RIP

Repeater

Takes incoming signal and re-transmits it to extend distance

Hub

Takes incoming signal and re-transmits it out all ports except incoming. Like a multi-port repeater.

Bridge

Connects two otherwise separate networks. Takes incoming signal and decides whether to forward it or filter it based on MAC address.

Switch

Takes incoming signal and forwards it on only to port it is intended for. Some switches can also contain routing functionality.

Router

Forwards data packets between networks.

Firewall

Protects one portion of a network from another. Can be software or hardware based.

Wireless Access Point

Allow users to connect to the network using various 802.11 wireless protocols. Most have support for multiple protocols, known as dual-band. Can have integrated security functions or can have those provided by wireless LAN controller.

Wireless LAN Controller

Connects multiple access points together to provide centralized management and security.

Access Layer

Provides workgroup/user access to network


* Port security


* Layer 2 switching


* Address resolution protocol (ARP) inspection


* Spanning tree protocol (STP)


* Virtual access control lists (VACLs)


* Power over ethernet (PoE)


* QoS classification

Distribution Layer

Provides policy based connectivity


*Aggregation of LAN/WAN links


*Redundancy


*Load balancing


*Policy based access control lists (ACLs)


*Routing services between LANs and VLANs


*Broadcast domain control

Core Layer

Backbone layer that provides connectivity between separate distribution layers


*High speed switching


*Reliability and fault tolerance

Three-Tier Architecture

Separates network into smaller layers/tiers to ease management.


*Access layer


*Distribution layer


*Core layer

Collapsed Core Architecture

In smaller networks the distribution and core layer functions can be combined into one layer, simplifying network design and equipment needed.

Network Topology

Layout of the various network devices showing how data flows through the network. Does not necessarily depict the physical layout of the network.

Star Network Topology

One central device that all other devices flow through.


Advantage: Simple to setup and add new nodes


Disadvantage: One single point of failure

Full Mesh Network Topology

All network devices are connected to every other network device.


Advantage: Complete redundancy. Always have optimal path.


Disadvantage: High cost. Hard to add new nodes (exponentially increases the number of connections needed)

Partial Mesh Network Topology

Some nodes may only connect to one other while other nodes connect to 2 or more others.


Advantage: Easier to scale. Still provides some redundancy. Lower cost than full mesh.


Disadvantage: Less redundancy than full mesh

Hybrid Network Topology

Not a topology on its own, but a combination of other topologies that are connected together.


Advantage: Ability to choose the best topology for each portion of the network.


Disadvantage: More analysis and constant evaluation needed.
