NETWORK IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

1) What is the difference between a a router and gateway
Ans.: Gateway: A gateway generally operates at the top levels of OSI architecture.
It is used to translate information between two completely different network architectures.
Routers: Routers have access only up to network layer and particularly used to connect different Local Area Networks(LANS).

2) What is a brouter?
Ans.: Brouter= BRIDGES+ ROUTERS.

3) In networking, what is meant by RAID method?
Ans.: RAID= It is a method that is used to provide fault tolerance using multiple hard disk drives.

4) Application of Logical Link Control layer(LLC)
Ans.: It is a sub layer of Data link layer of OSI model of IEEE 802 standard.

Ans.: Beaconing is a technique used by token-ring/FDDI network to self repair itself.

9) What is baud rate?
Ans.: Baud Rate means number of signals transferred per second
Baud rate= bit rate/N

10) What is the use of Bridges and routers.
Ans.: Bridges: They work on Physical and Data link layers of LANS of same type.
Routers: They help to relay packets among interconnected multiple network(LANS of different type).
