What is Hub ?

what is a Hub ?

  • Hub is a networking device which is used to connect multiple devices together in LAN(local area network).
  • Hub works under physical layer of OSI(open system interconnection) model.
  • It is purely hardware device where data reaches from one or, more nodes and is forwarded to one or, more nodes.
  • Traffic is high in hub because it is purely hardware .It has not software to determine the destination address.so,it does only forwarding but not filtering.Lets take an example for better understand:-            
  • If pc1 sends data to pc2,Data will goes to pc2 and also data goes to pc3 and pc4.which means hub can not do filtering .It can do only forwarding.                                                                                                                                                           
  • Collision is high in hub.
  • Hub communicates on the basis of half-duplex mode,Which means at a time a computer can either transmit or, receive but  can not do both simultaneously.
  • Hub has singe collision domain.  
  • Hub is also a multiport repeater.                                                                                                                                      
  • Hub is two types .These are active  hub and passive hub.
  • Active hub needs electricity and can regenerate signal.
  • Passive does not need electricity and can not regenerate signal.It simply receive and forward.

TCP/IP Model

TCP/IP stands for Transmission control protocol/Internet protocol.TCP is a transport layer protocol and IP is a network layer protocol .TCP and IP both are different protocol but by the help of these two protocol ,TCP/IP model was developed.TCP/IP model defines how data is transferred from one computer to another.When two devices communicates with each other through the help of internet ,it is possible only for TCP/IP model .The TCP/IP model consists of 4 layers.These are :- (1) Application layer:-  -This layer performs the function of the   top three layer of the OSI model,i.e.Application layer , presentation   layer and session layer . -The application layer is the top-most layer of the TCP/IP model. -The application layer provides the user with the interface to communication. -There are several protocols used by the application layer for interaction such as:FTP,HTTP, SMTP,DNS,TELNET etc. -The application layer sends data to transpo...

MAC Address

MAC stands for media access control. MAC address is also known as physical address or hardware address or BIA(burnt-in-address).BIA is generally written in Cisco router switches.physical address is generally written in laptop/pc.MAC address is generally written in Mobile. MAC address is globally unic.The MAC address of a device is different from other devices.Many people are thinking there is only one mac address of a device but it is actually wrong ,Because there is no mac address of a laptop .There is a Mac address of your NIC(network interface controller) ,which is connected to your laptop .                                (NIC) If you change your NIC,then the Mac address of your laptop will be changed.NIC is a separate hardware component present in your computer used to connect with the network (home network or internet).There are so many ways that you can connect your laptop with the network like...

Linear Regression in Power BI

Linear Regression is Predictive model used for finding the linear relationship between a dependent and one or more independent variables. In regression the dependent variable has to be continuous numerical (not categorical like Green, Yellow etc). In Simple linear regression, we have one independent variable and one dependent variable. It is also known as Univariate linear regression, as there is only one independent variable. In Multiple linear regressions, we have more than one independent variable and one dependent variable. It is also known as multivariate linear regression, as there is more than one independent variable. Now our goal is to predict the home price by using the Simple Linear Regression. (Name of the above table is SimpleLinearRegression ) In this table we have the prices of home based on the Area of that home. Here we have to predict the Price based on the given Area. As we are predicting the price based on the area. So, Price is the dependent variable and ...
