  1. You can get the details of FTP from the RFC at http://www.ietf.org.

  2. When you interconnect two PCs using an RS232 link, the data is transferred character by character. You need to write the software to implement SMTP and then send the data via the RS232 port.

  3. When the information in the directory is stored using a proprietary mechanism, it is not possible to share the directory information among devices. For instance, the address directory stored in a digital diary cannot be transferred to the Outlook Express address book because the directory formats are different. LDAP solves this problem by defining the directory structure, the operations to be performed on the directories, and so on.

  4. The standard protocols for file transfer are FTP, TFTP, and FTAM.

  5. The network management software has to collect the status of various network elements to ensure the reliable operation of the network. In addition, traffic data has to be collected. The traffic data can be used to identify the busy routes and plan for expansion.
