Network Topologie
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A WHAT? is a visual representation of a computer or telecommunications network. It shows the components that make up a network and how they interact, including routers, devices, hubs, firewalls, etc. | network diagram |
| What? l network diagrams describes the way information flows through a network and shows subnets (including VLAN IDs, masks, and addresses) and routing protocols. | Logical |
| WHAT? of a network refers to the way the network is connected and how it communicates. | Topology |
| WHAT? topology refers to the physical interconnection of network devices. | Physical |
| This physical topology is distinguished for having all of the nodes connected by a central medium which has exactly two endpoints. | Bus |
| This physical topology consists of a central hub or switch, through which all of the data passes, along with all of the peripheral nodes connected to that central node | Star |
| In this physical topology, the nodes are only connected to the nodes they interact with most. | Partial Mesh |
| This physical topology is comprised of groups of star-configured workstations, called segments, connected to a linear bus /backbone | Bus |
| This topology is bound to network protocols | Logical |
| WHAT? t is the best known example of a logical bus topology and is associated with physical bus, star, and tree topologies. | Ethernet |
| Explain what the CSMA/CD protocol is and how it works | CS= Carrier Sense MA = Multiple Access CD = Collision Detection All computers on the network check the cable for traffic before attempting to transmit a frame of data. Data is sent only if the station doesn't "sense" any data being sent by other devices. |
| IP addresses and subnets are laid out in WHAT? diagrams. | Logical |
| A WHAT? network diagram shows the actual physical arrangement of the components that make up the network, including cables and hardware. | physical |
| Cabling types and distance, connectors and physical ports are found on a WHAT? network diagram. | physical |
| WHAT? diagrams are a network representation of a system and are the cornerstone for structured systems analysis and design | Data flow |
| Which data flow diagram symbol represents sources or destinations outside the specified system boundary? | External entities |
| . Which data flow diagram symbol represents data repositories for data that is not moving? | Data stores |
| Which data flow diagram symbol represents movement of data in the system? | Data Flows |
| Which data flow diagram symbol represents transforms of incoming data flow(s) to outgoing data flow(s)? | Processes |
| What is the function of data flow diagrams? | Illustrate data sources, destinations, flows, stores, and transformations. |
| The process of representing different detail levels on a data flow diagram is called WHAT? or WHAT | Leveling or Partitioning |
