Port Security
Port security is essential in order to deny unauthorized remote access. Passive devices will report on unauthorized access, usage anomalies, etc. Active devices, which are preferable, will act to deny access to unauthorized users and to disable ports in the event that user-definable parameters are exceeded.
Transmission Security
Transmission Security is critical to ensure that unauthorized [...]

Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model
The OSI Reference Model is a layered architecture (Figure 7.10) consisting of a set of international networking standards known collectively as X.200. Developed by the International Standards Organization (ISO), the basic process began in 1977 and was completed in 1983. The OSI model defines a set of common rules that can [...]

High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC)
HDLC was developed by the International Standards Organization (ISO) as a superset of IBM’s SDLC and the United States National Bureau of Standard’s (NBS) ADCCP protocols. A version of HDLC is the Link Access Protocol-Balanced (LAP-B), which is used in ITU-TS X.25 packet switched networks. While HDLC was built on SDLC [...]

Asynchronous Data Link Control (DLC) Protocols
Asynchronous protocols are used primarily for low-speed data communications between PCs and very small computers. Framing occurs at the byte level, with each byte surrounded by a start bit (a 0 bit) and a stop bit (a 1 bit). A parity bit often accompanies each character, as well. Telex transmission [...]

Parity Checking
Parity checking is by far the most commonly used method for error detection and correction, as it is used in asynchronous devices such as PCs. Parity involves the transmitting terminal’s appending one or more parity bits to the data set in order to create odd parity or even parity. In other words, an odd [...]
