What is a default gateway ?
The address of router interface connected to the same local network as a source host
Advantages of local network segment ?
Simple network Less complex Lower network cost More direct contact Fast data tranfer Ease of device access
Disadvantages of Local Network segment ?
Slow network performance
Harder to implement QoS
Harder to implement security
Advantages of Remote Network access ?
Larger, complex network Split domain - decreases traffic Can improve performance Invisible to other network Increased security
Disadvantages of Remote Network Segment?
Use of routing
Slow traffic between segments
More complex and expensive
