Mobile IP was originally approved as a draft standard of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in 1996. The original proposal was built on Request For Comments (RFCs) 2002-2006. Since then, a ...

Performance of a network is based on routing protocols. RIPv1, RIPv2, EIGRP and OSPF are the dynamic routing protocols being used in the practical networks to propagate network topology information to ...

Routing protocols were created for routers. These protocols have been designed to allow the exchange of routing tables, or known networks, between routers. There are a lot of different routing ...

I appreciate there isn't a one size fits all answer to this, but if you're in an environment with multiple switches/VLANs/firewalls etc. what is usually the point at which you go from entering static ...

Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) is self-organizing and self-configuring multichip wireless networks, where the structure of the network changes dynamically. This is mainly due to the mobility of the ...

Routing is the process of determining where to send data packets that are destined for addresses outside the local network. Routers gather and maintain routing information to enable the transmission ...

I love new security testing tools. There is nothing quite like finding some magical bits of code allowing you to use and abuse protocols in unique and unnatural ways. I was introduced to Loki at ...

We have recently spoken about IP routing, but there is something else that needs our attention, and it is all about the types of routes found in a routers routing table. It might sound confusing but ...

We have now met the archenemy of networks, Mr. Murphy, as he cackles “What can go wrong, will,” in the introduction to failure modes and the discussion of failure modes at the physical and data link ...
