In computer networking, a flit (flow control unit or flow control digit) is a link-level atomic piece that forms a network packet or stream. [1] The first flit, called the header flit holds information about this packet's route (namely the destination address) and sets up the routing behavior for all subsequent flits associated with the packet.
Continuous transmission mode [1] is a telecommunications mode where a good part of the communication transmission links are of the continuous-mode type, in which the signal is present at all times. [2] In more quantitative terms, continuous transmission mode takes place: at constant bit rate,
The use of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology and services creates the need for an adaptation layer in order to support information transfer protocols, which are not based on ATM. This adaptation layer defines how to segment higher-layer packets into cells and the reassembly of these packets.
In statistical time division multiplexing, contention is a media access method that is used to share a broadcast medium. In contention, any computer in the network can transmit data at any time (first come-first served). This system breaks down when two computers attempt to transmit at the same time. This is known as a collision. To avoid ...
Packet flow can be represented as a path in a network to model network performance. For example, a water flow network can be used to conceptualize packet flow. Communication channels can be thought of as pipes, with the pipe capacity corresponding to bandwidth and flows corresponding to data throughput. This visualization can help to understand ...
The port will not send out DTP frames or be affected by any incoming DTP frames. If you want to set a trunk between two switches when DTP is disabled, you must manually configure trunking using the (switchport mode trunk) command on both sides. The configured switch port mode setting is referred to as the port's trunking administrative mode.
When a router interconnects many networks or handles much network traffic, it may become a bottleneck and cause network congestion (i.e., traffic loss). A number of techniques have been developed to prevent such problems. One of them is the network search engine (NSE), also known as network search element.
One specific DLE event signals the end of a fax page, or the end of an audio file. That event returns the modem back into command mode. Unlike in standard dial-up data mode, dropping DTR isn't an appropriate way to resume command mode since a hangup is not desired, and an escape code with mandatory pauses isn't suitable either.
