List of the three types of unicast IP Networks
Class A, Class B, and Class C IP addresses
How do you identify a network?
By network ID, AKA network number or network address
Two-step process of how hosts route (forward) packets
1.Determine if the packet is in the same subnet, and forward it to the host if it is.
2. Forward the packet to the default gateway/default router if the packet is not on the same subnet
four-step process of how routers route (forward) packets
1. Process the frame against the FCS. If it fails, discard it.
2. If not discarded, discard the data link header and trailer. This leaves the IP packet.
3. Use routing table to determine what route to take. Identifies outgoing interface, and possibly next-hop router IP address.
4. Encapsulate IP packet inside new data link header & trailer
Goals of IP routing protocols regarding filling the routing table
To dynamically learn and fill the routing table with a route to each subnet in the internetwork
Goals of IP routing protocols regarding handling multiple routes to a subnet
If more than one route to a subnt is available to plac the best route in the routing table
Goals of IP routing protocols regarding bad routes
To notice when routes in the table are no longer valid, and to remove them from the routing table.
Goals of IP routing protocols regarding recovering from bad routes
If a route is removed from the routing table and another route through another neighboring router is availabke to add the route to the routing table. (often viewed as the same goal regarding removing routes)
Goals of IP routing protocols regarding adding new routes or replacing lost routes
To work quickly when adding new routes or replacing lost routes. (convergence)
Goals of IP routing protocols regarding loops
loops are bad.
Routing protocols aim to avoid this process.
3 steps routing protocols use to lear routes
1. Each router (regardless of protocol) adds one route to its routing table for each directly-connected subnet
2. Each router's routing protocol tells its neighbors about the routes in its routing table
3. After learning a new route, the router's protocol adds a route to itse IP routing table, with the next-hop router of that route typically beign the neighbor from which the route was learned.
Purpose of DNS name and resolution
Allows user-friendly names to be used instead of network addresses
Process of DNS name and resolution
1. When resolving a name to address, the host first queries the DNS server for the network address
2. The DNS server may escalate the request until it gets a reply
3. The DNS server replies to the host with the network address
4. The host can now contact the server by network address
2-step Process of ARP
1. Host sends an ARP request to the network broadcast address (all devices on LAN) containing sender's IP and MAC, and the target's IP.
2. Target responds to initial request (unicast) including their IP and MAC addresses.
Define ARP
Address Resolution Protocol. An Internet protocol used to map an IP address to a MAC address.
What defines ARP?
Defined in RFC 826.
Define default router (default gateway)
On an IP host, the IP address of some router to which the host sends packets when the packet’s destination address is on a subnet other than the local subnet.
Define DNS
Domain Name System. An application layer protocol used throughout the Internet for translating host names into their associated IP addresses.
Define dotted decimal notation (DDN)
The format used for IP version 4 addresses, in which four decimal values are used, separated by periods (dots).
Define host name
The alphameric name of an IP host.
Define IP network
An IPv4 network would be any network that can be routed to using IPv4
Define IP packet
An IP header, followed by the data encapsulated after the IP header, but specifically not including any headers and trailers for layers below the network layer.
Define IP subnet
Subdivisions of a Class A, B, or C network, as configured by a network administrator.
What is the purpose of IP Subnets?
They allow a single Class A, B, or C network to be used instead of multiple networks, and still allow for a large number of groups of IP addresses, as is required for efficient IP routing.
Define IPv4 addresss
A 32-bit address assigned to hosts using TCP/IP. Each address consists of a network number, an optional subnetwork number, and a host number. The network and subnetwork numbers together are used for routing, and the host number is used to address an individual host within the network or subnetwork.
Define ping
An Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo message and its reply. Ping often is used in IP networks to test the reachability of a network device.
Define routing protocol
A set of messages and processes with which routers can exchange information about routes to reach subnets in a particular network. Examples of routing protocols include the Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol, and the Routing Information Protocol (RIP).
Define routing table
A list of routes in a router, with each route listing the destination subnet and mask, the router interface out which to forward packets destined to that subnet, and as needed, the next-hop router’s IP address.
Define subnetting
The process of subdividing a Class A, B, or C network into smaller groups called subnets.
Define unicast IP address
Generally, any address in networking that represents a single device or interface, instead of a group of addresses (as would be represented by a multicast or broadcast address).
Define path selection
It can either refer to the routing process or how routing protocols select the best route among the competing routes to the same destination.
What is the default router?
It is also known as the default gateway
Define Next Hop router

In an IP route in a routing table, part of a routing table entry that refers to the next IP router (by IP address) that should receive packets that match the route.
