    Great explanations on switching and routing. A routing table is a database that keeps track of paths, like a map and uses these to determine which way to forward traffic. A routing table is a data file in RAM used to store route information about directly connected and remote networks. A router can link both LAN (Local Area Network) as well as WAN (Wide Area Network) and transmit data to other connected networks. A switch can join multiple devices in a LAN.

    In short, routing is the process of moving data between two devices. Forwarding is the process of collecting data from one device and sending it to another device. Switching involves collecting data from one device and sending it to multiple devices based on the MAC address of the packets. The fundamental difference between a switch and a router is that a switch belongs only to its local network and a router belongs to two or more local networks. Routing tables typically involve destination networks, less frequently do they involve individual host IPs. “Switch tables” as you call them are a lookup list, showing which hardware address (port) to send traffic. A Hub supports half-duplex i.e., only one device can send or receive data at a time while a switch supports full duplex i.e., both devices can send and receive data at the same time. A switch is located on the second layer of the OSI model while a Hub is located on the first layer. Layer 2 switches are faster than routers because they do not take up time looking at the Network layer header information. Instead, it examines the frame’s hardware address to determine what to do with the frame (forward, flood, or discard).

    You have wonderfully written about protocols and purposes. In most cases, communication across a network like the Internet uses the OSI model. The OSI model has seven layers. Secured connections, network management, and network communication are the main networks. In networking, a protocol is a set of rules for formatting and processing data. Network protocols are like a common language for computers.

    There are three main types of network protocols: These include network management protocols, network communication protocols, and network security protocols. Network Management Protocol Purpose Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet standard protocol for collecting and organizing information about managed devices on an IP network and for modifying this information to change the behavior of the devices. is. Devices that typically support SNMP include cable modems, routers, switches, servers, workstations, printers, and more. The purpose of a network communications protocol is to define a set of protocols (that is, rules and standards) that enable network communications or internetworking to enable application programs to communicate with each other, regardless of the hardware or operating system on which they run. is. Ultimately, network security protocols are the rules and procedures that govern the secure transmission of data over computer networks. These protocols ensure that hackers, viruses, and other unauthorized persons or systems cannot access other people’s personal data and information. Network security protocols are network protocols that ensure the integrity and security of data sent over network connections. The specific network security protocols used depend on the type of data being protected and the network connection. A good network security system can help your business reduce the risk of data theft and sabotage. Network security helps protect your workstation from harmful spyware. It also ensures that your shared data remains secure.

    I hear God’s voice when I am in any kind of struggle, depression, and in praying. God’s voice helps me to find a solution for my struggles or in any way going through tough times. I am hearing God’s voice because I am close to God. Many times, Scriptures describes God speaking to His people through a voice, an angel, or a dream. He even writes on a wall in one account (Daniel 5). So, it is natural to want to hear God’s voice or see a big sign that will help you feel confident in God’s direction. People will experience confusing circumstances. Sometimes you might just want God to send you a text message to tell you what to do. You feel far from God and want Him to reach out to reassure you He is still there. You have heard people say the God of the Bible is personal, but you have never interacted with God before and wonder how to begin.

    Great explanations on network devices and their essential functions. Just as a switch connects multiple devices to create, a router connects multiple switches, and their respective networks, to form an even larger network. These networks may be in a specific location or across multiple locations. When building a small business network, you will need one or more routers.

    Perfectly written about troubleshooting process and the reasons in understanding way. Troubleshooting initially looks for common, known causes. For example, when a laptop does not boot up, an obvious first step is to check whether the power cable is working. Once common issues are ruled out, troubleshooters must run through a checklist of components to identify where the failure is happening.

    The four network devices are hubs, routers, gateways, and modems. A hub is a physical layer network device used to connect multiple devices on a network. Typically used to connect computers on a LAN. A hub has many ports. Computers that connect to the network are connected to one of these ports. Routers form networks and manage the flow of data within and between those networks. Modems, on the other hand, connect those networks to the Internet. Modems connect to the Internet by converting signals from your ISP into digital signals that connected devices can interpret. A modem receives a signal from your ISP and converts it into a signal that local devices can use, and vice versa. The connection between your home and the Internet is called a wide area network (WAN). Each modem is assigned a public IP address that identifies the modem on the Internet. A gateway is a computer on a network that provides an interface between two applications or networks that use different protocols. Also used to connect to the Internet. Gateways in a network convert information from one protocol to another and send it over the Internet.

    When you begin troubleshooting, check all hardware to ensure it is properly connected, powered on, and functioning. If a cable is loose or someone turned off an important router, that could be the cause of your network problems. Merely connecting cables is of no use when troubleshooting network issues. Make sure all switches are in the correct position and have not been accidentally hit. Then power cycle the hardware. This is the heart of IT troubleshooting, and although it seems simple, it can often actually solve problems. You may be able to fix a simple problem by turning your modem, router, and PC off and on again. However, leave each device powered off for at least 60 seconds before turning it on again. If possible, reproduce the problem on test hardware or software. This will help you know what the problem is. Interview users on your network to learn more about errors and issues they encounter. Identify symptoms of network failure. Maintenance troubleshooting typically follows a systematic four-step approach. Resolve problems by identifying problems, planning responses, and testing solutions. Steps 1 through 3 are often repeated several times before a solution is found.

    To me Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. He died for our sins, and He rose from the dead for our justification. We can only get to God through Him. I am going to believe what Jesus says. Trust Him and allow Him to change our hearts. Continually seek to discover more about Him through studying the Bible, talking to Him in prayer and connecting with other believers. I will make Jesus the Lord of my life because I only trust Jesus for my all life. Yes, I would follow like Peter wherever Jesus calls me to follow Him. Jesus is important to me because through His Atonement, teachings, hope, peace, and example, He helps me change my life, face my problems, and move forward with faith as we journey back to Him and His Father. Jesus knew that not all his prayers would be answered as expected. This is a difficult prayer lesson to learn, but the fact of the matter is that not all our prayers are answered in ways we expect.

    Yes, I do identify me as a faithful Christian girl. Many individuals think that going to church very often or simply believing in God makes them a Christian. But the Bible presents a different point of view and definition of a Christian. A true Christian is someone whose behavior and heart reflects Jesus Christ which prove me a faithful Christian. God’s forgiveness and love are unconditional. He loved us while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8) and we do not earn His love by our good works. We were forgiven based on the perfect work of Jesus Christ. Until today I am trying to follow the 10 commandments because that is what God wants from us to stop doing sins every day. The 10 commandments are laws that God has revealed to us. Heeding the guidance God gives us in the Commandments will help us know how to serve God and how we should live with each other.

    I am observant, critical, and seeking God’s voice even in the noise and distractions of life. We must be willing to ask others for help and guidance so that we can hear God’s voice more clearly. So live a life worthy of your calling as a prisoner of the Lord. Be thoroughly humble and kind. Be patient and bear with each other in love. Make every effort to maintain unity of mind through the bonds of peace. The gospel call is mystical and subject to the sovereign will of God (Romans 8:30). The beauty of the mystical nature of the gospel call is that God calls people “out of darkness into his wondrous light” (1 Peter 2:9). God invites people “to the fellowship of his Son” (1 Corinthians 1:9). God calls us all to be His disciples and to do His work. In the bible God makes it clear that we must love others, care for the poor, and live so that others can see God in us.

    Jesus Christ died for the sins of humankind and willingly offered a sacrifice to save the world. It is a gift given to any man or women who accepts it, with the wonderful benefit of eternal life in Heaven. John 3:16 is also associated with his versus 17 and 18. Please understand this. God did not send His Son to judge you. God the Father His Son to save you through Jesus. According to verse 18, we can avoid being condemned to eternal hell by believing in Jesus because of God’s merciful gift to open us through Jesus Christ. Jesus promised to send the Holy Spirit to his disciples when he left. Then it would be to their advantage if Jesus left them. Jesus meant that the presence and work of the Holy Spirit was better for believers than the physical presence of Jesus. In John 3:5, Jesus tells Nicodemus, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.” This statement emphasizes the crucial role of spiritual rebirth in one’s relationship with God.

    Well-written about expansions which is necessary to know. An expansion card, an add- on card, is used to provide additional functionality to the system or to upgrade an existing function, such as sound or video. For example, an expansion card is a sound card, network card, or dedicated GPU. The most popular expansion slot standard is PCI Express (PCI-e).

    Playing cards is something that may be hooked up into a brand-new laptop you have bought or delivered as an improve aspects to growth the abilities of a laptop after the purchase. As you know, the cardboard has copper-plated contact and an area connector, which fits into a growth slot on a motherboard. We will cowl the one-of-a-kind sorts of slots later, however for now, I am simply declaring that the growth card contacts the motherboard’s slot contacts. The motherboard slot is typically designed in order that the contacts offer a small quantity of spring anxiety in contrast to the cardboard contacts. Along the cardboard’s the front side, you could see the metallic bracket that acts because the number one aid and receives screwed to the laptop case. These connectors offer connectivity to interface outside gadgets with the growth card and, finally, the laptop. Computers have expansion slots to give the user the ability to add new devices to their computer.
