Part 3: Designing, Implementing & Maintaining the Solution

Conceptual Design: When implementing the distributed database, kernel loaded software will be installed on every client machine on the network. Every time an individual client machine is powered on, the distributed database will be powered on and begin filtering incoming traffic into every client machine (Özsu & Valduriez, 2011). This is a very important part of the process as it gives the advantages over the traditional firewalls. Traditional firewalls are implemented on the boundary of an internal network and an external network such as the internet.

Final Assignment

Both Bridges and Switches work on the data link layer of the OSI Model. However, switches are more advanced. Discuss how a switch has an advantage over a bridge in a network then elaborate more on the technology implemented in switches to control broadcast domains A bridge is a two interfaces device that creates two collision domains. This is because it forwards the traffic received from one interface only to the interface where layer two devices is connected (Olenewa, 2014). Bridges serves the main function of reading the destination of MAC address to forward the traffic only to the interface where it ...

Packet switching refers to a digital networking communications method in which all the data transmitted is grouped into blocks called packets before it is sent. Packet switching applies to all transmitted regardless of its type, content or structure. The data is transmitted over a shared network and transverses through a network of switches, adapters, routers and other network nodes (OPTNET Technologies, 2010). Packets of data are transmitted individually to their destination using different routes. Once all the packets forming a message get to the destination they re-compile into the original message.
