  2. Tarpit (networking) - Wikipedia

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

    Tom Liston developed the original tarpitting program LaBrea. [1] It can protect an entire network with a tarpit run on a single machine. The machine listens for Address Resolution Protocol requests that go unanswered (indicating unused addresses), then replies to those requests, receives the initial SYN packet of the scanner and sends a SYN/ACK in response.

  3. Stateful firewall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stateful_firewall

    In computing, a stateful firewall is a network-based firewall that individually tracks sessions of network connections traversing it. Stateful packet inspection , also referred to as dynamic packet filtering, [ 1 ] is a security feature often used in non-commercial and business networks.

  4. SERCOS III - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SERCOS_III

    Sercos is purposely designed to provide open access at all ports for other protocols between cyclic real-time messages. No tunneling is required. This provides the advantage that any Sercos III node is available, whether Sercos III is in cyclic mode or not, to use other protocols, such as TCP/IP, without any additional hardware to process ...

  5. X.25 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.25

    X.25 is an ITU-T standard protocol suite for packet-switched data communication in wide area networks (WAN). It was originally defined by the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (CCITT, now ITU-T) in a series of drafts and finalized in a publication known as The Orange Book in 1976.

  6. Hidden node problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_node_problem

    Increasing the transmission power of the nodes can solve the hidden node problem by allowing the cell around each node to increase in size, encompassing all of the other nodes. This configuration enables the non-hidden nodes to detect, or hear, the hidden node. If the non-hidden nodes can hear the hidden node, the hidden node is no longer hidden.

  7. Pi-hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi-hole

    Any device that supports VPN can use Pi-Hole on a cellular network or a home network without having a DNS server configured. [16] Integrating Pi-hole with a VPN allows users to extend ad-blocking and tracker-blocking capabilities to devices outside their local network, providing consistent protection while on the go.

  8. Network socket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_socket

    Network sockets may be dedicated for persistent connections for communication between two nodes, or they may participate in connectionless and multicast communications. In practice, due to the proliferation of the TCP/IP protocols in use on the Internet, the term network socket usually refers to use with the Internet Protocol (IP).

  9. Flooding (computer networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flooding_(computer_networking)

    Flooding is used in computer network routing algorithms in which every incoming packet is sent through every outgoing link except the one it arrived on. [ 1 ] Flooding is used in bridging and in systems such as Usenet and peer-to-peer file sharing and as part of some routing protocols , including OSPF , DVMRP , and those used in ad-hoc wireless ...
