QUESTION # 01:
APPLICATION LAYER PROTOCOLS
These protocols provide the rules and regulation for communication between applications to
ensure smooth communication between two parties. The implementation on the source host
and destination host must be same in these protocols.
Some are the following main points about these protocols are as follows.
 Define the process for both parties to the communication.

 Define the message type.
 Define the syntax of the message.
 Define the way to send the message and the expected response.
QUESTION # 02:
ADVANCED PEER TO PEER NETWORKING
The advanced peer to peer networking is defined as a group of protocols meant for setting up a
program to program communication inside an IBM SNA Network.
A group of computers is configured automatically where peer programs of various computers

will be able to communicate without the use of network routing solutions.
This gives a better-distributed network control as the organization is peer to peer instead of
hierarchical. It also contains dynamic peer to peer exchange of information about the network
topology that helps with an easier connection, or reconfiguration or routing.
DATA DISTRIBUTED ACROSS PEERS STORAGE SYSTEMS
Dynamic peer to peer exchange of information gets stored in multiple peers and is not
centralized.
QUESTION # 03:
OSI VS TCP/IP
OSI TCP/IP
It stands for Open System Interconnection. It stands for Transmission Control Protocol.
Developed by ISO (International Standard Developed by ARPANET (Advance Research

Organization) Project Agency Network)
Consist of 7 layers. Consist of 4 layers.
It provides standardization to the devices like It does not provide the standardization to the
router, motherboard, switches, and other devices. It provides a connection between
hardware devices. various computers.
Session and presentation layers are a part of There is no session and presentation layer in
the OSI model. the TCP model.
QUESTION # 04:
10BASE5
10BASE5 uses a thick and stiff coaxial cable up to 500 meters (1,600 ft) in length. Up to 100
stations can be connected to the cable. It works only for 10 Mbps networks.
THICKNET
Thicknet denotes a coaxial cable type that is commonly used with Ethernet (10Base-5)
backbones.
RG-8
RG8 is a thicker 50 ohm cable, at 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) that can provide a stronger
signal than RG58.
10BASE2
It is a thinner version of coaxial cable to establish a network path or medium and operates at a
speed of 10 Mbps to carry out baseband transmission.
RG-58
Include feed cables for HF and VHF line-of-sight radio transmission antennas. It's also used for
broadcasting equipment and closed TV circuits.
QUESTION # 05:
FORMS OF ETHERNET CABLING
There are three types of Ethernet cable used for LAN which we discuss in below
 Twisted Pair Cable.

 Coaxial Cable.
 Fiber Optic Cable.
COAXIAL CABLE
Coaxial cable consists of a copper wire core covered by insulating material. The insulated
copper wire is covered by copper mesh. It protects the cable from electromagnetic waves. It is
the same cable that is used for television. It is used for long distance telephone lines and local
area networks. It is more expensive then twisted pair cable.
FIBER OPTICS CABLE
Fiber optic cable transmits data as pulses of light through tiny tube of glass. A typical fiber optic
consists of very narrow strand of glass called core. The strands are thin like human brain. The
core is the center of the fiber where light travels. There is a concentric layer of glass around the
core called Cladding. The most important characteristic of fiber optic is Refraction. Most
telephone companies ISPs and cable TV operators are being used fiber optics in their networks.
TWISTED PAIR CABLE
Twisted pair cable is one of the most commonly used communication media. This cable is
usually made up of copper. The pair of wire is twisted together to reduce noise. Noise is an
electrical disturbance that can degrade communication. It is normally used in local telephone
communication.
QUESTION # 06:
