A network device that connects multiple networks and directs data packets between them, allowing communication between devices on different networks.

A network device that connects devices within a single network (e.g., a local area network) and allows communication between them.

A hardware component that connects a device to a network, converting data into signals for transmission and vice versa.

The ability of a network to continue operating even if one of its components fails.

A technique that uses multiple devices and paths to prevent a single point of failure from disrupting the network.

A technique that distributes network traffic across multiple servers or connections, ensuring continuous availability.

A mechanism that automatically switches to a backup device or path if the primary one fails, ensuring uninterrupted network access.

A technology that protects data storage by creating copies of data across multiple drives, ensuring data integrity even if one drive fails.

A secure, encrypted tunnel that connects a device to a network over the internet, protecting data from eavesdropping and hiding the user's location.

A VPN allows remote access to private networks, bypassing geographical restrictions on content and enhancing user privacy.
