The ITU-T G.hn standard, which provides a way to create a high-speed (up to 1 Gigabit/s) Local area network using existing home wiring (power lines, phone lines and coaxial cables), is an example of a protocol that employs packet aggregation to increase efficiency.
Scapy is a packet manipulation tool for computer networks, [3] [4] originally written in Python by Philippe Biondi. It can forge or decode packets, send them on the wire, capture them, and match requests and replies. It can also handle tasks like scanning, tracerouting, probing, unit tests, attacks, and network discovery.
In digital communications networks, packet processing refers to the wide variety of algorithms that are applied to a packet of data or information as it moves through the various network elements of a communications network. With the increased performance of network interfaces, there is a corresponding need for faster packet processing.
This is done by appending a zero byte to the transformed data, thus forming a packet consisting of the COBS-encoded data (the payload) to unambiguously mark the end of the packet. (Any other byte value may be reserved as the packet delimiter, but using zero simplifies the description.) Consistent Overhead Byte Stuffing (COBS) encoding process
A packet generation model is a traffic generation model of the packet flows or data sources in a packet-switched network. For example, a web traffic model is a model of the data that is sent or received by a user's web-browser. These models are useful during the development of telecommunication technologies, in view to analyse the performance ...
Packet concatenation is a computer networking optimization that coalesces multiple packets under a single header. The use of packet containment reduces the overhead at the physical and link layers. [ 1 ]
Protocol data units of the OSI model are: [1] The Layer 4: transport layer PDU is the segment or the datagram. The Layer 3: network layer PDU is the packet. The Layer 2: data link layer PDU is the frame. The Layer 1: physical layer PDU is the bit or, more generally, symbol.
Version number 5 Table version number. Incremented when data is changed and wrapped around on overflow for values greater than 32. Current/next indicator 1 Indicates if data is currently in effect or will be made effective in the near future. If the bit is 1, the data is to be used now. If 0, the decoder may begin to prepare for the data to change.
