RSTP, SNMPv3, SRTP, Flashcards
What is RSTP used for in network management?
RSTP prevents network loops that can cause broadcast storms and failures by rapidly identifying and deactivating unnecessary paths between switches, ensuring a loop-free environment.
Memory Hook: “Rapidly Straightening Tree Paths”
What is the purpose of Flood Guard in network security?
Flood Guard protects against MAC flooding attacks by limiting the number of MAC addresses that can be learned on a port, preventing resource exhaustion on network switches.
Memory Hook: “Flood Gate Controller”
How does SNMPv3 enhance network device management?
SNMPv3 allows secure monitoring and management of network devices by adding authentication, encryption, and access control to SNMP, enhancing security for network management tasks.
Memory Hook: “Secure Network Mailman”
What does SRTP provide for streaming media?
SRTP secures real-time voice and video data by providing encryption, message authentication, and integrity, ensuring the data is transmitted securely and without tampering.
