  2. Multihoming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multihoming

    Multihoming is the practice of connecting a host or a computer network to more than one network. This can be done in order to increase reliability or performance. A typical host or end-user network is connected to just one network. Connecting to multiple networks can increase reliability because if one connection fails, packets can still be routed through the remaining connection. Connecting ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    For example, balanced two-phase power can be obtained from a three-phase network by using two specially constructed transformers, with taps at 50% and 86.6% of the primary voltage. This Scott T connection produces a true two-phase system with 90° time difference between the phases.

  4. G.hn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.hn

    G.hn technology facilitates the connection of devices across various network types using different wiring options, including coax, phone lines, power lines, and optical fiber. Initially designed for home networking, its applications expanded to encompass a broad spectrum of industrial scenarios.

  5. Point-to-Point Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-Point_Protocol

    This phase is optional. It allows the sides to authenticate each other before a connection is established. If successful, control goes to the network-layer protocol phase. Network-Layer Protocol Phase This phase is where each desired protocols' Network Control Protocols are invoked. For example, IPCP is used in establishing IP service over the ...

  6. Equal-cost multi-path routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal-cost_multi-path_routing

    Multi-path routing can be used in conjunction with most routing protocols because it is a per-hop local decision made independently at each router. It can substantially increase bandwidth by load-balancing traffic over multiple paths; however, there may be significant problems in deploying it in practice. [1]

  7. Open Shortest Path First - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Shortest_Path_First

    Two routers must first be neighbors and only then, can they become adjacent. Two routers become adjacent if at least one of them is designated router or backup designated router (on multiaccess-type networks), or they are interconnected by a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint network type.

  8. Network bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_bridge

    Routing allows multiple networks to communicate independently and yet remain separate, whereas bridging connects two separate networks as if they were a single network. [2] In the OSI model, bridging is performed in the data link layer (layer 2). [3] If one or more segments of the bridged network are wireless, the device is known as a wireless ...

  9. Duplex (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_(telecommunications)

    A duplex communication system is a point-to-point system composed of two or more connected parties or devices that can communicate with one another in both directions. Duplex systems are employed in many communications networks, either to allow for simultaneous communication in both directions between two connected parties or to provide a reverse path for the monitoring and remote adjustment ...
