HubsHubs very simple devices that pass all traffic in both
directions between the LAN sections they link same or different cable types use physical layer protocols pass on every message used to connect LANs of similar technology, or to
extend the distance of one LAN can be called repeaters or amplifiers

HubsHubs inexpensive easy to Install can connect different media very little delay
limited distance between devices limited on the number of repeaters no protocol or rate conversion no error detection does not filter

BridgesBridges connect two LAN segments that use the same data
link and network protocol operated at the data link layer same or different cable types forward only those messages that need to go out
(filtering) “learn” whether to forward packets internal routing table combination of “black box” hardware and software

There are three types of bridges: Simple bridge Learning bridge Multiport bridge

BridgesBridges may be different data rates and different media easy
to Install no modifications required to the communications
software can learn the ports for data transmission
understand only data link layer protocols and addresses
no protocol conversion broadcasts when it does not know the address

SwitchesSwitches connect more than two LAN segments that use
the same data link and network protocol. operate at the data link layer same or different type cable ports are usually provided for 4, 8, 16, or 32 LAN
segments ports are used simultaneously connect lower speed segments to high speed BN

SwitchesSwitches Cut-through switches
use circuit-switching to immediately connect the port with the incoming message to the correct outgoing port
very fast as decisions are done in hardware outgoing packet is lost if port is in use
Store-and-forward switches copy the incoming packet to memory prior to
processing the destination address -- transmit it when the outgoing port is ready

SwitchesSwitches much more sophisticated than previously enable all ports to work at the same time can convert protocols configurable high speed
understand only data link layer protocols and addresses
much more expensive then previous options higher maintenance

RoutersRouters connect two or more LANs that use the same or
different data link protocols, but the same network protocol.
same or different cable types operate at the network layer forward only messages that need to go out routers use the internetwork address internal routing tables only processes messages addressed to it
Chapter 8

RoutersRouters choose the best route to send the packet (path)
IDs of other networks paths to the networks relative efficiency of the paths

RoutersRouters The router must deal with network differences:
addressing schemes minimum packet size interfaces reliability

RoutersRouters can mix-in-match protocols and convert them enable all ports to work at the same time can be used as an extra layer of security configurable high speed
hard to configure and manage access lists must be kept current high maintenance/high training costs very expensive

BroutersBrouters devices that combine the functions of both bridges
and routers operate at both the data link and network layers same or different data link protocol same network protocol as fast as bridges for same data link type networks

GatewaysGateways complex machines that are interfaces between two or
more dissimilar networks connect two or more LANs that use the same or
different data link layer, network layer, and cable types operates at the network layer (3) or higher layers (4-7) forwards only those messages that need to go out a combination of both hardware and software

GatewaysGateways translates one network protocol to another translates data formats translates open sessions between application
programs translates to mainframes

LAN-to-IBM mainframe Network-to-network System-to-network System-to-system

LAN-to-IBM MainframeLAN-to-IBM Mainframe Allow LANs using TCP/IP and Ethernet to be
connected to IBM mainframe using SNA Eliminates the need for each PC on the LAN to
have SNA hardware/software that makes it act like an IBM 3270 terminal

another vendor’s architecture allows both the existence of OSI-based and
proprietary architectures (like SNA or AppleTalk) gives management to tools necessary to plan a
gradual migration to a completely OSI environment applications can work with other application

Terminology WarningsTerminology Warnings Multiprotocol bridges translate between different data
link layer protocols. Multiprotocol routers translate between different network
layer protocols. Protocol filtering bridges forward only packets of a
certain type, i.e., token-ring or ethernet Encapsulating bridges connect networks with different
data link protocols, encapsulating messages with correct protocol for transmission
Layer-3 switches (IP switches) - can also switch messages based on their network layer address
