Network hubs run in half-duplex mode in order to prevent collisions. Since hubs are rare in modern LANs, the half-duplex system is not widely used in Ethernet networks anymore. What is a full duplex? - Answer: all nodes can send and receive on their port at the same time. There are no collisions in full-duplex mode, but the host NIC and the switch port must support the full-duplex mode What is the IEEE of Bluetooth? - Answer: 802.15 WPAN

HDLC is a point-to-point protocol used on leased lines. No authentication can be used with HDLC. What is the difference between HDLC and PPP? - Answer: The major difference between HDLC and PPP , the PPP protocol performs better than HDLC because there is no compulsion of using the Cisco devices in both the ends, which means these are interoperable. PPP also supports multiple protocols and support authentication. What is PPP? - Answer: Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) is a Data Link layer protocol that can be used over either asynchronous serial (dial-up) or synchronous serial (ISDN) media. It uses Link Control Protocol (LCP) to build and maintain data-link connections. Network Control Protocol (NCP) is used to allow multiple Network layer protocols (routed protocols) to be used on a point-to-point connection. The basic purpose of PPP is to transport layer 3 packets across a Data Link layer point-to-point link, and it's nonproprietary. The PPP protocol stack is specified at the Physical and Data Link layers only. In 802.11 wireless topology, what is BSS in Infrastructure? - Answer: Basic Service Set; Consist of a single AP interconnecting all associated wireless clients. The radius of which it covers in it wireless range is called a Basic Service Area (BSA). Layer 2 MAC address of the AP is used to uniquely ID each BSS which is called a Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID). In 802.11 wireless topology, what is ESS in infrastructure? - Answer: Extended Service Set ESS is ID by a SSID and each BSS is ID by its BSSID. When you need more coverage, two or more BSS can join through a common distribution system (DS) into an ESS. The whole covered area is called an Extended Service Area (ESA). A client in one BSA can now communicate with other clients in another BSA within the same ESS. Like a roaming cell phone user may move from one BSA to another and it would be seamless

A good example is a company license an office suite, including email service, that is delivered to the end user through a web browser. What is IaaS? - Answer: Infrastructure as a Service the greatest degree of freedom by enabling its consumer to provision processing, memory, storage and network resources within the cloud infrastructure. Customer does NOT have control over the physical infrastructure in the cloud. What is PaaS? - Answer: Platform as a Service provides it consumer with slightly more freedom than the SaaS model by enabling the consumer to install and possibly config provider supported applications in the cloud infrastructure. An example would be a company obtains a subscription to use a service provider's infrastructure, programming tools, and programming languages to develop and serve cloud based applications.
