Term
Collision Domains
Definition
Generally created by HUBS. ALL messages are sent to ALL hosts. One host can communicate at a time. Half Duplex
Term
Bridges
Definition
Split collision domains, significantly reducing collisions.
Term
Switches
Definition
Multi-port bridges;
Each port is its own collision domain.
Full duplex.
Operates at Layer 2 - Data Link
Term
T568-A Pinout
Definition

Term
T569-B Pinout
Definition

Os,O,Gs,BL,BLs,G,BRs,BR

[image]

Term
Config for Connecting to Serial Port
Definition

Baud:9600

Data Bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop Bits: 1

Flow Control: None

Term
Switch physical light indicator modes
Definition

System: green good, amber bad

RPS: "Redundant Power Supply"

STAT: Each interface will light up and blink when connected/handling data

UTIL: All lights are used as a percentage scale of activity

DUPLEX: On for full duplex; Off for half duplex

SPEED: On for 100Mbit, Off for 10Mbit

Term
The process of finding/joining a wireless network
Definition
-client issues probe
-access points respond with a beacon
-client associates with its chosen ssid
-access point adds client MAC address to association table
Term
The DHCP process between client and server
Definition
DHCP DISCOVER --> (BROADCAST)
DHCP OFFER <-- (UNI)
DHCP REQUEST --> (UNI)
DHCP ACK <-- (UNI)
Term
how the TCP window size is determined
Definition
the sender increases the window size until there is a failure. This causes the window size to decrease.
Term
what the TCP window size is
Definition
The maximum number of packet the sender can send without receiving an acknowledgement.
