What is

stack.
What is
difference between ARP and RARP?
The
address resolution protocol (ARP) is used to associate the 32 bit IP address
with the 48 bit physical address, used by a host or a router to find the
physical address of another host on its network by sending a ARP query packet
that includes the IP address of the receiver.
The
reverse address resolution protocol (RARP) allows a host to discover its
Internet address when it knows only
its physical address.
What is attenuation?
The
degeneration of a signal over distance on a network cable is called
attenuation.
Difference between the communication and
transmission?
Transmission is a physical movement of information and concern issues
like bit polarity,
synchronization, clock etc. Communication means the meaning full
exchange of information between two communication media.
What is IPSec?
Short for IP Security, a set of protocols developed by the IETF to
support secure exchange of packets at the IP layer.

connectivity between computers . ICMP protocol works behind this utility. Under
it , sending node sends packets to destination node and reply is received if
there is proper communication between two.
What is Wifi & WiMax?
Simply
Wi Fi or wireless fidelity is a base band network technology that is
used for the wireless data
communication.
Wi-Fi is a shorter range system,
typically hundreds of meters, that uses unlicensed spectrum to provide
access to a network, typically covering only the network operator’s own
property. Typically Wi-Fi is used by an end user to access their own network,
which may or may not be connected to the Internet. If WiMAX provides services
analogous to a cellphone, Wi-Fi is more analogous to a cordless phone.
Wi Fi is a next form of the Wi fi. Wi max is a very high speed
broadband network technology that is designed for the corporate offices,
roaming and home users.
WiMax is a long range system, covering many kilometers,
that uses licensed and unlicensed to deliver a point-to-point connection to the
Internet from an ISP to an end user. Different 802.16 standards provide
different types of access, from mobile (analogous to access via a cellphone) to
fixed (an alternative to wired access, where the end user’s wireless
termination point is fixed in location.)
