In fully meshed network every node device is connected with every other node available in the network. According to the increase in number of nodes, the number of wires or connections required to connect them also increases....

First, if a device wants to send the data, it checks if the bus is in an idle state. If the bus is in an idle state, the device starts transmitting the packets into the bus....

For Fast Ethernet setups devices are typically linked using twisted pair copper wires known as 100BaseTX (with a maximum segment length of 100 meters). Optical fibers come into play when longer distances are required, such as with 100BaseFX (where the maximum segment length extends to 2000 meters). To enable transmission over fibers, a converter like 100BaseTX to 100BaseFX is needed at the senders end. Similarly at the receivers end a converter from 100BaseFX to 100BaseTX is important. This difference in segment lengths allows for network configurations that address both range and long range communication purposes....

A hostname is defined as a unique label that is being assigned to each device that is connected over a computer network. Hostname helps to easily distinguish it from other available network devices as it is in human-readable form....

Subnet masks are comprised of a series of consecutive binary 1s followed by binary 0s, indicating the network portion and the host portion of an IP address, respectively....

A parity is an error coding method to find errors in digital data. A parity bit is an extra bit which is added in binary message to make total number of 1’s either even or odd. While reading or receiving the data parity check is made to find the errors in data. It is used for error detection in the original data at the receiver side and correcting the data. Parity word denotes the number of 1’s in binary string. There are two parity systems: even or odd. Even parity and odd parity are two methods which are used in data transmission to ensure the integrity of transmitted data. Both methods involve adding an extra bit to the data being transmitted, which is called parity bit, which is used for error detection....

To find the network IP address of a computer using its computer name:...

Identifying whether an IP address is private or public involves examining its range and context within a network....

Default address is also known as a placeholder address, and it means the IP address that is connected to this network, when no address is present, or the server is simply unable to connect to the memory program. The IP route 0.0.0.0 sends packets to the program when the destination is unknown. It is the default route for each memory program execution. For eg. If the internet service provider is using the IP Address: 192.168.1.2, then the default address of this IP Address will be indicated by 0.0.0.0....
