OSPF – Open Shortest Path First

OSPF – Open Shortest Path First OSPF is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) for routing Internet Protocol (IP) packets solely within a single routing domain, such as an autonomous system. It gathers link state information from available routers and constructs a topology map of the network. The topology is presented as a routing table to

Cisco Ether channel

Etherchannel EtherChannel is a port link aggregation technology or port-channel architecture used primarily on Cisco switches. It allows grouping of several physical Ethernet links to create one logical Ethernet link for the purpose of providing fault-tolerance and high-speed links between switches, routers and servers. An EtherChannel can be created from between two and eight active

Network Topology

Network topology is the arrangement of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a communication network. Network topology is the topological structure of a network and may be depicted physically or logically. Physical topologyis the placement of the various components of a network, including device location and cable installation, while logical topology illustrates how data flows within a network. Distances between nodes,

Routing Information Protocol

Routing Information Protocol The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the oldest distance-vector routing protocols which employ the hop count as a routing metric. RIP prevents routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from source to destination. The maximum number of hops allowed for RIP is
