  2. Firewall pinhole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_pinhole

    In computer networking, a firewall pinhole is a port that is not protected by a firewall to allow a particular application to gain access to a service on a host in the network protected by the firewall. [1] [2] Leaving ports open in firewall configurations exposes the protected system to potentially malicious abuse.

  3. Computer network diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network_diagram

    The physical network topology can be directly represented in a network diagram, as it is simply the physical graph represented by the diagrams, with network nodes as vertices and connections as undirected or direct edges (depending on the type of connection). [3] The logical network topology can be inferred from the network diagram if details ...

  4. IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_Routing_Protocol_for...

    The implementation of the RPL protocol occurs in wireless sensors and networks, the most used operating system for its implementation is Contiki which is a small open source operating system developed for use in a number of small systems ranging from 8-bit computers to integrated systems on microcontrollers, including sensor network nodes.

  5. List of network protocols (OSI model) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_network_protocols...

    This article lists protocols, categorized by the nearest layer in the Open Systems Interconnection model.This list is not exclusive to only the OSI protocol family.Many of these protocols are originally based on the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) and other models and they often do not fit neatly into OSI layers.

  6. IPv6 address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address

    An IPv6 network uses an address block that is a contiguous group of IPv6 addresses of a size that is a power of two. The leading set of bits of the addresses are identical for all hosts in a given network, and are called the network's address or routing prefix. Network address ranges are written in CIDR notation.

  7. Comparison of IPv6 support in operating systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IPv6_support...

    Mageia has had full support for IPv6 only and IPv4 + IPv6 since Mageia 7, as well as continuing to support IPv4 only systems. [15] macOS: Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) Yes Yes Yes [16] Yes [17] Versions 10.7 through 10.10 often prefer IPv4 even when working IPv6 connectivity is available. [18]

  8. Thread (network protocol) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)

    Thread is an IPv6-based, low-power mesh networking technology for Internet of things (IoT) products. [1] The Thread protocol specification is available at no cost; however, this requires agreement and continued adherence to an end-user license agreement (EULA), which states "Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifications."

  9. Teredo tunneling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teredo_tunneling

    The native IPv6 host then responds as usual to the client's Teredo IPv6 address, which eventually causes the packet to find a Teredo relay, which initiates a connection to the client (possibly using the Teredo server for NAT piercing). The Teredo Client and native IPv6 host then use the relay for communication as long as they need to.
