Study Notes

Router Packet Forwarding

A router uses the packet's destination IP address to determine the correct interface for forwarding a packet.

Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) Sensor Function

An IPS sensor's primary function is analyzing and blocking potential network threats.

Ad Hoc Wireless LAN Characteristics

Ad hoc wireless LANs involve direct communication between wireless clients, using mesh nodes for traffic routing.

Client-Server vs. Peer-to-Peer Architectures

Client-server architectures rely on a server for resource sharing, while peer-to-peer architectures allow direct communication between multiple devices.

Hypervisor Types

A type 1 (native or bare metal) hypervisor runs directly on the server's hardware.
