Hub
• Physical Layer
• Box with lots of Ethernet connection sockets
• Repeats messages to all connected nodes
– Generates wasted traffic
– Nodes must filter messages intended
for them
• Cheapest way
to connect
devices
Bridge
• Data Link Layer
• Single incoming and outgoing ports
• Keeps MAC address tables for two LAN
segments
• Filters traffic using the MAC address
Switch
• Connects all nodes to each other like a hub
• Examines Ethernet messages for destination
MAC address
• Intelligently relays messages toward
destination
• More expensive than hubs
• Can be combined with hubs
Router
• Network Layer
• A router connects to two different networks
Ex: LAN to WAN (internet)
• Routers maintain a so-called routing table to
keep track of routes
– Without routers the internet could not function
– Uses the IP address to forward packets
Gateway
• Application Layer down to network layer
• Connect and translate data between networks
with different protocols or architecture
• For instance, allowing communication between
TCP/IP clients and IPX/SPX or AppleTalk
• A gateway links two systems that do not use the
same:

Mnemonics to Remember
Top Down:
A Perfectly Simple Technology Narrowed Down Physically
All People Seem To Need Data Processing
All Pros Search Top Notch Donut Places
Bottom Up:
Programmers Like Networks That Seldom Postpone Anything*
Programmers Dare Not Throw Salty Pretzels Away
Please Do Not Throw Sausage Pizza Away
Please Do Not Tell Sales People Anything
People Don’t Need To See Paula Abdul
People Desperately Need To See Pamela Anderson
Paula Did Networking 'Til She Passed Away
* Uses L for Link layer rather than D for Data Link
