🗑
|
||||
| active topology | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Logically grouped network nodes that can communicate directly via broadcast transmissions. For example, all nodes connected to a single hub and all nodes that participate in a bus-topology network belong to a single broadcast domain.
🗑
|
||||
| show | The single cable connecting all devices in a bus topology.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A topology in which a single cable connects all nodes on a network without intervening connectivity devices.
🗑
|
||||

|
||||
| circuit switching | show 🗑
|
||||
| collapsed backbone | show 🗑
|

|
||||
| show | The portion of an Ethernet network in which collisions could occur if two nodes transmit data at the same time.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A network access method specified for use by IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet) networks. In CSMA/CD, each node waits its turn before transmitting data to avoid interfering with other nodes’ transmissions.
🗑
|
||||
| daisy chain | show 🗑
|
||||
| data propagation delay | show 🗑
|
||||
| distributed backbone | show 🗑
|
||||

|
||||
| logical topology | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A type of switching in which a connection is established between two devices in the connection path; one device transfers data to the second device, then breaks the connection.
🗑

|
||||
| modal bandwidth | show 🗑
|
||||
| multiprotocol label switching | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A type of switching in which data is broken into packets before it is transported. In packet switching, packets can travel any path on the network to their destination, because each packet contains a destination address and sequencing information.
🗑
|
||||
| show | The bytes added to the data (or information) portion of an Ethernet frame to ensure this field is at least 46 bytes in size. Padding has no effect on the data carried by the frame.
🗑
|
||||
| parallel backbone | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A network topology in which each node passively listens for, then accepts, data directed to it. A bus topology is considered a passive topology.

🗑
|
||||
| physical topology | show 🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| show | A type of backbone that consists of two or more internetworking devices connected to each other by a single cable in a daisy chain. Hubs are often connected in this way to extend a network.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A 1-byte field that indicates where the data field begins in an Ethernet frame.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A phenomenon, caused by improper termination on a bus-topology network, in which signals travel endlessly between the two ends of the network, preventing new signals from getting through.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A physical topology in which every node on the network is connected through a central device, such as a hub. Any single physical wire on a star network connects only two devices, so a cabling problem will affect only two nodes.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A hybrid topology in which groups of workstations are connected in a star fashion to hubs that are networked via a single bus.
🗑
|
||||
| star-wired ring topology | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A component of a network’s logical topology that manages how packets are filtered and forwarded between nodes on the network.
🗑
|
||||
| terminator | show 🗑
