Here, are important benefits of Hamming code
<> The Hamming code method is effective on networks where the data streams are given for the single-bit errors.
<> Hamming code not only provides the detection of a bit error but also helps you to indent bit containing error so that it can be corrected.
<> The ease of use of hamming codes makes it suitable for use in computer memory and single-error correction.

A VPN or Virtual Private Network is an encrypted connection (secure tunnel) built on the internet from a device to a network. It helps in the creation of a protected network between different networks using the internet (public network), ensuring that sensitive data is safely transmitted. This makes it difficult for third parties to gain unauthorized access, track your activities online, or steal data. By using the VPN, a client can connect to the organization’s network remotely.
Some of the advantages of using VPN Connection are:
1. Remote Access
2. Protected File Sharing
3. Anonymity
4. Enhanced Security
5. Improved Performance
6. Anonymity
7. Network Scalability
8. Prevents Data Throttling

In two-way communication, the receiver sends an acknowledgment to the sender on receiving the data packets. Suppose the receiver does not send the acknowledgment immediately and waits till the network layer passes in the following data packet. In that case, an acknowledgment is attached to the outgoing data frame. This process is known as piggybacking.

Ethernet is a computer network technology used to connect multiple computers or devices over a wired connection and create a local area network (LAN). It provides a simple interface by connecting devices together with a cable to share information. Ethernet works on layer 1 (physical) and layer 2 (data link layer) of an OSI model and can connect up to 1024 personal computers. An Ethernet network may use various topologies such as a star, bus, ring, etc. Wired Ethernet networks are connected via fibre optic cables, while the wireless Ethernet network uses wireless NICs. Ethernet network is very reliable, and data is transmitted as well as received at very high speed. To ensure the security of the data, Ethernet makes use of firewalls.

ATM stands for Asynchronous Transfer Mode and is a switching technique used by telecommunication networks to encode data into small fixed-size packets called cells. These cells are ideal for time-division multiplexing (TDM) and transmit them over a physical medium.
Each ATM cell is 53 bytes long with a 5-byte header and a 48-byte payload. Since all the data is encoded into identical cells, the transmission is simple and uniform. This reduces packet overload and ensures that mixed traffic is handled efficiently. ATM is the core protocol used for Synchronous Optical Network (SONET), Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) and other high-speed networks. ATM networks can easy to work with and are scalable both in size and speed.

VLSM stands for Variable Length Subnet Masking. It is a subnet design strategy that allows subnet masks to have variable sizes within the same network. In other words, it involves a process of subnetting a subnet. VLSM enables network engineers to divide an IP address into different sized subnets and allocate it according to the network needs. This means that more than one mask is used for different subnets of a single class A, B, or C networks, thereby increasing the usability of subnets. The network administrator must use the relevant supporting routing protocol to use VLSM such as Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS), Routing Information Protocol v2 (RIPv2), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF).

BOOTP sends a UDP message with a subnet work broadcast address and waits for a reply from a server that gives it the IP address. The same message might contain the name of the machine that has the boot files on it. If the boot image location is not specified, the workstation sends another UDP message to query the server.

A Ping is a software utility used to verify the reachability of a specific IP address on a network. It was first developed by Michael Muss in 1983 to quickly test various points of the network and get a response. It works by sending Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo requests to the host of a destination computer and then waiting for an echo reply. The ping is initiated several times to get responses echoed back to the source provides important information such as –
<> consistency in the network connection
<> bytes sent and received
<> approximate duration of the round-trip time
<> packets sent, received, or lost

The three types of routing tables are fixed, dynamic, and fixed central.
<> A fixed table must be manually modified every time there is a change.
<> A dynamic table changes its information based on network traffic, reducing the amount of manual maintenance.
<> A fixed central table lets a manager modify only one table, which is then read by other devices. The fixed central table reduces the need to update each machine's table, as with the fixed table. Usually a dynamic table causes the fewest problems for a network administrator, although the table's contents can change without the administrator being aware of the change.
