  2. IEEE 802.1aq - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.1aq

    The network has a fully meshed inner core of four nodes (0..3) and then four outer nodes (4,5,6 and 7), each dual-homed onto a pair of inner core nodes. Normally when nodes come from the factory they have a MAC address assigned which becomes a node identifier but for the purpose of this example we will assume that the nodes have MAC addresses ...

  3. Butterfly network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_network

    For a butterfly network with p processor nodes, there need to be p(log 2 p + 1) switching nodes. Figure 1 shows a network with 8 processor nodes, which implies 32 switching nodes. It represents each node as N(rank, column number). For example, the node at column 6 in rank 1 is represented as (1,6) and node at column 2 in rank 0 is represented ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network_diagram

    A sample network diagram Readily identifiable icons are used to depict common network appliances, e.g. routers, and the style of lines between them indicates the type of connection. Clouds are used to represent networks external to the one pictured for the purposes of depicting connections between internal and external devices, without ...

  5. Node (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(networking)

    In telecommunications networks, a node (Latin: nodus, ‘knot’) is either a redistribution point or a communication endpoint.. A physical network node is an electronic device that is attached to a network, and is capable of creating, receiving, or transmitting information over a communication channel. [1]

  6. Multistage interconnection networks - Wikipedia

    Some examples of static regular interconnections are: [1] [2] Completely connected network Completely connected network In a mesh network, multiple nodes are connected with each other. Each node in the network is connected to every other node in the network. This arrangement allows proper communication of the data between the nodes.

  7. Overlay network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlay_network

    Nodes in an overlay network can be thought of as being connected by virtual or logical links, each of which corresponds to a path, perhaps through many physical links, in the underlying network. For example, distributed systems such as peer-to-peer networks are overlay networks because their nodes form networks over existing network connections.

  8. Systems Network Architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_Network_Architecture

    Each computer maintained a list of Nodes that defined the forwarding mechanisms. A centralized node type known as a Network Node maintained Global tables of all other node types. APPN stopped the need to maintain Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC) routing tables that explicitly defined endpoint to endpoint connectivity. APPN ...

  9. Service set (802.11 network) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_set_(802.11_network)

    (For example, all of the devices that together form and use a Wi‑Fi network called "Foo" are a service set.) A service set forms a logical network of nodes operating with shared link-layer networking parameters; they form one logical network segment. A service set is either a basic service set (BSS) or an extended service set (ESS).
