Description: Transport networks are responsible for transmitting data between different nodes in a network. These networks enable efficient and effective communication between devices, ensuring that information is sent and received quickly and securely. They are characterized by their ability to handle large volumes of data traffic, using technologies such as packet switching, which optimizes the flow of information. Additionally, network function virtualization (NFV) has revolutionized how transport networks are managed and deployed, enabling the creation of more flexible and scalable networks. The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is essential in managing routes in large-scale networks, ensuring that data follows the most efficient path. With the advent of 5G networks, speed and latency have significantly improved, allowing for new applications and services. Wide Area Networks (WAN) connect multiple local networks, facilitating communication between different geographical locations. Network operating systems manage network resources and services, while cloud networks allow access to shared resources over the Internet. Wi-Fi connectivity has made access to transport networks more accessible, and Quality of Service (QoS) ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth to function properly.
