  2. Port forwarding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding

    Port forwarding facilitates the connection by remote computers, for example, Internet hosts, to a specific computer or service within a local area network (LAN). [3]In a typical residential network, nodes obtain Internet access through a DSL or cable modem connected to a router or network address translator (NAT/NAPT).

  3. Mail forwarding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_forwarding

    Since 1 October 2007, borough councils in London are empowered to require local private mail forwarding services to register with them, under the London Local Authority Act 2007, section 75. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Registered services must obtain evidence of identity from their customers and retain copies of those documents.

  4. Link-state routing protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-state_routing_protocol

    The link-state protocol is performed by every switching node in the network (i.e., nodes which are prepared to forward packets; in the Internet, these are called routers). [3] The basic concept of link-state routing is that every node constructs a map of the connectivity to the network in the form of a graph , showing which nodes are connected ...

  5. Network mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_mapping

    The maps produced by this project were based on the layer 3 or IP level connectivity of the Internet (see OSI model), but there are different aspects of internet structure that have also been mapped. More recent efforts to map the internet have been improved by more sophisticated methods, allowing them to make faster and more sensible maps.

  6. Geographic routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_routing

    Geographic routing (also called georouting [1] or position-based routing) is a routing principle that relies on geographic position information. It is mainly proposed for wireless networks and based on the idea that the source sends a message to the geographic location of the destination instead of using the network address.

  7. Port Control Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Control_Protocol

    Port Control Protocol (PCP) is a computer networking protocol that allows hosts on IPv4 or IPv6 networks to control how the incoming IPv4 or IPv6 packets are translated and forwarded by an upstream router that performs network address translation (NAT) or packet filtering.

  8. Network address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address

    Network diagram with IP network addresses indicated e.g. 192.168.100.3.. A network address is an identifier for a node or host on a telecommunications network.Network addresses are designed to be unique identifiers across the network, although some networks allow for local, private addresses, or locally administered addresses that may not be unique. [1]

  9. Forwarding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forwarding

    Perfect forwarding, a feature of the programming language C++11; Port forwarding, the act of forwarding a network port from one network node to another; Reverse-path forwarding, a technique used in routers for ensuring loop-free forwarding of packets in multicast routing and to help prevent IP address spoofing in unicast routing
