MTU
- Maximum transmittable without fragmenting an IP packet
- 1500 bytes
Star Topology
Hub and spoke
All devices are connected to a central device
Ring Topology
Used in MANs and WANs
- Dual rings
- Built in fault tolerance
Bus Topology
Used in early LANs
Simple but prone to errors
Bus Topology
Simple but prone to errors
Mesh Topology
- Multiple links to the same place
- Provides redundancy, fault tolerance, load balancing
Hybrid Topology
A combo of one or more topologies
Wireless Topology
Infrastructure
- All devices communicate through an AP
Ad Hoc
- No pre existing infrastructure
- Devices communicate amongst themselves
Peer to Peer Network
- All devices are both clients and servers
- Easy to deploy
- Low cost
-Difficult to secure / administer
Peer to Peer Network
- Devices are both clients and servers
- Easy to deploy
- Low cost

Client Server Network
- Clients connect to a central server
- No client to client communication
LAN
- Local Area Network
- Ethernet and 802.11 wireless
MAN
Metropolitan Area Network
WAN
Wide Area Network
Connects LANs across long distances
WLAN
Wireless Local Area Network
Expand coverage with APs
PAN
Personal Area Network
Bluetooth, IR, NFC
CAN
Campus Area Network
CAN
Campus Area Network
NAS
Network Attached Storage
Shared storage device on the network
File level access
SAN
Storage Area Network
Looks and feels like a local storage device
Block level access
MPLS
Multiprotocol Label Switching
Packets through the WAN have labels
Any transport medium, any protocol inside
mGRE / DMVPN
Multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation
Used with dynamic multipoint VPN
Remote sites communicate directly to each other, tunnels are built dynamically (Dynamic Mesh)
SD-WAN
Software defines WAN
Cloud based applications communicate directly to the cloud, no need to hop to a central point
Demarcation Point
Physical location that designates the connection point between the internal network and the providers network
SmartJack
A network interface unit that allows providers to remote in and troubleshoot
NFV
Network Function Virtualization
Replace physical network devices with virtual versions (quick and easy deployment)
Same functionality as a physical device (Routing, switching, firewall, load balancing)
