  2. Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Interior_Gateway...

    This eases the workload on a network administrator who does not have to configure changes to the routing table manually. In addition to the routing table, EIGRP uses the following tables to store information: Neighbor Table: The neighbor table keeps a record of the IP addresses of routers that have a direct physical connection with this router ...

  3. IP address blocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address_blocking

    Unix-like operating systems commonly implement IP address blocking using a TCP wrapper, configured by host access control files /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow.. Both companies and schools offering remote user access use Linux programs such as DenyHosts or Fail2ban for protection from unauthorized access while allowing permitted remote access.

  4. Captive portal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captive_portal

    A common method is to direct all World Wide Web traffic to a web server, which returns an HTTP redirect to a captive portal. [8] When a modern, Internet-enabled device first connects to a network, it sends out an HTTP request to a detection URL predefined by its vendor and expects an HTTP status code 200 OK or 204 No Content.

  5. Default gateway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Default_gateway

    The IP-address could be 91.198.174.2. In this example, none of the internal routers know the route to that host, so they will forward the packet through router1's gateway or default route. [1] Every router on the packet's way to the destination will check whether the packet's destination IP-address matches any known network routes.

    Starting 1991-06-01, was used to map Public Data Network addresses to IP addresses. Returned to IANA 2008-01-22. This network was reclaimed by IANA in 2007 and was subsequently re-allocated in 2010. See RFC 877 and RFC 1356 for historical information. [10] 15.0.0.0/8 ARIN: 1991-09

  7. Open Shortest Path First - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Shortest_Path_First

    Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a routing protocol for Internet Protocol (IP) networks. It uses a link state routing (LSR) algorithm and falls into the group of interior gateway protocols (IGPs), operating within a single autonomous system (AS). OSPF gathers link state information from available routers and constructs a topology map of the ...

  8. Control plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_plane

    When an interface has an address configured in a subnet, such as 192.0.2.1 in the 192.0.2.0/24 (i.e., subnet mask 255.255.255.0) subnet, and that interface is considered "up" by the router, the router thus has a directly connected route to 192.0.2.0/24. If a routing protocol offered another router's route to that same subnet, the routing table ...

  9. Wikipedia:Blocking IP addresses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Blocking_IP...

    However, IP addresses should almost never be indefinitely blocked. Many IP addresses are dynamically assigned and change frequently from one person to the next, and even static IP addresses are periodically reassigned or have different users. In cases of long-term vandalism from an IP address, consider blocks over a period of months or years ...
