Link Aggregation
Link Aggregation is the combination of multiple physical links into a single logical link for higher capacity or redundancy.
Protocol
Link State Routing
Link State Routing is a routing method in which routers exchange and flood link-state advertisements to build a shared network topology map, then independently compute optimal paths using shortest-path algorithms.
Protocol
Load Balancer
A Load Balancer is a system that distributes traffic or workloads across multiple resources. It improves availability, utilization, and service performance.
Software
Load Balancing
Load Balancing is the distribution of traffic or workload across multiple resources so no single resource becomes overloaded.

Mac Address
Mac Address is the link-layer address assigned to a network interface for local network identification and delivery. It is used primarily on Ethernet and similar networks to enable switching and…
Protocol
Mesh Topology
Mesh Topology is a network structure in which nodes are interconnected through multiple paths. It provides path diversity and resilience compared with simpler layouts.
Concept/Framework
Microservices Architecture
Microservices Architecture is a software design approach in which an application is built as a set of small, independently deployable services. Each service handles a focused function.
Software
Modulation
Modulation is the method of varying a carrier’s amplitude, frequency, phase, or related properties to represent information for transmission. It is the bridge between digital or analog information and physical…
Concept/Framework
Monolithic Architecture
Monolithic Architecture is a software design in which an application is built and deployed as a single integrated codebase or unit. Its components are tightly coupled for deployment.
Software
Multicast
Multicast is a communication method that delivers the same data to a selected group of receivers instead of to one receiver or everyone. It reduces duplicate transmission through network-based replication…
