VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP)

Back 1

VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) is a Cisco proprietary protocol that propagates the definition of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLAN) on the whole local area network. To do this, VTP carries VLAN information to all the switches in a VTP domain. VTP advertisements can be sent over 802.1Q, and ISL trunks.

IP Transit

Back 2

IP Transit is a service where an Internet Service Provider (ISP) allows traffic to travel through their network to its final destination

Tier 1 provider

Back 3

Tier 1 providers have an expansive global reach. These providers peer with each other and act as the global conduit to all networks – thus forming the “backbone” of the Internet.

MPLS

Back 4

Multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) is a mechanism used within computer network infrastructures to speed up the time it takes a data packet to flow from one node to another

Front 5

VPLS

Back 5

Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) is a way to provide Ethernet-based multipoint to multipoint communication over IP or MPLS networks. It allows geographically dispersed sites to share an Ethernet broadcast domain by connecting sites through pseudowires.

Front 6

SD-WAN

Back 6

SD-WAN is an acronym for software-definednetworking in a wide area network (WAN). An SD-WAN simplifies the management and operation of aWAN by decoupling (separating) the networking hardware from its control mechanism.

Switch

Back 11

A switch, in the context of networking is a high-speed device that receives incoming data packets and redirects them to their destination on a local area network (LAN).

Front 12

Router

Back 12

A router is a device that analyzes the contents of data packets transmitted within a network or to another network.

Front 13

Burst Usage

Back 13

A specific amount of data sent or received in one intermittent operation.

A burst operation implies that some threshold has been reached that triggers the burst.
