What are issues in congestion control and how is it handled in TCP/IP?
The Congestion at the network layer came across two issues which are throughput and delay.Based on DelayWhen compared to capacity of the network, if load is less, the delay is minimum.Here the minimum delay is composed of propagation delay and processing delay and both are negligible.Therefore, when load reaches the network capacity, the delay increases because we must add the queuing delay to the total delay.When the load is greater than the capacity the delay becomes infinite.Based on ThroughoutWhen load is below the capacity of the network, the throughput increases proportional to the load.After the load reaches the capacity, we ...
Read MoreWhat is delay, the performance metric of the network layer?
The performance of a network can be measured in terms of Delay, Throughput and Packet loss.Let us try to understand the concept of Delay.DelayA packet from its source to its destination, encounters delays. The delays in a network can be divided into four types as follows −Transmission delayTransmission delay is the amount of time taken by the router to transfer the packet to the outgoing link is called transmission delay.For example, assume that you have 100 kb of data. For this data, you have to keep on this outgoing link and this is known as Transmission delay.Suppose you are vacating ...
Read MoreWhat is protocol graph? Compare the network interface and protocol
A protocol is a set of rules and standards that primarily outline a language that devices will use to communicate. There are an excellent range of protocols in use extensively in networking, and that they are usually implemented in numerous layers.It provides a communication service where the process is used to exchange the messages. When the communication is simple, we can use only one simple protocol.When the communication is complex, we must divide the task between different layers, so, we need to follow a protocol at each layer, this technique we used to call protocol layering. This layering allows us ...

Read MoreWhat is switching and the types of switching techniques?
Switching is a technique of transferring the information from one computer network to another computer network.Let us discuss about switching in step by step manner as follows −Step 1 − In a computer network the switching can be achieved by using switches.Step 2 − A switch is a small piece of hardware device that is used to join multiple computers together with one local area network (LAN).Step 3 − These are devices which are helpful in creating temporary connections between two or more devices that are linked to the switch.Step 4 − Switches are helpful in forwarding the packets based ...
Read MoreWhat are Satellite Microwaves in computer networks?
There are two types of microwaves in computer networks. These are as follows −Terrestrial microwaveSatellite microwaveLet us discuss satellite microwaves in detail.Satellite MicrowaveIt is used for broadcasting and receiving signals. The signals are transmitted to space where these satellites are positioned and it retransmits the signal to the appropriate location.It acts as a repeater as it only receives the signal and retransmits it. The satellites should be aligned properly with the earth for this system to work. It is a physical object which revolves around the earth at a known height.Satellite communication is more flexible and reliable nowadays than cable ...
Read MoreWhat is simplex mode of transmission in computer networks?
When a data is transmitted from one device to another device is known as transmission mode, it is also known as the communication mode.Generally, the communication channel is a direction associated, and transmission media role is to provide the direction. So, we call transmission mode a directional mode.The transmission mode is work in the physical layer.Types of Transmission modeThe Transmission mode is divided into three categories, which are as follows −Simplex ModeHalf-duplex ModeFull-duplex mode (Duplex Mode)The types of transmission mode are shown in the chart below −Let us see the simplex mode of transmission.Simplex modeIn Simplex mode, the communication is ...
Read MoreWhat are wireless sensor networks?
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have the power of distributed communication, computing, and sensing features. They are characterized as infrastructure less, fault tolerant and self-organizing networks which provide opportunities for low-cost, easy-to-apply, rapid and flexible installations in an environment for various applicationsThe wireless sensor and the sensor node architecture are given in the diagram below −Characteristics of WSNThe characteristics of WSN are as follows −Resource constraints − Nodes of WSN are smaller in size and get power from the batteries. It justifies that service provided by the nodes like communication and computation amount of memory is very limited.Communication paradigm − The ...
Read MoreWhat is client/server network and types of servers?
Local Area networks are of two types − Peer to Peer network and client server network.Let us discuss about client server network −Client/Server NetworkIn client-server network relationships, certain computers act as servers and others act as clients.A server is simply a computer that provides the network resources and provides service to other computers when they request it. A client is the computer running a program that requests the service from a server. Local area network (LAN) is based on client server network relationship.A client-server network is one on which all available network resources such as files, directories, applications and shared ...
Read MoreWhat is the process of securing the network architecture using TSL, SSL, and Cryptography?
TLS (Transport layer security) is the successor or the updated version of SSL and the basic process of securing the network by both is more or less the same.Transport Layer Security (TLS)/Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) are computer networking protocols for securing connections between network application clients and servers over an insecure network. These protocols provide a mechanism for encrypting and authenticating data sent between client and server.SSL/TLS layers are responsible for the transport of data between processes and the routing of network traffic over a network between client and server, and below application layer protocols such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol ...
