Network Router

RepublicNetworks asked:

This is part four of our network devices module. This part covers network routers and thier role in a data network. Routers are the most important part of any network because they connect multiple networks together. Routers vary from manufacturer but in general they all do the same thing.. connect different networks together so data can flow across networks. We highly advise you view these videos in order from the first module because the information builds through the module….

Network management may mean different things to different people. To some network management may be a solitary network consultant monitoring network activity with an outdated protocol analyzer, to others network management may be about distributed database, high-end workstations generating and traffic. Speaking generally, network management is a service, which uses a wide range of devices, tools, and applications, to enable the network managers to monitor and maintain networks successfully & efficiently.

Network management deals with the top-level administration and maintenance of widespread and large networks, commonly seen in the field of computers or telecommunications, which may be necessarily, include user terminal equipment.

Network management executes functions such as security, control, allocation, monitoring, coordination, deployment and planning to name a few. It is also worth noting that network management is governed by a several protocols which are basically present there for its support, including SNMP, Common Information Model, CMIP, WBEM, Transaction Language 1, Java Management Extensions, and Netconf.

Routing is also an important area of network management. Routing refers to the process of selecting the paths in a computer network on which to send data. In this arena of network management, logically addressed packets get transported from their source to their destination with the help of nodes. These nodes are called routers, in a process termed as forwarding.

Successful network management also uses accounting management. This controls and reports on the financial status of the network. This area of network management involves bank account maintenance, financial statement development, and analysis of cash flow and financial health.

Coming to Network Monitoring, it is about policing network traffic. In other words, network monitoring is spying for the benefit of smooth working of network management. Network monitoring is part of network management. Ideally network monitoring is a function that one of your systems must perform on an ongoing basis. While the other systems are performing the functions assigned to them, one should set aside at least one computer to monitor network activity. This is network monitoring in a nutshell.

The computer performing network monitoring must be kept always on. Which means that network monitoring system should have exclusive power lines or, backup generator facility. Everyone should understand that network-monitoring system is the most critical part of any network, because it is with the help of network monitoring that that the alarm will be sent if something is wrong.

Network monitoring will identify the slow or failing systems and notify the network administrator of such lapses. Issues like overloaded systems, crashing of servers, network connections being lost, virus infections, and power outages will be dealt without losing time if network monitoring is in place.

Derek Rogers asked:


When you are in a situation where you need to make sure that several computers are networked together and then to still be able to communicate with the outside world, you will find that of course you turn to a router for help. Routers have become such a commonplace part of office and home office life that they are scarcely worth a second thought, but in truth, you will find that learning about the routers on your network can make a huge difference when it comes to understanding how your own office works.

In the first place, you will find that a router is essentially all about data organization. A home network is a system that is very interconnected, and if all the pieces were simply connected to each other, you would soon find that your network would necessarily move at a snail’s pace. Each device on the network would evaluate every piece of information that passed through the network to determine whether or not that that information belonged to it, and this would slow things down a great deal. A router, placed between the disparate units, would go a long way towards directing the traffic flow and making sure that everything to where it was going with as few points between as possible.

A router will use a configuration table as its rubric for determining where the information will go. A configuration table will consist of things like the priority with which the message needs to be delivered, the rules for handling the traffic, and the information under which the information is sent through the addresses. In small and simple routers, you may find that a configuration table is as straightforward as a dozen lines, while in more complex ones, the configuration table can grow exponentially. When you are looking at the configuration table for your own router, you will find that it can be changed, but it does take some time and some work. Putting the right configuration tables on your router is something that is called flashing.

The router that you use will be the only device that will see every piece of data that goes through your network. One of the router’s most important jobs is going to be separating different networks and making sure that their traffic does not bog each other down, and you will also find that it does an important job when it comes to taking information in. Internet data is transferred in the form of packets of data. Thee packets of data are sent along a balanced road that is navigated on a millisecond by millisecond basis, and the routing occurs, to humans at least, practically instantaneously.

Take some time and think about your router and everything that it does for you. There are plenty of things that you need to do in order to make sure that you are going to be getting the right kind of options taken care of in your office, so don’t miss out on understanding your equipment.

router with network storage

Mr. Steven G. Liggett asked:


In the never ending struggle to PORT FORWARD my Camstreams out-put across my

Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Wireless DSL Modem / Router

I would like to share with you the modest success of my most recient effort.

Setting up the Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Wireless DSL Modem / Router

1. Reset the router to factory settings under tools.

2. Go to security and:

a: Make sure the firewall is OFF.

b: Set DMZ for all network computers to ON.

c: Go to applications and choose your computer from the drop-down network menu.

d: Set applications button menu to user and press NEW rule.

e: Give rule a name.

f: Set protocol drop-down menu to TCP;UDP.

g: Select a range of PORTS to open. For example if you wish to use port 5700 I suggest you START 5000 , END 5999 , MAP 5000. Then APPLY.

h: Press the BACK button.

i: Click on your new rule in the list box and ADD it to your computer.

j: Then press APPLY.

To beef up my Camstreams encoder I switched to the regular Windows Media Encoder Version 9 available free to Windows users from MicroSoft downloads.

I used the following suggested settings from Camstreams with a few alterations (listed).

Windows Media Encoder Version 9

Run the encoder, select ‘Broadcast a live event’, Click OK

Select the devices you want to use in the next screen, click Next — I don’t use audio devices.

Select ‘Pull from the encoder’, click Next

Enter port number 5700, click Next — I also run two others on different ports.

Keep the first two settings as ‘Multiple bit rates video’

Scroll down in the ‘Bit rate’ box to the one marked ‘148kbps, 15, 320×240′, uncheck any others and check this one, press Next

‘Archive a copy…’ leave unchecked, click Next

Select ‘No,…’, click Next

Give your stream some info if you want - if not just leave blank, click Next

Click Finish

Give the encoder a few seconds to sort itself out, then click ‘Properties’

Click the ‘Compression’ Tab, Click ‘Edit…’

Under ‘Target Bit Rates’, select your 148Kbps stream and click ‘Edit’

In ‘Audio Format’, pull down “10kbps, 16Khz, Mono CBR” — I don’t use an audio device.

Change ‘Frame rate’ to 20fps

Change ‘Video Bit rate’ to 48K (including the ‘K’), click OK — I use 20K.

Go to the File menu, and select ‘Save As’ - call the file a name (e.g. broadcast.wme) and save it to your Desktop. In the future you can launch the encoder with this settings file by double-clicking it, so you do not have to set it up every single time.

Click ‘Start Encoding’ to start your broadcast.

Good luck with your Camstreams broadcast from behind a Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Wireless DSL Modem / Router.
