In an IT field or any company, the computer systems are interconnected to the same server to share information among them. It follows distributed information systems, in which every computer is physically connected and connected to a common network. RPC stands for Remote Procedure Call which is a type of protocol used in the operating system for making communication over remote devices. Using the RPC message protocol, the message request is sent and after getting the reply the communication is established. Remote Procedure Call The TCP/IP or UDP comes under the low-level transport layer protocol for communication between the networks ... Read More

In the world of cyberattacks, organizations should have a trustable source to make secured file transfers. For this IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) developed a protocol named the Secured File Transfer Protocol along with the secure shell to have the strongest protection against hackers. Using this protocol, we can avoid the Man-in-the-attack which is the most vulnerable attack faced during file transfer on the internet. The transferred file is authenticated and a secured shell is provided so the hacker cannot see the password, thus reducing the threats. Secure File Transfer Protocol SFTP comes under the network layer of the OSI ... Read More

CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/ Collision Detection) is a networking protocol more precisely it is an Access protocol its standard is IEEE802.3 and used to broadcast links, widely used in Ethernet network systems. It is very effective and easy the implement. But the efficiency of CSMA/CD is an important factor that decides its usage for different types of network topologies and environments. In this article, we will explore the efficiency of CSMA/CD in terms of its capability to handle network congestion and minimize the number of collisions. Working(Basics) of CSMA/CD CSMA/CD works by detecting whether the broadcast channel is idle ... Read More

In ISO OSI layers there are seven layers, and each layer has its characteristics and its protocols. The most important second layer from the bottom is the data link layer. In this data link layer consists of two different layers and MAC is one important layer. MAC is the Medium Access Control layer. MAC layer helps to reduce the collision while transmitting the data. The main functionality of the MAC layer will act as a medium to access the shared resources in the network. So it has the control accessibility of nodes when they are in a shared medium. MAC ...

PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) and SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol) are both protocols used for serial communication between computers and network devices. While they provide comparable functions, there are several major variations between them. SLIP is a simple protocol designed for low-bandwidth point-to-point connections, whereas PPP is a more complex protocol with more features that may be used for both point-to-point and network connections. Read this article to find out more about SLIP and PPP and how they are different from each other. What is SLIP? Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP) is a basic protocol for encapsulating Internet Protocol (IP) packets ... Read More

SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) are both communication protocols used to establish and manage real- time communication sessions between two or more endpoints, such as computers or mobile devices. SIP is mainly used for establishing and managing multimedia sessions over the internet, such as voice and video conversations. XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) is a real-time communication protocol used for instant messaging (IM) and the exchange of presence information. Read this article to find out more about SIP and XMPP and how they are different from each other. What is SIP? SIP is ... Read More

The file transfer protocols SFTP and SCP are used to safely send files between computers over a network. While these protocols provide comparable functions, there are some differences between them. SCP (Secure Copy) is a simple file transfer protocol that is commonly seen on UNIX systems. SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is a more advanced SSH- based file transfer protocol. Read this article to find out more about SFTP and SCP and how they are different from each other. What is SFTP? SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is a secure file transfer protocol based on the SSH (Secure Shell) protocol. ... Read More

PPPoE and PPPoA are two protocols for connecting to the internet through DSL technology. Both protocols allow you to authenticate and connect to your internet service provider (ISP) over a phone line. PPPoE is a protocol that encapsulates PPP frames in Ethernet frames so that they can be carried over Ethernet networks. PPPoA encapsulates PPP frames in ATM cells and allows them to be sent over ATM-based networks. Read this article to find out more about PPPoE and PPPoA and how they are different from each other. What is PPPoE? PPPoE is a protocol that encapsulates PPP frames in Ethernet ... Read More
