what are the benefits of Subnetting?
- efficiency
- security
- full control
Which network topology has these features?
* most common
* most reliable
* most scalable
* costly
* more cable and device required
Star Topology
Which network device do these?
* aggregate multiple other devices
* more efficient than hubs/repeaters
switch
Switch, instead of repeating the packet to every port like a […..?….] would do, it just sends it to the intended target, so reduces network traffic
hub
Which network device connects networks and pass data between them?

-aa-
-a
-aa
[….] is splitting up a network into smaller networks within itsel
Subnetting

IP address
What is the special address assigned to a device on the network that is capable of sending information to another network?
Default Gateway
[…..] can use any host address but usually use either the first and the last host address in the network ( .1 or .254)
Default gateway
What address is used to identify devices within a network?
Host Address
[…] allowing devices identify themselves on a network
ARP
Simply ….. allows a device to associate its MAC address with an IP address on the network
