  2. Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching - Wikipedia

    The next packets sent by the network can then be flooded and learned out of the (now enabled) secondary port without any network disruption. Fail-over times are demonstrably in the region of 50ms. The same switch can belong to multiple domains and thus multiple rings. However, these act as independent entities and can be controlled individually.

  3. Media Redundancy Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Redundancy_Protocol

    In case of failure, the network works in the Ring-Open status (Figure 2). For instance, in case of failure of a link connecting two MRCs, the MRM sets both of its ring ports to the forwarding state; the MRCs adjacent to the failure each have a disabled port (because of the link loss) and a forwarding ring port; the other MRCs have both ring ...

    Half-open state. In this state, the circuit breaker allows a limited number of requests from the service to pass through and invoke the operation. If the requests are successful, then the circuit breaker will go to the closed state. However, if the requests continue to fail, then it goes back to open state.

  5. Open port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_port

    Listing open TCP ports that are listening on the local machine. In security parlance, the term open port is used to mean a TCP or UDP port number that is configured to accept packets . In contrast, a port which rejects connections or ignores all packets directed at it is called a closed port .

    For example, an 8×8 Beneš network (i.e. with N = 8) is shown below; it has 2 log 2 8 − 1 = 5 stages, each containing N/2 = 4 2×2 crossbar switches, and it uses a total of N log 2 N − N/2 = 20 2×2 crossbar switches. The central three stages consist of two smaller 4×4 Beneš networks, while in the center stage, each 2×2 crossbar switch ...

  7. Common Address Redundancy Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Address_Redundancy...

    The Common Address Redundancy Protocol or CARP is a computer networking protocol which allows multiple hosts on the same local area network to share a set of IP addresses. Its primary purpose is to provide failover redundancy, especially when used with firewalls and routers. In some configurations, CARP can also provide load balancing ...

  8. Single point of failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_point_of_failure

    In this diagram the router is a single point of failure for the communication network between computers. A single point of failure ( SPOF ) is a part of a system that would stop the entire system from working if it were to fail . [ 1 ]

  9. Ethernet Ring Protection Switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_Ring_Protection...

    The mechanisms and protocol defined in this Recommendation achieve highly reliable and stable protection; and never form loops, which would fatally affect network operation and service availability. Each Ethernet Ring Node is connected to adjacent Ethernet Ring Nodes participating in the same Ethernet Ring, using two independent links.
