CCNA: Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)

The Network DNA

CCNA: Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) In this article, we will talk about ARP that maps the layer 3 address to the layer 2 MAC address. This is similar to Address Resolution Protocol, which maps layer 3 IP addresses to the layer MAC addresses. CCNA RnS Article #28: Why Spanning Tree Protocol? IP address.

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. These applications are identified using the port numbers.

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.

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. Lets say HTTP uses port 80 to identify the application at PC-2, PC-1 chooses Port 80 as the destination port and selects a random port 36000 as the source port.

How to Solve the Cloud vs On-Premise Security Dilemma

CATO Networks

With Catos LAN Firewall policy, you can configure rules for allowing or blocking LAN traffic directly on the Socket, without sending traffic to the POP. Figure 3 – LAN Firewall Policy When to use a LAN firewall policy There are several scenarios in which it could make sense to apply a LAN firewall policy.

Which SSE Can Replace the Physical Datacenter Firewalls?

CATO Networks

Rather, these firewalls are also used for securing WAN access, datacenter LAN segmentation and ensuring reliability and high availability to network traffic. Secure LAN Access SSE should secure VLAN traffic using access control and threat prevention engines. This must be done at the nearest SSE PoP to avoid latency.

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. Get the Path with Traceroute.
