Every computer and network device is connected to a single cable

It has a root node and all other nodes are connected to it forming a hierarchy.

Point to point connection to other nodes or devices

It consists of a mix of 2 or more topologies

It provides the necessary functions required by the user access control protocol operations

Device closest to end users

Set of nodes that can receive broadcast packets from a node

It forward data packets on the Internet

It ensure secure communication between two networks

Connects several terminals that are close to each other

It provides network services to the user's applications such as spreadsheet, word processing and bank terminal programs

It translates between multiple data formats by using common format

It defines how we start, control and end conversation between 2 hosts

It defines end-to-end delivery of packets, how routing works, and how routes are learned so that packets can be delivered

It provides access to networking media and physical transmission across media and this enables the data to locate its intended destination on a network

Key component that connects directly to a device that allows access to a network

Device that connects a network to the internet

It provides functions such as protocol conversion, route selection, and data exchange when networks using different architectures or protocols communicate with each other

Generally deployed at the aggregation layer of the entire network

(T/F) One of the disadvantages of Bus Topology is that faults on the central nodes affects the entire network

(T/F) One of the advantages of ring topology is that it is difficult to add new nodes

(T/F) In full mesh topology, some devices are only connected to 2 or 3 devices

(T/F) A firewall monitors, restricts and modifies data flow passing through it to shield information, structure and running status of internal network from public network

(T/F) Fat Access Point applies to medium and large-sized enterprises

(T/F) Technologies used in MAN are Ethernet (10 Gbits/s or 100 Gbits/s) band WiMAX

(T/F) OSI's transport layer is only connection oriented, whereas TCP/IP model is connectionless

(T/F) OSI model helps you standardize routers, switch, motherboard and other hardware, whereas TCP/IP helps you establish a connection between different types of computers

(T/F) OSI model is developed by ISO, whereas TCP/IP is developed by ARPANET
