Some people use the words “internet” and “World Wide Web” interchangeably. They believe they are the same, although this is not the case. The difference between the Internet and WWW (World Wide Web ) is essential to understand. WWW or web is one of the key services offered by the internet. The World Wide Web, ...
Onion routing is a method of communicating anonymously over a network. A data message is contained within several layers of encryption, in an onion network. This data is transferred via a sequence of network nodes known as onion routers—the onion routers "peel" away one layer, revealing the next destination of the data. Once the decryption ...
The proxy server is the gateway that acts as an intermediary server between the user and the internet and entry of cyber attackers is prevented by it.Web caching reduces the workload of the server by serving some of the requests of the web browser with the help of data stored in the cache. Scope What ...
DNS (Domain Name Server) translates the domain name into an IP address. DNS attacks target the Domain Name Server and its infrastructure. The most common types of DNS attacks are NXDOMAIN attacks, DNS spoofing, DNS amplification, etc. Scope What Is a Domain Name Server (DNS) Attack? Domain Name System is abbreviated as DNS and it ...
Wireless Mobile Communication is one of the rapidly expanding and high-tech domains in the mobile communication field. Wireless Communication is a technique of transferring pieces of information from 1 point of communication to another, disregarding exploitation of any wireless connection such as cables, wires, or any physical medium. Overall, in a very wireless communication organization, ...
Network simulators and network emulators are used in the research work of the computer network. A network simulator is a tool or software program that allows for analyzing the relationships between different components connected in the network. What is a Network Simulation? Network Simulator Network simulation is one of the methods used in computer network ...
Network layer design involves key challenges: routing, addressing, and forwarding. Routing protocols determine paths for data packets, balancing efficiency and reliability. Addressing assigns unique identifiers to devices. Forwarding directs packets based on addresses. Quality of Service (QoS) ensures performance levels. Security must safeguard data. Scalability addresses growth. Interoperability supports different technologies. Congestion control manages data ...
MIME in computer networks stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions. MIME is an extension of its parent protocol i.e. SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). MIME protocol is not restricted to textual data only. With the help of the MIME protocol, we can send various types of data through the internet such as text, images, audio, ...
For sending the packet to its destination we must be aware of the source MAC address and destination MAC address and source and destination IP address. The packet will be directly delivered if the destination is available in the same network otherwise the packet is sent to the default gateway first. Introduction For the successful ...
All protocol architectures that have ever been created offer multiplexing and demultiplexing features. The source port number field and the destination port number field are two unique fields that UDP and TCP use to conduct the demultiplexing and multiplexing tasks in the segment headers.Multiplexing is the act of assembling data from several application processes of ...
