DNS stands for domain name system. Websites are accessed by their domain names such as google.com and yahoo.com. But these names are not understood by the computer. The DNS translates these names into IP addresses so that the browsers can load them for the users. DNS converts the hostname of the website into an IP address that is readable by the computer. The converting of hostnames into IP addresses is called forward lookup. Converting or resolving IP addresses into hostnames is called backward lookup.

- UWB is Radio Frequency technology that transmits binary data, using low energy and short duration impulses over a wide spectrum of frequencies. It delivers data over 15 to 100 meters and does not require a dedicated radio frequency. For example, a UWB signal centered at 5GHz typically extends across 4GHz and 6GHz. At longer distances, UWB data rates drop considerably. - Bluetooth:- The key difference among UWB and Bluetooth are of range, power, consumption and intended use. It is basically meant for short distances up to (10m). It is low power consuming than UWB. - Since FireWire is meant to deliver high speed, it is also designed to work with high power drain services. It therefore can provide much more power to the devices that connect to it. It can deliver up to 60 watts of energy. So the only difference here is of power it uses more power than UWB. - Wi-Fi really wasn't built to move audio and video, it was built for data traffic where if there's delay, while UWB is better suited for multimedia for a couple of reasons, i.e. for starters, it's throughput for surpasses that of Wi-Fi.

Latency is the time it takes for data to make a round trip. We measure latency in milliseconds. A low number is good. A high number is bad. You send a message and wait for a response. The time you wait is referred to as latency. It is the time for a signal to travel to a server and then come back to you. When playing an online game, low latency is crucial. High latency causes lag. It makes the game feel slow. The same applies to video calls. High latency makes conversations difficult. It is not the same as speed. Speed, or bandwidth, is how much data you can move at once. Latency refers to the time it takes for any piece of data to travel. You can have a fast connection with bad latency. This would feel like a big highway with a long delay at a traffic light.

A VLAN is a way to divide a single physical network into multiple logical networks using a switch. Even though all devices may be connected to the same switch, VLANs make it work as if there were separate networks. Okay, so to understand this better, you should think of LAN. In a regular setup, all devices connected to a switch belong to the same broadcast domain. So any broadcast message like ARP is sent to everyone. Now here's what VLAN does. - Basically all the devices are grouped into different VLANs, and each VLAN acts like its own separate network. So from here, broadcast traffic stays within that VLAN and does not reach others. - Another interesting part is that devices in the same VLAN can communicate as if they are on the same LAN, even if they are connected through different physical switches. This is possible because VLAN information is carried across all the switches by using the 802.1Q standard, which adds a VLAN ID ranging from 1 to 4094 to Ethernet frames. Now, what if two devices are in different VLANs? Unfortunately, they won't be able to communicate directly. Communication between VLANs requires inter-VLAN routing, which is done using either a router or a Layer 3 switch. So Why VLANs are actually used? With the use of VLAN, the grouping becomes possible based on function instead of physical location. For example: There can be HR department in one VLAN and Engineering in another This mainly helps in: - improving security - reducing broadcast traffic - making network management more flexible Because of this, most switches use VLAN 1, unless it is configured to be otherwise.

A proxy server is a computer or system that works like a middleman between your device and the internet. It is used for better security, privacy, control, and faster access to some websites. If you want to open a website on your browser, you just type the address, and it will open the website. But when a proxy server is used, your request first goes to the proxy server, which then sends it to the website. Why do companies use a proxy server? There are many reasons for using a proxy server. Here are some important ones: - Security: A proxy server hides the real IP Address of users. It can help protect systems from hackers. - Control: Companies use it to block websites like games or social media during work hours. - Faster Browsing: Some proxy servers save copies of websites in memory. If the user reloads this website, the server will serve it faster. - Privacy: A proxy server can hide the real identity of the user by showing its own server.

I've been involved in DR planning from the design phase. The key questions I ask are: what's our RTO—how long can the network be down?—and what's our RPO—how much data can we afford to lose? For a financial services client, both of those were measured in minutes, so we designed with active-active redundancy and real-time replication. For less critical operations, we might have RTO measured in hours and use regular backups. Specifically, I've implemented redundant links between data centers so traffic can automatically failover. I've also worked on documenting recovery procedures and testing them regularly because a plan that's never tested doesn't work. We do a quarterly DR test where we actually fail over the network to the backup data center and measure how long services are down. Those tests have revealed issues we would have missed in a real crisis. One thing I learned the hard way is that having backups isn't enough—you need to test restoration regularly because I've seen situations where backups were corrupted and nobody knew until they tried to use them.

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a logical segmentation of a physical network that separates broadcast domains within a switch. There are various reasons to use Virtual LANs. First of all VLANs are important for security. We can divide different departments traffic with VLANs. This also provides broadcast traffic reduce. Instead of one large network, we can divide our network into smaller parts. By doing this network management become easier. Follow-up Question: What is the difference between an access port and a trunk port? Access Port is a port which belongs to one VLAN and carries traffic for that VLAN. It is used for end devices like PCs and printers. Trunk Port is a port that carries traffic for multiple VLANs between switches. VLAN information is preserved using VLAN tagging (802.1Q). Follow-up Question: Can devices in different VLANs communicate directly? No, they cannot. Because the devices in different VLANs are in separate broadcast domains. Here, Inter-VLAN Routing is required. There are two ways to use Inter-VLAN Routing: Using a Router or using a Layer 3 switch to use Switch Virtual Interfaces.

IP Spoofing is essentially a technique used by hackers to gain unauthorized access to Computers. Concepts of IP Spoofing were initially discussed in academic circles as early as 1980. IP Spoofing types of attacks had been known to Security experts on the theoretical level. It was primarily theoretical until Robert Morris discovered a security weakness in the TCP protocol known as sequence prediction. Occasionally IP spoofing is done to mask the origins of a Dos attack. In fact, Dos attacks often mask the actual IP addresses from where the attack has originated from.

An IP address works well with the machines and systems but it doesn't necessarily tell you which application or service on that machine must handle the request. And that is why, Port numbers are used. So basically, a port identifies a specific process or service running on a host. For example: 192.168.1.10:443 Here, 192.168.1.10 is the device, and 443 tells the system to route the request to the HTTPS service. This combination of IP address and port is called a socket, and it uniquely identifies a communication endpoint. Port numbers are divided into ranges: - 0–1023 - well-known ports which are system-level services - 1024–49151 - registered ports - 49152–65535 - dynamic/ephemeral ports used temporarily by clients Here are some well-known ports that you should keep in mind: - HTTP - 80 - HTTPS - 443 - FTP - 21 (control), 20 (data) - SSH - 22 - Telnet - 23 - SMTP - 25 - DNS - 53 - DHCP - 67/68 - POP3 - 110 - IMAP - 143 - SNMP - 161 Also remember! TCP and UDP handle ports separately. So port 53 (DNS) can work over both TCP and UDP. You can be asked this question as a follow-up during an interview: Q. Can two services use the same port?
