Q73.Marks: +2.0UGC NET Paper 2: Computer Science 18th June 2024 Shift 1 (Cancelled)
Which of the followings are type of interface in an ATM network ?
A. user-to-user
B. user-to-network
C. network-to-network
D. host-to-network
E. user-to-host
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
1.A and B Only
2.B and C Only✓ Correct
3.C and D Only
4.D and E Only
Solution
The correct answer is Option 2) B and C Only.
Key Points
An ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) network typically has the following types of interfaces:
User-to-Network Interface (UNI): This interface connects end users to the ATM network. It is essential for the user to access the network services.
Network-to-Network Interface (NNI): This interface connects different ATM switches within the network. It is used for interconnecting different parts of the network to ensure smooth data transfer.
Additional Information
Option A: User-to-User - This is not a standard interface type in ATM networks. Communication between users generally goes through the network.
Option D: Host-to-Network - While similar to user-to-network, this term is not typically used in the context of ATM networks.
Option E: User-to-Host - This is not a specific interface type in ATM networks. It may refer to user communication with a host, but not a standard ATM interface.
