计算计概念和缩写含义（Calculation concepts and abbreviations） 1. gateway (Gateway), also known as inter network connector, protocol converter. Gateway is the most complex network interconnection device for network interconnection on the transport layer. It is only used for interconnection of two high level protocols with different networks. Gateways can be used either for WAN interconnection or for LAN interconnection. A gateway is a computer system or device that acts as a transfer task. The gateway is an interpreter between two systems that use different communication protocols, data formats, or languages, and even architectures that are quite different. Unlike bridges, which simply convey information, the gateway repackage the received information to meet the needs of the target system. At the same time, gateways can also provide filtering and security features. Most gateways run on the top layer of the OSI 7 layer protocol -- the application layer. The 2. repeater (REPEATER) repeater is the connection device above the network physical layer. Applicable to the same two types of network interconnection, the main function is to transmit or forward data signals to expand the distance of network transmission. A repeater is a network device, a physical layer device for the regeneration and reduction of signals, and a OSI model 3. router (Router) is a device that connects each LAN and Wan in the Internet. It automatically selects and sets the route according to the condition of the channel, and sends the signal in the best order according to the condition of the channel. Routers are the hub of the Internet, traffic police. At present, routers have been widely used in all walks of life, and various grades of products have become the main force to realize the internal connections of various backbone networks, the interconnection of backbone networks and the interconnection and operation of backbone networks and the internet. The main difference between routing and switching is that
