  2. Router (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router_(computing)

    Router (computing) A router[a] is a computer and networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks, including internetworks such as the global Internet. [2][3][4] A router is connected to two or more data lines from different IP networks. When a data packet comes in on a line, the router reads the network address ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_Transfer_Mode

    Asynchronous Transfer Mode. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a telecommunications standard defined by the American National Standards Institute and International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T, formerly CCITT) for digital transmission of multiple types of traffic. ATM was developed to meet the needs ...

    For example, from node 1 to node 6 the best routes are likely to be 1-8-7-6, 1-8-10-6 or 1-9-10-6, as these are the shortest routes. Routing is the process of selecting network paths to carry network traffic. Routing is performed for many kinds of networks, including circuit switching networks and packet switched networks.

  5. Programme Delivery Control - Wikipedia

    PDC is transmitted once a second in special packets addressed as magazine 8 and text row 30. Since this row is not displayable it does not interfere with normal pages. Packet 8/30 has various formats specified by ETSI and PDC is format 2. Each packet 8/30 format 2 also has a label number and there can be up to four labels transmitted at a time.

  6. Packet switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_switching

    This animation illustrates a network model in which consecutive packets between hosts take differing routes. Out-of-order delivery is however detrimental to the performance of several network protocols, including TCP, so that the Internet attempts to route packets associated with the same data stream along the same path most of the time.

  7. Multiprotocol Label Switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprotocol_Label_Switching

    The path is set up based on criteria in the FEC. The path begins at an LER, which makes a decision on which label to prefix to a packet based on the appropriate FEC. It then forwards the packet along to the next router in the path, which swaps the packet's outer label for another label, and forwards it to the next router.

    Wireshark is a free and open-source packet analyzer.It is used for network troubleshooting, analysis, software and communications protocol development, and education. . Originally named Ethereal, the project was renamed Wireshark in May 2006 due to tradema

  9. Transmission Control Protocol - Wikipedia

    All packets after the initial SYN packet sent by the client should have this flag set. [25] PSH: 1 bit Push function. Asks to push the buffered data to the receiving application. RST: 1 bit Reset the connection SYN: 1 bit Synchronize sequence numbers. Only the first packet sent from each end should have this flag set.
