  2. Cyclic redundancy check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check

    Cyclic redundancy check. A cyclic redundancy check ( CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to digital data. [ 1][ 2] Blocks of data entering these systems get a short check value attached, based on the remainder of a polynomial division of their contents.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network_diagram

    Computer network diagram. A computer network diagram is a schematic depicting the nodes and connections amongst nodes in a computer network or, more generally, any telecommunications network. Computer network diagrams form an important part of network documentation.

  4. Network throughput - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_throughput

    It is typically measured at a reference point below the network layer and above the physical layer. The simplest definition is the number of bits per second that are physically delivered. A typical example where this definition is practiced is an Ethernet network. In this case, the maximum throughput is the gross bit rate or raw bit rate.

  5. Computer network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network

    An internetwork is the connection of multiple different types of computer networks to form a single computer network using higher-layer network protocols and connecting them together using routers. The Internet is the largest example of internetwork. It is a global system of interconnected governmental, academic, corporate, public, and private ...

  6. Bandwidth (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(computing)

    Bandwidth (computing) In computing, bandwidth is the maximum rate of data transfer across a given path. Bandwidth may be characterized as network bandwidth, [ 1] data bandwidth, [ 2] or digital bandwidth. [ 3][ 4] This definition of bandwidth is in contrast to the field of signal processing, wireless communications, modem data transmission ...

  7. Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet

    Ethernet ( / ˈiːθərnɛt / EE-thər-net) is a family of wired computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks (LAN), metropolitan area networks (MAN) and wide area networks (WAN). [ 1] It was commercially introduced in 1980 and first standardized in 1983 as IEEE 802.3. Ethernet has since been refined to support higher ...

  8. Daemon (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(computing)

    Daemon (computing) Components of some Linux desktop environments that are daemons include D-Bus, NetworkManager (here called unetwork ), PulseAudio ( usound ), and Avahi. In multitasking computer operating systems, a daemon ( / ˈdiːmən / or / ˈdeɪmən /) [ 1] is a computer program that runs as a background process, rather than being under ...

  9. Wireshark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireshark

    Wireshark is a data capturing program that "understands" the structure (encapsulation) of different networking protocols. It can parse and display the fields, along with their meanings as specified by different networking protocols. Wireshark uses pcap to capture packets, so it can only capture packets on the types of networks that pcap supports.
