    Study Notes

    Network Protocols and Technologies

    • Secure communication over a computer network is facilitated by the SSL/TLS protocol.
    • Email transmission is facilitated by the SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) protocol.
    • POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3) and IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) are used for accessing and retrieving emails from a server.
    • The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) defines a set of standards that define communication for Wireless LANs (WI-FI).
    • DNS (Domain Name System) is used to translate domain names to IP addresses.
    • FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used for the transfer of files over a TCP/IP network.
    • Error-checking during data transmission is handled by the TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) protocol.
    • ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) manages the allocation of IP address space and other resources.
    • DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used to dynamically assign IP addresses to devices on a network.
    • ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is used to determine the MAC address associated with an IP address.
    • ICMP stands for Internet Control Message Protocol.
    • DHCP is used to assign dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network, not static IP addresses.
    • UDP (User Datagram Protocol) provides fast but unreliable delivery of data.
    • POP3 is not commonly used for real-time streaming over HTTP.
    • CIDR (Classless Inter Domain Routing) allows for more efficient allocation of IP addresses.
    • IGP stands for Interior Gateway Protocol.
    • MAC (Media Access Control) address is used to uniquely identify devices on a network at the data link layer.
    • DNS stands for Domain Name System.
    • API stands for Application Programming Interface.
    • NAT stands for Network Address Translation.
    • IEEE 802.11 standards are associated with WI-FI technology.
    • RTT (Round-trip Time) refers to the time it takes for a data packet to travel from the sender to the receiver and back.
    • CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) is primarily used for error detection during data transmission.
    • IETF stands for Internet Engineering Task Force.
