Another common storage
device is this lasers and
lights as its method of
writing and reading data.

A

Optical storage device

17
Q

Has started to replace
magnetic media, it is
more efficient and
reliable.

A

Flash memory

18
Q
Early computers had no method
of using any of the above
technologies for storing
information, these form is
rarely used.
A

Paper storage

19
Q
It operates at the
physical layer. Its job 
is to regenerate the
signal over the same 
network.
A

Repeater

20
Q
It is basically a 
multiport repeater. A hub 
connects multiple wires
coming from different 
branches.
A

HUB

21
Q
These are the hubs which 
have their own power supply 
and can clean, boost and 
relay the signal along the 
network.
A

Active HUB

22
Q
These are the hub which 
collect wiring from nodes 
and power supply from 
active hub. These hub relay 
signals onto network 
without cleaning and
boosting.
A

Passive Hub

23
Q

It operates a data link layer. It is a repeater, with add on functionality of filtering content by reading the MAC addresses of source and destination. It is used for interconnecting two LANS working on the same protocol.

A

BRIDGE

24
Q

These are the bridge in which the stations are completely unaware of the bridges existence i.e.

A

Transoparent Bridge

25
Q

is used ontoken ring networks, and is standardized in Section 9 of theIEEE802.2 standard. The operation of the bridge is simpler (spanning tree protocol is not necessary) and much of the bridging functions are performed by the end systems, particularly the sources, giving rise to its name.

A

Source Routing Bridge

26
Q

It is a multi port bridge with a
buffer and a design that can
boost can perform error, it
divides collision domain of host.

A

Switch

27
Q
In order for devices on the 
network to connect to 
theInternet, thismust 
be connected to a modem. 
Therefore, mostof thesehave 
a specific Ethernet port that 
is designed to connect to the 
Ethernet port
A

Routers

28
Q

It is a passage to connect
two networks together that
may work upon different
networking models.

A

Gateway

29
Q
Also known as a bridging
router which combines 
features of both bridge and 
router. It is working as a 
bridge, it can filter local area 
network traffic.
A

Brouter
