  2. SYN flood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYN_flood

    A SYN flood is a form of denial-of-service attack on data communications in which an attacker rapidly initiates a connection to a server without finalizing the connection. The server has to spend resources waiting for half-opened connections, which can consume enough resources to make the system unresponsive to legitimate traffic.

  3. SYN cookies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYN_cookies

    SYN cookie is a technique used to resist SYN flood attacks. The technique's primary inventor Daniel J. Bernstein defines SYN cookies as "particular choices of initial TCP sequence numbers by TCP servers." In particular, the use of SYN cookies allows a server to avoid dropping connections when the SYN queue fills up.

  4. TCP hole punching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_hole_punching

    SYN from Peer A reaches NAT-b, SYN from Peer B reaches NAT-a; Depending on the timing of these events (where in the network the SYN cross), at least one of the NAT will let the incoming SYN through, and map it to the internal destination peer; Upon receipt of the SYN, the peer sends a SYN+ACK back and the connection is established.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_Ethernet

    The Synchronous Ethernet signal transmitted over the Ethernet physical layer should be traceable to an external clock, ideally a master and unique clock for the whole network. Applications include cellular networks, access technologies such as Ethernet passive optical network, and applications such as IPTV or VoIP.

  9. Syn and anti addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syn_and_anti_addition

    Anti addition is in direct contrast to syn addition. In anti addition, two substituents are added to opposite sides (or faces) of a double bond or triple bond, once again resulting in a decrease in bond order and increase in number of substituents. The classical example of this is bromination (any halogenation) of alkenes. [5]
