1
Network Layer
Facilitates data exchange between end devices.
2
IPv4
Primary network layer protocol using 32-bit addresses.
3
IPv6
Advanced protocol using 128-bit addresses for addressing.
4
Addressing
Identifying end devices in a network.
5
Encapsulation
Wrapping transport layer data for network transmission.
6
Routing
Determining the path for data packets.
7
De-encapsulation
Extracting transport layer data from network packets.
8
Connectionless
No pre-established connection before packet sending.
9
Best Effort
No delivery guarantee for sent packets.
10
Media Independent
Operates over various physical media types.
11
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU)
Largest packet size allowed on a network.
12
Fragmentation
Splitting packets into smaller units for transmission.
13
IPv4 Packet Header
Contains routing and processing information for packets.
14
IPv4 Header Fields
Binary fields including source and destination addresses.
15
IPv4 Address Depletion
Shortage of available IPv4 addresses.
16
NAT
Translates private addresses to public addresses.
17
Increased Network Complexity
Complications arising from NAT usage.
18
IPv6 Improvements
Enhanced addressing and simplified packet handling.
19
IPv6 Header
Fixed 40 bytes, optimized for performance.
20
Extension Headers (EH)
Optional headers for additional network layer information.
21
Header Checksum
Field removed in IPv6 for performance enhancement.
22
Fragment Offset
Field removed in IPv6, relates to packet fragmentation.
23
Latency
Delay in packet transmission or processing.
24
Control Information
Data used to manage network layer operations.
25
Router
Device that forwards packets between networks.
26
Default Gateway
A router or layer 3 switch that forwards traffic from a local network to other networks.
27
Host Routing Tables
Tables that contain routing information for a host, displaying potential interfaces and routing paths.
28
Dynamic Routing
Routing that automatically discovers remote networks and maintains up-to-date routing information.
29
Static Routing
Routing that must be manually configured and adjusted by an administrator when network topology changes.
30
Routing Table
A list of known network addresses and the paths to forward packets.
31
Directly Connected Route
Routes automatically added by the router when the interface is active and has addressing.
32
Remote Route
Routes that the router does not have a direct connection to, learned either manually or dynamically.
33
Default Route
A route that forwards all traffic to a specific direction when there is no match in the routing table.
34
Best Effort Delivery
A method of data transmission that does not guarantee delivery of packets.
35
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)
A network layer protocol used for error messages and operational information exchange.
36
Data Payload
The actual data being transmitted in a packet, excluding header information.
37
Packet
A formatted unit of data carried by a packet-switched network.
38
Traffic Class
A field in the IPv6 header that indicates the priority of the packet.
39
Flow Label
A field in the IPv6 header used to identify packets that require special handling.
40
Hop Limit
A field in the IPv6 header that specifies the maximum number of hops a packet can take.
41
Local Host
A device that is on the same local area network (LAN) as the host.
42
Remote Host
A device that is not on the same local area network (LAN) as the host.
43
next-hop
The next router or device to which a packet is forwarded on its way to its destination.
44
route timestamp
A record of the time a route was added or updated in the routing table.
45
netstat -r
A command used to display the routing table on a Windows system.
46
show ip route
A command used to display the routing table on a router.
