Q

How does AH work?

A

The sender generates a one-way hash of the whole packet, then the receiver generates the same hash, and compares them.

Q

What are 4 benefits of subnetting?

A
  1. Reduced network traffic
  2. Optimised network performance
  3. Simplified management
  4. Facilitated spanning of large geographical distances
76
Q

What are 3 steps in designing subnets?

A
  1. Determine the number of network IDs
  2. Determine the number of host IDs per subnet
  3. Create subnets
77
Q

When subnetting, how many network IDs are required?

A

One for each subnet and one for each WAN link

78
Q

When subnetting, how many host IDs are required per subnet?

A

One for each TCP/IP host, one for each router interface

79

CIDR

A

Classless Inter-Domain Routing

80
Q

VLSM

A

Variable-Length Subnet Masking

81

  3. Overloading (or PAT)
83
Q

What is SNAT?

A

One to one mapping between local and global addresses

84
Q

What is DNAT?

A

Dynamically mapping addresses from a global pool to an internal address

85
Q

What is Overloading/PAT?

A

Mapping multiple local IP addresses to a single global address, using different ports.

86
Q

In NAT, what is a global address?

A

Global addresses are the addresses used after NAT translation.

87
Q

In NAT, what are local addresses?

A

Local addresses are the addresses used before NAT translation.

88
Q

What is an inside local address?

A

The address of the source before translation

89
Q

What is an outside local address?

A

The address of the destination before translation

90
Q

What is an inside global address?

A

91
Q

What is the outside global address?

A

The address of the destination after translation

92
Q

What does a router do when it gets a packet addressed to a network that is not in its routing table?

A

93
Q

When a host sends a packet to a remote network, what is the MAC address of the frame it sends?

A

The interface of its gateway router.

94
Q

What is the first high-level division of dynamic routing protocols?

A

It is between:
