Active Hub is a hub that has electronic circuitry to regenerate weak signals. Active hubs function as multiport repeaters, allowing computers to be networked together in a star topology. Virtually all hubs sold today are active hubs.
This is the type of hub that monitors, amplifies, and regenerates signals. Signals are strengthened in active hubs.

Software-Defined Networking (SDN): The Future of Networking?
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a network architecture approach that decouples the control plane from the data plane, enabling centralized control of the entire network through software.
Port 80 and port 443 are both used for transmitting HTTP and HTTPS traffic, respectively, but they operate at different layers of the networking stack and use different protocols.
