64 Basic Internet Questions And Answers
22⟩ What is PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)?
A PPP is a protocol that provides a method for sending and receiving packets over serial point-to-point links.
23⟩ What is Defense Data Network (DDN)?
The United States Department of Defense global communications network.
24⟩ What is URL rewriting?
Instead of storing a cookie value in the HTTP header of a request, the URL is rewritten to include a session parameter. URL rewriting might avoid cookies but it share the same set of potential problems just mentional above. Plus, with URL rewriting there are no static URLs in your Web-Enabled application, which often makes caching and indexing more difficult. Finally, every Web page needs to be dynamically generated so all hyperlinks include the session parameter.
25⟩ What is SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol)?
A standard protocol which is used to run TCP/IP over a serial line.
26⟩ What is Subnet mask (Address Mask)?
This is used to recognize the sections of an IP address that concur with the different parts. Also known as the "subnet mask".
27⟩ What is Token ring?
A token ring is a kind of LAN that consists of computers that are wired into a ring. Each computer is constantly in direct contact with the next node in the ring. A token, which is a type of control message, is sent from one node to another, allowing messages to be sent throughout the network. A Token Ring network cannot communicate within itself if one ring is broken.
28⟩ What is UUCP (UNIX to UNIX Copy)?
A protocol that passes e-mail and news through the Internet. Originally, UUCP allowed UNIX systems to send and receive files over phone lines.
29⟩ What is White Pages?
Databases containing postal addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses of users on the Internet.
30⟩ What is Web Browser?
A web browser is a program that you use to view web pages. The two most popular web browsers are Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator.
31⟩ What is Archie?
A method of automatically collecting, indexing, and retrieving files from the Internet.
32⟩ What is Bounce?
This term refers to when you send an e-mail to a non-existent recipient and the e-mail is "bounced" back to you.
33⟩ What is the Bandwidth?
Bandwidth is the rate at which data that can be transferred through a connection. A standard PC modem has a very low bandwidth of about 3,000 to 5,000 bytes per second. The very high speed lines that make up the backbone of the Internet are much faster, at least 1,000,000 bytes per second! Note that bandwidth is not exactly the same as speed. If you only want to transfer one byte, it may not get where it is going any faster with high-bandwidth than it would with low-bandwidth. However, if you want to transfer a million bytes, then high-bandwidth will definitely help! You can think of high-bandwidth as like drinking juice with a fat straw, whereas low bandwidth is like drinking juice with one of those thin coffee straws.
34⟩ What is Data Encryption Key (DEK)?
Used for encryption and decryption of message text.
35⟩ What is Cookies?
Provide a simple way to identify session among a group of HTTP/HTML requests. The cookie value is often an index into a table stored in the memory of a Web server that points to an inmemory object holding the user's records. This has many potential problems: If the user's request is routed to a different server in a subwequent request, the session information is unknown to the server. If the user is rounted to a different server and the server is part of an application cluster, then all the servers that could receive the user's request must have a way to synchronize the session data. Storing cookies and synchronizing sessions among clusters of server usually requires configuration, storage space, and memory.
36⟩ What is Alias?
A nickname that refers to a network resource.
37⟩ What is Data Encryption Standard (DES)?
Standardized encryption method used most on the Internet.
38⟩ What is Datagram?
A block of data that can travel from one Internet site to another without relying on an earlier exchange between the source and destination computers.
39⟩ What is DDN (Defense Data Network)?
The United States Department of Defense global communications network.
40⟩ What is Dedicated line?
A communications line used solely for computer connections, such as T1 and T3 lines. An additional phone line solely for your modem is a dedicated line as well.
