In a small network with few vlans, it is possible to use separate interfaces when connecting vlans to switches and vlans to routers. However, when the number of vlans increases, this is not viable; it will result in wasted interfaces, and routers won’t have enough interfaces for each vlan. In this scenario, trunk ports come […]

Access ports play a crucial role in connecting end devices to a specific VLAN within a switch. In this article, I will show you how to configure access ports on a Cisco switch using Packet Tracer. Network Topology In the network topology depicted below, we showcase a simplified setup consisting of a switch connected to

There are two ways you can configure two routers so that hosts existing on one router can communicate with hosts exiting on the second router. The first is by configuring a static route on the routers, while the second method is by configuring a dynamic routing protocol on each of the routers. In this article,
DSL and Leased lines are two networking technologies used to transport the internet from one end to another. A Leased Line is employed by organizations to extend their Local Area Network from the main branch to other branches, while a digital subscriber line (DSL) is an internet transport network that uses an existing telephone line

Carrier Ethernet and Multiprotocol Label Switching are two networking terms associated with internet service provision. Carrier Ethernet is a network infrastructure that uses the Ethernet standard to interconnect different branches of an organization over a wide area. MPLS, on the other hand, is a packet-forwarding technology that uses labels to forward traffic. In this guide,

MPLs and DIAs are two networking technologies commonly used in wide area networks and, at times, local area networks. MPLs is a packet forwarding protocol that uses labels to make forwarding decisions. DIA on the other hand is a high-speed, secure internet connection provided by an ISP (Internet Service Provider) to an organization. In this

In today’s age of networking, Ethernet plays a vital role in connecting devices together and enabling good communication. However, not all Ethernet standards are created equal. We have 10 Ethernet, 100 Ethernet (fast Ethernet), and 1000 Ethernet (gigabit Ethernet), and each of them has a different maximum speed of transmission. In this article, we will

In today’s modern world, seamless internet access plays an important role in facilitating efficient communication within organizations and ensuring reliable internet connectivity. Two network transport technologies that often cause confusion people are Metro Ethernet and MPLS. While both technologies serve the purpose of moving traffic from one point to another, they still exhibit significant differences.

In the ever-evolving world of wireless communication, modulation plays an important role in ensuring the successful transmission and reception of signals. Modulation allows for efficient message exchange between the transmitter and the receiver by combining a message signal with a carrier signal and transmitting both to the receiver. In this article, we will discuss 3G
