Q

IDS

A

Intrusion Detection System

24
Q

IPS

A

Intrusion Prevention System

25
Q

Load-balancer

A

Distribute the load of the network across multiple servers

26
Q

TCP offload

A

Load-balancers can give protocol overhead, optimize the connection

27
Q

SSL offload

A

Load-balancers can offer Encryption/decryption to the connection

28
Q

Cacheing

A

Load-balancers can cache common requests for fast response

29
Q

Prioritization

A

Load-balancers that can prioritze different connections

30
Q

Content switching

A

Load-balances can see which servers might have already loaded what the connection wants so will send that to that particular server

31
Q

Proxies Servers

A

-Allows users to access a proxy server to prevent users from accessing the main server (for security reasons)
-On the user’s behalf, fulfills the request
- good place for caching

32
Q

NAS

A

Network Attached Storage
- connect to the shared storage device across the network
- file level access (user request a file then sends it back)

33
Q

SAN

A

Storage area network
- Looks and feels liek a local storage device
- Block-level acess
- Very efficient for reading/writing

34
Q

AP

A

Access point
Not a wireless point
- a wireless router that is both a router and an access point in a single device
- used for wireless communication
- holds an ethernet connection (layer2)

35
Q

Wireless LAN controller

A

Centralized management of access poitns
- Can deploy new access points
- Configure and deploy changes to all sites
- Contain reports on each access point
- Proprietary System (Created by the same manufacturer)

36
Q

CDN

A

Content delivery network
- Set up in geographic areas to get data from one place to another
- cache data in these data sites

37
Q

VPN

A

Virtual Private Network
- secure way to transfer data

38
Q

VPN’s Concentrator/head-end

A

integrated into a firewall (NGFW) where a piece of hardware allows the VPN to encrypt/decrypt access device

39
Q

QoS

A

Quality of Service
- Priotize different services
Ex. Discord might priotize video/audio QoS
- Priotize apps

40
Q

TTL

A

Time to live (a timer)
- repeititve tasks that might go on forever will have a stop point after a certain amount of time/iterations

41
Q

Routing loop

A

Routes where the it will go in a loop until it reaches a TTL
- each time it reaches a location, it reduces the TTL by 1 until it reaches 0 and stops the loop

42
Q

IP

A

Internet Protocol

43
Q

Mac/linux’s TTL

A

64 hops

44
Q

Window’s TTL

A

128 hops

45
Q

DNS

A

Domain Name System
- Transfer’s human readable domain names like www.google.com into machine readable IPs

46
Q

Elasticity

A

Scale up or down as needed

47
Q

Multitenancy (cloud)

A

Many users are using the same cloud infrastructure

48
Q

NFV
