HUB
WHAT IS THE HUB ?
THE HUB IS NETWORK DEVICE THAT IS USE TO CONNECT
MULTIPLE COMPUTER IN A NETWORK
All the information send to the hub is automatically
send to each port to every device
A hub is less less expensive ,less intelligence and less
complicated
Hub generally used to connect computers in a lan
Transmission mode of hub is half duplex
ADVANTAGES
THE HUB CAN BROAD CAST THE MESSAGE
IT IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAT ANYONE CAN USE IT
EASY INSTALL
ROBUST
DISADVANTAGES
IF THE HUB IS FAILED THE INTIRE NETWORK WILL BE
FAILED
WE CAN’T SEND PRIVATE /PERSONAL DATA THROUGH HUB
HUB DOESN’T PROVIDE ANY SECURITY
HUB CAN’T SUPPORT FULL DUPLEX TRANSMISSION MODE
SWITCH
WHAT IS SWITCH ?
SWITCH IS A NETWORK DEVICE THAT CONNECTS MULTIPLE COMPUTERS TO
GETHER IN THE NETWORK
It is mainly used to send the private messege
as well as there is wasting of data
switch can esily identifie that which device is
connected with which port by using mac
address that’s why it delivered message on
particular destination machine
Swich is more intelligent than hub
ADVANTAGES
IT GENERALLY USED TO UNICAST THE MESSEGE
IT PROVIDES MORE SECURITY THAN HUB
SWITCH SUPPORT FULL DUPLEX DATA TRANSMISSION MODE
IT IS USED SEND THE DATA PACKET BASED ON MAC ADDRESS
DISADVANTAGES
IF SWITCH IS FAILED THEN ENTIRE NETWORK
WILL BE FAILED
IT IS MORE EXPENSIVE
DIFFICULT TO SETUP
BRIDGE
WHAT IS BRIDGE ?
BRIDGE IS A NETWORK DEVICE THAT IS USED TO SEPARATE
LAN INTO NO OF SECTION
It operates both physical as well as date link
layer of osi model
bridges filter and forward traffic bassed on
mac addresses
they reduce network collisions and segment
traffic
ADVANTAGES
BY USING BRIDGE DEVICE WE CAN EXTENDS NETWORK
IT BROADEST THE DATA TO EACH NODE LIKE
COLLISION CAN BE REDUCE EASILY
IT IS MORE INTELLIGENT
DISADVANTAGES
IT DOES’T STABLISH CONNECTION BETWEEN
TWO DIFFERENT NETWORK
IT IS MORE EXPENSIVE
ONCE IT BROAD CAST THE MESSEGE THEN IT
IS INCAPABLE TO STOP THE MESSEGES
