  2. Mobile IP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_IP

    Researchers create support for mobile networking without requiring any pre-deployed infrastructure as it currently is required by MIP. One such example is Interactive Protocol for Mobile Networking (IPMN) which promises supporting mobility on a regular IP network just from the network edges by intelligent signalling between IP at end-points and ...

  3. Virtual IP address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_IP_address

    A VIP address can be used to provide nearly unlimited mobility. For example, if an application has an IP address on a physical subnet, that application can be moved only to a host on that same subnet. VIP addresses can be advertised on their own subnet, [a] so its application can be moved anywhere on the reachable network without changing ...

  4. IEEE 802.1ag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.1ag

    IEEE 802.1ag is an amendment to the IEEE 802.1Q networking standard which introduces Connectivity Fault Management (CFM).This defines protocols and practices for the operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) of paths through 802.1 bridges and local area networks (LANs).

  5. Host Identity Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host_Identity_Protocol

    The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) is a host identification technology for use on Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet.The Internet has two main name spaces, IP addresses and the Domain Name System.

  6. Network mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_mapping

    Network mapping discovers the devices on the network and their connectivity. It is not to be confused with network discovery or network enumeration which discovers devices on the network and their characteristics such as operating system, open ports, listening network services, etc. The field of automated network mapping has taken on greater ...

  7. Management information base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_information_base

    A management information base (MIB) is a database used for managing the entities in a communication network. Most often associated with the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the term is also used more generically in contexts such as in OSI/ISO Network management model. While intended to refer to the complete collection of management ...

  8. Protocol data unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol_data_unit

    For example, it might add a port number to identify the application, a network address to help with routing, a code to identify the type of data in the packet and error-checking information. All this additional information, plus the original service data unit from the higher layer, constitutes the protocol data unit at this layer.

  9. Interior gateway protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior_Gateway_Protocol

    An interior gateway protocol (IGP) or interior routing protocol is a type of routing protocol used for exchanging routing table information between gateways (commonly routers) within an autonomous system (for example, a system of corporate local area networks). [1] This routing information can then be used to route network-layer protocols like IP.
