Tentxa Layer Network (Line Configuration in Computer Networks)

Line Configuration in Computer Networks

Network is a connection made through connection links between two or more devices. Devices can be a computer, printer or any other device that is capable to send and receive data. There are two ways to connect the devices :
  1. Point-to-Point connection
  2. Multipoint connection

Point-To-Point Connection

It is a protocol which is used as a communication link between two devices. It is simple to establish. The most common example for Point-to-Point connection (PPP) is a computer connected by telephone line. We can connect the two devices by means of a pair of wires or using a microwave or satellite link.
Example: Point-to-Point connection between remote control and Television for changing the channels.

MultiPoint Connection

It is also called Multidrop configuration. In this connection two or more devices share a single link.
There are two kinds of Multipoint Connections :
  • If the links are used simultaneously between many devices, then it is spatially shared line configuration.
  • If user takes turns while using the link, then it is time shared (temporal) line configuration.

Tentxa layer Network ( Connection Oriented and Connectionless Services )

Connection Oriented and Connectionless Services These are the two services given by the layers to layers above them. These services are : Connection Oriented Service Connectionless Services Connection Oriented Services There is a sequence of operation to be followed by the users of connection oriented service. These are : Connection is established Information is sent Connection is released In connection oriented service we have to establish a connection before starting the communication. When connection is established we send the message or the information and then we release the connection. Connection oriented service is more reliable than connectionless service. We can send the message in connection oriented service if there is an error at the receivers end. Example of connection oriented is TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) protocol. Connection Less Services It is similar to the postal services, as it carries the full address where the message (letter) i...
