A

An address that identifies a computer in a network, consists of a network and host indentifier.

23
Q

Subnet Mask

A

The division between network and host identifier.

24
Q

Link Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR)

A

For computer with link-local addresses, which might not have access to a DNS server - an IPV6 name resolution option.

25
Q

stateless address autoconfiguration

A

enables computers to configure their own addresses after transmitting router solicitation multicasts to the routers on the network and receiving router advertisement messages in return

A

a software routine that acts as a virtual barrier between a computer and the network to which it is attached.

32
Q

NAT

A

a feature built into many routers that takes the packets destined for the Internet that are generated by the computers on a private network, substitutes a registered address for the computer’s private address, and then forwards the packets to the Internet distination.
