• Understand media-access control
• Describe network addressing
• Create an addressing structure for a multidepartment business
• Examine the different methods of routing table generation
Instructions
Routers determine the path to a network using routing tables which list known networks. Routing tables are populated in one of three ways: directly connected networks are added to the table automatically, routes learned through one or more routing protocols are added automatically, or routes can be manually added as static routes. What impact does the explosion of the number of nodes on the Internet of Things have on the routing fabric? How feasible is it to maintain home routers manually? What security issues arise?
