Term
Cross Talk
Definition
Electromagnetic interfernce from one UTP to another twisted pair, running in parallel.

How to Fix : by sending a normal-strength signal down one pair of wiring a cable, with an electronic detector connected on the end of the cable or with a cable certifier
Term
Near End Crosstalk
Definition
________ on the same end the signal is coming from.

How to Fix: use a cable Certifier, properly crimp cables
Term
Attenucation
Definition
As a signal goes down the wire, the signal becomes stadily weaker.

How to Fix: Cable certifier or repeater
Term
Collisions
Definition
When two machines, both listening to the cable try to send a frame at the same time are normal.

How to Fix: CSMA/CD
Term
Short
Definition
Allows electricity to pass between two conductive elements that werent designed to interact together.

How to fix: replace the wire.
Term
Open Impedance Mismatch
Definition
When cables of different types connect and the flow or electrons isnt uniform. Also, ______ is the natural electrical resistance of a cable.

How to fix: Using Time Domain Reflectometer(TCR) or Optical Time Domain Reflectometer(OTDR)
Term
Interference
Definition
Anything that disrupts a message as it travels along a signal.
Term
Wrong DNS
Definition
Use Ping, MS lookup(all OS), Dig(Unix/Linex/MAC) commands. Right ______
Term
Incorrect IP Address
Definition
DHCP, Check IP setting, Ping, IPconfig- Right Ip address
Term
Wrong Gateway
Definition
Right Gateway
Term
Wrong Subnet Mask
Definition
Right Subnet Mask
Term
Broadcast Storms
Definition

Caused by one or more devices constantly sending ______ frames on the network.

first sign is when every computer in a _______ domain can't connect to the rest of the network.

 

to fix: Find and unplug the device(s) causing the problem.

Term
Switching Loops
Definition

Connection mulitple switches together to cause a loop to appear.

Some symptoms as broadcast storm.

 

To Fix: Finding the person responsible for causing the loops.

 

Term
Route Problem
Definition

Misconfigured router(s) sending packets to the wrong desnation.

Only way to fix: is to find the person in charge of the routing loop.

When interconnected routers hop traffic, causing routers to respond slowly or not at all.

Sometimes caused by dynamic routing protocols when a router goes down.

 

To fix:Notify person in charge of the router

 

Term
Routing loop
Definition
Occurs when interconnected routers loop traffic causing the routers to respond slowly or not respond at all
Term
Half Duplex(HDX)
Definition
Provides communication in both directions, but only one direction at a time(not Simultaneously). Typically, once a party begins reciving a signal, it must wait for the transmitter to stop transmitting, before replying.

Ex: Walkie-talkie
Term
Full Deplex(FDX)
Definition
Sometimes called double-duplex, allows communication in both directions. Allows this to happen simultaneously.

Ex: Telephone
