Glossary

printer port. Windows terminology for a physical or logical connection to a printer. For example:

•LPT1 indicates the printer is attached to a physical parallel port with a parallel cable.

•USB001 indicates the printer is attached to a physical USB port with a USB cable.

•Lexmark_Z65_1008e8 indicates a logical connection to the printer across your network.

SSID. Service Set Identifier (SSID), one of your computer’s wireless adapter network settings, is also referred to as a Network Name because essentially, it is a name that identifies a wireless network.

The SSID is a 32-character unique identifier that acts as a password when a mobile device tries to connect to the BSS (Basic Service Set). The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. A device will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. Because an SSID can be sniffed in plain text from a packet it does not supply any security to the network.

subnet. A portion of a network that shares a common address component. On TCP/IP networks, subnets are defined as all devices whose IP addresses have the same prefix. For example, all devices with IP addresses that start with 192.168.0 would typically be part of the same subnet.

System tray. A collection of miniature icons that allow easy access to system functions such as your computer’s network configuration utility. The system tray (also referred to as systray) is located in the Windows taskbar (generally in the bottom right corner, next to the clock). Double-click or right- click on an icon to view and access the details and controls.

TCP/IP. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP) are protocols that let different types of computers communicate with each other. The internet is based on this suite of protocols.

WEP. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), one of your computer’s wireless adapter network settings, is a security protocol for wireless local area networks (WLANs) defined in the 802.11b standard.

WEP provides security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end point to another.
