1. Station transmits a probe that is then replied by the access point

2. Process of directing a datagram from its source through an internetwork to its destination using the most efficient path.

3. FDDI

4. (local area network) network of computers and others that is confined to a relatively small space

5. Transport layer protocol that services a request without requiring a verified session and without guaranteeing delivery data

6. Which layer is responsible for putting data into frames as well as providing error checking data?

7. A type of transmission in which the entire channel capacity of the communications medium (such as cable) is used by one data signal - enabling only one node to transmit at a time.

8. Distinct communication path between two or more nodes; may be separated logically or physically

9. Type of switching for multiple data packets make up the same transmission and use identical paths to reach the destination

10. BIND

11. Describes the relative strength over a three dimensional area of an antenna

12. Process of adjusting IDPS to maximize efficiency in detecting true positives - while minimizing false positives and false negatives

13. Internet control message protocol

14. A service on a node

15. AH

16. A network on which any computer can communicate with other networked computers on an equal (peer) basis without going through an intermediary - such as a server. Peer-to-peer networking enables each computer to offer and access shared resources - suc

17. Core TCP/IP protocol that operates in the Network layer and provided information about how and where data should be delivered; subprotocol that enables TCP/IP to inernetwork

18. (metropolitan area network) used with a handful of buildings and larger then a LAN - connects two or more Lans

19. Model for understanding and developing computer-to-computer communication developed in the 80s by ISO; divides networking functions among 7 layers

20. Default subnet mask for 154.13.44.87

21. User watching an episode of TV show over the internet is what kind of communication

22. Virtually local area network-device-switch

23. On a computer that receives data over a network - the process in which the device interprets the lower-layer headers and - when finished with each header - removes the header - revealing the next-higher-layer PDU.

24. IPv6 addressing - multicast group

25. Type of multiplexing that assigns a unique frequncy band to each communications subchannel
