Lesson 4 Review: LAN Topologies The purpose of this activity is to reinforce what you have learned so far about local area networks technologies. What are the two methods that Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) employs to handle messages that are sent simultaneously? (Min. word count: 15) Carrier sense multiple access methods are detection where a transmission is cancel when collision is detected and avoidance where transmission is delayed. Which topology would you use when unable

What is a Dialup Internet Service Dialup internet service is a service that allows connectivity to the internet through a standard telephone line. By connecting the telephone line to the modem in your computer and inserting the other end into the phone jack, and configuring the computer to dial a specific number provided by your internet service provider(ISP) you are able to access the internet on your computer. Dial up internet service is provided through several ISP. The majority of internet

use the Ethernet or token ring protocol. I feel this would be a good option because the bank and businesses are probably not all located in the same building. So if they are located in separate buildings it would be the best option. In a token ring LAN each station is connected to a center wiring concentrator. This is called a multi-station access unit using a UTP or an STP. The access method that is used is called Token. This type of method is a special data package that is generated by the first

07/1/2013 Week 3 Assignment 3 Network Topologies. Hierarchical Star. the star network is one of the most popular network topology. In this network, all the nodes are connected individually to one common hub. In other words, it is a network topology wherein transmission stations are connected to the central node in such a manner that the design resembles the shape of a star. Basically, the star topology design is quite similar to a bicycle wheel with spokes radiating from

She wants me to suggest an overall client/server design, number of tiers, and network topology. She also asked me to comment on these issues: legacy data, Web-centricity, scalability, security, and batch processing that might be needed. Jesse said it was OK to make reasonable assumptions in my proposal to her. Student answers will vary

1. Switching infrastructure congestion, corruption, or collisions. a. Congestion Congestion cause network slow down where the ports that are oversubscribed. Oversubscribed port is where the port on the switches is attempting to deliver data at a higher rate than the port bandwidth can support or allow. When oversubscribed port occurs, some of the packets must end up being dropped. Those client packets are being dropped will experience a slow-down in their file transfers or in the responsiveness of

Introduction (100-User Wireless LAN-Design & Implementation Analysis) In this document, I will endeavor to provide a written analysis concerning the design and implementation of a wireless LAN (WLAN) for a firm comprised of one hundred employees. In illustration of the WLAN design, I will make reference to several sources regarding any related content that I’ve found to be pertinent and of practical benefit to this document’s purposes, not least of which is “ Top-Down Network Design ”, by

recognized the other stations in the WLAN and have established a wireless data link. 2. The fundamental topology of the WLAN is the Basic Service Set (BSS). This is also called the independent Basic Service Set, or ad hoc network. 4. What is the purpose of an Extended Service Set? 1. By adding multiple access points to the network, the range of mobility of a wireless client in the LAN is extended. 2. Definition - The use of multiple access points to extend user mobility Hand-off
