Multi-Path TCP: revolutionizing connectivity, one path at a time

CloudFaire

Enter Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP), which exploits the presence of multiple interfaces on a device, such as a mobile phone that has both Wi-Fi and cellular antennas, to achieve multi-path connectivity. It's a major extension to the TCP protocol, and historically most of the TCP changes failed to gain traction. There is another way.

CCNA: TCP SEQ and Port Number

The Network DNA

CCNA: TCP Sequence & Port Number This article can be read as the second part of the previous article CCNA: 3-Way Handshake where we discussed what makes TCP a reliable protocol for transmitting information. Lets discuss the TCP SEQ and Port numbers in this article. Port Numbers range from 1 to 65535.

CCNA: TCP Three-Way Handshake

The Network DNA

CCNA: TCP 3-Way Handshake In this article, lets take a look at TCP three-way handshake and other useful information that makes TCP a reliable communication protocol. Before TCP can send any traffic, it first contacts the other device and establish a reliable and controlled connection. Now actual data transfer happens.

Network Troubleshooting in Depth: A Complete Guide

Send these pings using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) or TCP to one or any of the devices you believe to be involved. In some cases if ICMP is filtered, you can usually switch to TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and use tcping, telnet, or another TCP-based method to check for reachability.

Protocols of Transport Layer Explained

NW Kings

The protocols of transport layer play a significant role in data transmission across the network, ensuring reliable communication between sender and receiver. This blog will explore the key protocols within the transport layer, focusing on TCP ( Transmission Control Protocol ) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) in detail.

CCNA: MAC Address Table

The Network DNA

This table is populated automatically when a switch receives a frame on a port. As a frame is received on a port, its source MAC address is noted. The switch receives the frame from PC-1 that contains the MAC address 80::01 on port 1. Port 1 is configured as a member of VLAN-11. Then PC-1 wants to communicate with PC-2.
