Side A ------ Side B
What is a Content Switch? ------ Avance networking device that works at least at layer 7(application Layer) and hides server behind a single IP address.
What is InterVLAN Routing? ------ A feature on some switches to create virtual routers.
What is Intrusion detection/intrusion prevention? ------ A process used to detect that something has intruded into a network and that protects networks from intrusions.
What is Load Balancing? ------ The process of taking several servers and making them look like a single server, distributing the processing and network traffic load across the physical servers.
What is a Multilayer Switch? ------ A swtich that has functions that operate at multiple layers of the OSI seven-layer model.
What is Point-to-point tunneling protocol (PPTP)? ------ A protocol that works with PPP to provide a secure data link between computers usiing encryption. 
What is Port Authentication? ------ A function of many advanced networking devices that authenticates a connecting device at the point of connection.
What is Prot Mirroring? ------ The capability of many advanced switches to mirror data from any or all physical ports on a switch to a single physical port. Useful for any type of situation where an administer needs to inspect packets coming from certain computers.
What is a Proxy Server? ------ A device that fetches internet resources for a client without exposing that client directly to the internet. Most proxy servers accept requests for HTTP,FTP,POP3 and SMPT resources. the proxy server often caches, or stores, a copy of the requested resource for later use.
What is a Quality of Service(QoS)? ------ Policies that control how much bandwidth a protocol, pc, user, VLAN, or IP address may use.
What is a Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS)? ------ A special remote access server program, originally only available on windows server, on which a PPTP endpoint is placed in Microsoft networks.
What is Traffic shaping? ------ Controlling the flow of packets into or out from the network according to the type of packet or other rules
What is a Trunk Port? ------ A port on a switch configured to carry all data, regardless of VLAN number, between all switches in a LAN.
What is Trunking? ------ The process of transfering VLAN data between two or more switches.
What is Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)? ------ A LAN that, using VLAN-capable switches, places some systems on a virtual broadcast domains.
What is Virtual Private Network (VPN)? ------ A network configuration that enables a remote user to access a private network via the internet. VPN's employ an encryption methodology called TUNNELING, which protects the data from interception.
What is a VPN concentrator? ------ A VPN-capable router that serves as endpoint of a VPN, rather then having the endpoint be a server program, residing on a server on the LAN.
