  2. IEEE 802.1aq - Wikipedia

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

    For example, nodes 7,4,5 and 6 are told they are members of the given service, for example service 200, and further that they should be using BVID 101. This is advertised by ISIS and all nodes then do the SPBM computation to determine if they are participating either as a head end or tail end, or a tandem point between other head and tail ends ...

  3. 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]

  4. Computer network diagram - Wikipedia

    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. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    A network is a medium to which many nodes can be connected, on which every node has an address and which permits nodes connected to it to transfer messages to other nodes connected to it by merely providing the content of a message and the address of the destination node and letting the network find the way to deliver the message to the ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Store and forward - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Store_and_forward

    Store and forward originates with delay-tolerant networks.No real-time services are available for these kinds of networks. Logistical Networking is a scalable form of store and forward networking that exposes network-embedded buffers on intermediate nodes and allows flexible creation of services by higher-level managers including caching, point-to-multipoint communication (or multicast ...

  8. Gateway (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, a network gateway connects an office or home intranet to the Internet. If an office or home computer user wants to load a web page, at least two network gateways are accessed—one to get from the office or home network to the Internet and one to get from the Internet to the computer that serves the web page.

  9. Systems Network Architecture - Wikipedia

    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 ...
