Ques: Explain Network Components.
Ans. Some hardware devices are required to connect the two or more computers or
devices for proper functioning and data transmission. These such devices are considered
as networking components.
SWITCH – A network switch is a device, which connects different computers and devices
on a computer network. A switch receives data, process it and then forwards it only to the
destination device. It uses packet switching techniques to transfer data on the network.
HUB – A hub is a networking device which is similar to a switch. But unlike a switch
which transmits the information to a particular device, a hub transmits the received
information to all devices that are connected to it. Hubs are known as Dumb Switches.
Hubs are comparatively cheaper than the switches.
REPEATER – A repeater simply copies the information arriving at its input and
retransmit it from the output. The weakened or distorted signals at the input are
regenerated and then retransmitted by the repeater.
ROUTER – A router is a networking device that is designed to forwards data packets
between computer networks. A router examines a destination IP address of a given data
packet, and it uses the headers and forwarding tables to decide the best way to transfer
the packets. Routers perform the traffic directing functions on the Internet. Data sent
through the internet, such as a web page or email, is in the form of data packets. It can
be internal or external.
BRIDGE – In terms of networking, a bridge network is a Link Layer device which
forwards traffic between network segments. A bridge can be a hardware device or a
software device running within a host machine’s kernel.
The bridge works at the Data link layer (layer 2) of the OSI model.
The data link layer ensures that all packets of information are passed on free of errors
