Question

HI THERE, PLEASE, NEED HELP. THANK YOU (SHORT ANSWER, ALL QUESTION FROM BOOK COMPUTER NETWORK FROM LANS TO WANS)

1- What is one of the most unique features of the Token-Ring network? Here is a hint, what happens to an Ethernet network if it becomes segmented?

2- How does a Token-Ring network accomplish this??

3-What does the FDDI (fiber distributed data interface) network have in common with Token-Ring?

4-We touched on this in class in our discussion of the Bluetooth network. Who is the networking standard named after? Research question not part of text.

5-Why do you think the creators of the networking standard chose to use the name of this person for the standard? Research question not part of text.

6-If I wanted to connect two switches or hubs and the devices did not have an auto sensing uplink port what could I use?
7- What kind of device would you require if you were to connect your network (more than one machine) to the internet?
8- TCP/IP addresses are assigned to nodes in two ways. What are the two ways?

.9-What is the IP protocol that supports dynamic address allocation?

10- The media access control (MAC) sub layer is part of what layer in the OSI stack?

Explanation / Answer

1- Token ring networks follow a logical ring setup. That means that the computers don;t have to be physically in a ring but the data is passed around the network in a circle. A computer can "talk" or make request to another computer until the token has been passed to it.

2- The data transmission process goes as follows:

3- It also contains two rings, one as a secondary backup in case the primary ring fails.

4- Bluetooth was named after a late 900s king, Harald Bluetooth King of Denmark and Norway.

5- He is known for his unification of previously warring tribes from Denmark (including Scania, present-day Sweden, where the Bluetooth technology was invented), and Norway. Bluetooth likewise was intended to unify different technologies, such as computers and mobile phones.

6- Ethernet crossover cable

7- Router

8- Internet Protocol addresses are assigned to a host either anew at the time of booting, or permanently by fixed configuration of its hardware or software. Persistent configuration is also known as using a static IP address. In contrast, in situations when the computer's IP address is assigned newly each time, this is known as using a dynamic IP address.

9- IP addresses are most frequently assigned dynamically on LANs and broadband networks by the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). DHCP is not the only technology used to assign IP addresses dynamically. Dialup and some broadband networks use dynamic address features of the Point-to-Point Protocol.

10- Media access control (MAC) data communication protocol is a sublayer of the data link layer, which itself is layer 2.
