Different types of Networking device and its function
Internal NIC - In internal networks cards, motherboard has a slot for the network card
where it can be inserted. It requires network cables to provide network access.
External NIC - In desktops and laptops that do not have an internal NIC, external NICs are
used. External network cards are of two types: Wireless and USB based
Hub
Hubs do not perform packet filtering or addressing functions; they just send
data packets to all connected devices.
Usually it operates at the Physical LAYER of OSI model.
Switch
A switch can work at either the Data Link layer or the Network layer of the
OSI model
A multi-layer switch is one that can operate at both layers, which means that it can
operate as both a switch and a router.
Router
Routers help transmit packets to their destinations by charting a path through the
sea of interconnected networking devices using different network topologies.
Routers are intelligent devices, and they store information about the networks they’re
connected to.
Bridges
Bridges are used to connect two or more hosts or network segments together.
The basic role of bridges in network architecture is storing and forwarding frames
between the different segments that the bridge connects.
Modem
Repeater
It’s an electronic device that amplifies the signal it receives. Repeaters work on the Physical
layer. In a data network, a repeater can relay messages between sub networks that use
different protocols or cable types.
