Primaarvõrgu

Primaarvõrgu, often translated as primary network, refers to the main or foundational network infrastructure within a telecommunications or computing system. It is the core of the network, responsible for carrying the bulk of traffic and providing essential services. This network typically comprises high-capacity transmission lines, central switching points, and the primary routing mechanisms. Its design prioritizes reliability, speed, and capacity to handle significant data flows.

The function of a primaarvõrgu is to connect major hubs, data centers, and regional points of presence. It acts as the backbone, enabling communication between different parts of a larger network. For instance, in the context of the internet, it would be the transcontinental and intercontinental fiber optic cables and the major internet exchange points. In a corporate setting, it might be the network connecting different office buildings or data centers.

Key characteristics of a primaarvõrgu often include redundancy and robustness to ensure continuous operation. Fault tolerance is a critical design consideration, as any disruption to the primary network can have widespread consequences. The technology employed in a primaarvõrgu is usually cutting-edge to support the demanding performance requirements. This contrasts with secondary or access networks, which connect end-users to the primaarvõrgu.
