  2. Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenge-Handshake...

    [1] After the completion of the link establishment phase, the authenticator sends a "challenge" message to the peer. The peer responds with a value calculated using a one-way hash function on the challenge and the secret combined. The authenticator checks the response against its own calculation of the expected hash value.

  3. Tier 1 network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tier_1_network

    A Tier 1 network is an Internet Protocol (IP) network that can reach every other network on the Internet solely via settlement-free interconnection (also known as settlement-free peering). [1] [2] Tier 1 networks can exchange traffic with other Tier 1 networks without paying any fees for the exchange of traffic in either direction. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDP_hole_punching

    UDP hole punching is a method for establishing bidirectional UDP connections between Internet hosts in private networks using network address translators. The technique is not applicable in all scenarios or with all types of NATs, as NAT operating characteristics are not standardized.

  5. Peering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peering

    The two primary criticisms of multilateral peering are that it breaks the shared fate of the forwarding and routing planes, since the layer-2 connection between two participants could hypothetically fail while their layer-2 connections with the route server remained up, and that they force all participants to treat each other with the same ...

  6. Link aggregation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_aggregation

    Link aggregation increases total throughput beyond what a single connection could sustain, and provides redundancy where all but one of the physical links may fail without losing connectivity. A link aggregation group ( LAG ) is the combined collection of physical ports.

    The integer part is 1 because 1 is the lowest piece availability. The fractional part is 6/10 because more than one peer has pieces 2 to 7 (6 pieces) and there are 10 total pieces. Even though 3 peers have pieces 4 and 5, it does not further increase the availability. [1] Sometimes "distributed copies" is considered to be "availability minus 1".

  8. Seeding (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seeding_(computing)

    In computing, and specifically peer-to-peer file sharing, seeding is the uploading of already downloaded content for others to download from. A peer, a computer that is connected to the network, becomes a seed when having acquired the entire set of data, it begins to offer its upload bandwidth to other peers attempting to download the file.

    SpaceX CRS-7, also known as SpX-7, [1] was a private American Commercial Resupply Service mission to the International Space Station, contracted to NASA, which launched and failed on June 28, 2015.
