Intrusion detection system. An intrusion detection system ( IDS; also intrusion prevention system or IPS) is a device or software application that monitors a network or systems for malicious activity or policy violations. [1] Any intrusion activity or violation is typically either reported to an administrator or collected centrally using a ...
Private VLAN. Private VLAN, also known as port isolation, is a technique in computer networking where a VLAN contains switch ports that are restricted such that they can only communicate with a given uplink. The restricted ports are called private ports. Each private VLAN typically contains many private ports, and a single uplink.
A telecommunication circuit may be defined as follows: [citation needed] The complete path between two terminals over which one-way or two-way communications may be provided. An electronic path between two or more points, capable of providing a single or multiple communication channels. An electronic closed-loop path among two or more points ...

When the collected information which describes a user in detail travels through multiple hops in a network, due to a diverse integration of services, devices and network, the information stored on a device is vulnerable to privacy violation by compromising nodes existing in an IoT network.
Time-Sensitive Networking ( TSN) is a set of standards under development by the Time-Sensitive Networking task group of the IEEE 802.1 working group. [1] The TSN task group was formed in November 2012 by renaming the existing Audio Video Bridging Task Group [2] and continuing its work. The name changed as a result of the extension of the ...
Small Form-factor Pluggable. Small Form-factor Pluggable connected to a pair of fiber-optic cables. Small Form-factor Pluggable ( SFP) is a compact, hot-pluggable network interface module format used for both telecommunication and data communications applications. An SFP interface on networking hardware is a modular slot for a media-specific ...
Modular switch. A modular switch or chassis switch is a type of network switch which can be configured using field-replaceable units. These units, often referred to as blades, can add more ports, bandwidth, and capabilities to a switch. [1] These blades can be heterogenous, and this allows for a network based on multiple different protocols and ...
