Ch33-Device Management Protocols Flashcards
A message generated by any computer, but including Cisco routers and switches, for which the device OS wants to notify the owner or administrator of the device about some event
log message
A server application that collects syslog messages from many devices over the network, and provides an user interface is that IT administrators can view the log messages to troubleshoot problems
syslog sever
A protocol used to synchronize time-of-day clocks so that multiple devices use the same time-of-day, which allows log messages to be more easily matched based on their timestamps
Network Time Protocol (NTP)
Any device that attempts to use NTP to synchronize its time by adjusting the local device’s time based on NTP messages received from a server
NTP client
A mode of operation with NTP in which devices acts as both an NTP client-synchronizing it time with some server(s)-and as an NTP server-supplying time information to other clients
NTP client/server mode
Any device that uses NTP to hero synchronize time-of-day clocks for other devices by telling those other devices it’s current time
NTP server
A media and protocol independent device discovery protocol that runs on most Cisco-manufactured equipment, including routers, access servers, and switches. The device will advertise its existence to other devices and receive information about other devices on the same LAN or the remote side of a WAN
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)
An IEEE standard protocol that defines messages, encapsulated directly in Ethernet frames so that they do not rely on a working IPv4 or IPv6 network, for the purposes of giving devices a means of announcing basic device information to other devices on the LAN. A standardized protocol similar to CDP
Link-layer discovery protocol (LLDP)
