Lesson 1-2 EXAMINING NETWORK STANDARDIZATION Flashcards
What is the purpose of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO)?
Develops and publishes international standards, including those for networking
The ISO plays a crucial role in standardizing practices across various industries.
What Networking Model is published by ISO?
OSI Open Systems Interconnection model
The OSI model is a framework for understanding and implementing network protocols.
Name two examples of ISO standards related to information security.
Hint : ISO/IEC?
- ISO/IEC 27000-series (Information Security Management Systems)
- ISO/IEC 20000 (IT Service Management)
IEC: International Electrotechnical Commission
These standards help organizations manage security and IT services effectively.
What does ISO/IEC 11801 pertain to?
Cabling Standards for Networking
This standard specifies requirements for cabling systems used in networks.
What is ISO/IE 7498-1 known for?
Open Systems Interconnection model
This model outlines the layers involved in network communication.
What is the role of the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA)?
Coordinates key Internet functions such as IP address allocation, DNS (Domain Name System) root zone administration, and protocol parameter assignments
IANA operates under the oversight of ICANN.
What organization oversees the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA)?
Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)
ICANN ensures the stable and secure operation of the Internet’s naming system.
True or False: ICANN coordinates and maintains databases related to the namespaces of the Internet.
True
This is essential for the network’s stable and secure operation.
What does the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) do?
Develops and promotes voluntary Internet standards, particularly standards that comprise the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP).
What is RFC(Request For Comment) 791?
Internet Protocol (IP)
What is RFC 793?
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
What is RFC 2616?
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
What is RFC 1918?
Address Allocation for Private Internets
What does the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) do?
Develops international standards for various industries, including telecommunications, information technology, and power generation.
What is IEEE 802.3?
Ethernet Standard for Wired LANs
What is IEEE 802.11?
