Cards

Term

TCP

Definition

____ is a connection-oriented, guaranteed-delivery protocol used to send data packets between computers over a network such as the Internet.

Term

TCP

Definition

____ is responsible for breaking up data into datagrams, reassembling them at the other end, resending data lost in transit, and resequencing data.

Term

IP

Definition

____ is a Network-layer protocol that is responsible for routing individual datagrams and addressing. Responsible for packet formats and the addressing scheme, it is a connectionless protocol and acts as an intermediary between higher protocol layers and the network.

Term

UDP

Definition

____ is a connectionless Transport-layer protocol in the Internet protocol suite. Lacks reliability, flow-control, and error-recovery functions.

Term

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)

Definition

The ____ maps an IP address to a physical or MAC address recognized within a local network.

Term

Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP)

Definition

The ____ allows a node on a LAN to discover its IP address from a router's ARP table or cache.

Term

Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)

Definition

The ____ is used with IP that attempts to report on the condition of a connection between two nodes.

Term

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)

Definition

The ____ is a protocol in the TCP/IP suite that supports multicasting in a routed environment. It is used to inform all systems on a network as to what host currently belongs to which multicast group.

Term

network address

Definition

A ____ is a protocol-specific identifier assigned to a node. It typically includes two parts: the first part identifies the network, and the second identifies a node on the network.

Term

network name

Definition

A ____ is a name assigned to a node to help users and technicians recognize the device more easily.

Term

Subnetting

Definition

____ is the process of logically dividing a network into smaller subnetworks.

Term

Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)

Definition

An international organization called the ____ controls the leasing and distribution of IP addresses on the Internet.

Term

Class A

Definition

An address range of 1.0.0.0 to 127.255.255.255 is a ____ address range.

Term

Class B

Definition

An address range of 128.0.0.0 to 191.255.255.255 is a ____ address range.

Term

Class C

Definition

An address range of 192.0.0.0 to 233.255.255.255 is a ____ address range.

Term

Class D

Definition

An address range of 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 is a ____ address range.

Term

Class E

Definition

An address range of 240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255 is a ____ address range.

Term

Private IP Address Ranges

Definition

10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 and 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 and 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 are known as ____.

Term

default gateway

Definition

A ____ is the IP address of a router that routes remote traffic from the computer's local subnet to remote subnets.

Term

subnet mask

Definition

A ____ is a 32-bit number assigned to each host for dividing the 32-bit binary IP address into network and node portions.

Term

Flow control

Definition

____ is a technique for optimizing data exchange between systems.

Term

Buffering

Definition

____ is a flow control technique in which data received is stored on a temporary high-speed memory location, called a buffer, until the main system components are ready to work with the data.

Term

flooding

Definition

Even with a high-speed buffer, data can sometimes arrive too quickly to be handled. This situation is called ____.

Term

Error detection

Definition

____ is the process of determining if transmitted data has been received correctly and completely.

Term

Parity check

Definition

____ is a process used to detect errors in memory or data communication.

Term

Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)

Definition

____ is an error detection method in which a predefined mathematical operation is used to calculate a CRC code.
