Sekundääriverkoston

Sekundääriverkoston refers to a secondary network, often used in telecommunications and computer networking contexts. It typically represents a network that is less critical or has lower priority compared to a primary network. This distinction can arise for several reasons, such as redundancy, capacity management, or specific service offerings.

In telecommunications, a sekundääriverkoston might be a backup system that activates when the main network experiences an outage. This ensures continued service availability, although it may be at a reduced capacity or with a lower quality of service. It can also refer to a network segment dedicated to less demanding traffic, thereby freeing up the primary network for more critical applications.

In computer networking, a secondary network can be a separate subnet used for management purposes, isolated from the main user traffic. This enhances security by limiting access to sensitive network components. Alternatively, it could be a less performant network used for non-time-sensitive data transfer, such as backups or software updates, to avoid impacting the performance of the primary network. The term emphasizes a hierarchical or differentiated approach to network design and management.
