Hubs
 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

Hubs
 inexpensive
 easy
to Install
 can connect different media
 very little delay

distance between devices
 limited on the number of repeaters
 no protocol or rate conversion

Bridges
 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:

Bridges
 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

Switches
 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

Switches
 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

more sophisticated than previously
 enable all ports to work at the same time
 can convert protocols

only data link layer protocols and
addresses

Routers
 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

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

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

Brouters
 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

Gateways
 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

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

Gateways
 Exists
in four major types:
 LAN-to-IBM
mainframe
 Network-to-network
 System-to-network
 System-to-system

LAN-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

System-to-System
 allows
connecting one vendor’s architecture to
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 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
