Appendix D: Glossary

¾802.11b - The 802.11b standard specifies a wireless networking at 11 Mbps using direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) technology and operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum at 2.4GHz, and WEP encryption for security. 802.11b networks are also referred to as Wi-Fi networks.

¾802.11g - specification for wireless networking at 54 Mbps using direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) technology, using OFDM modulation and operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum at 2.4GHz, and backward compatibility with IEEE 802.11b devices, and WEP encryption for security.

¾802.11n - 802.11n builds upon previous 802.11 standards by adding MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output). MIMO uses multiple transmitter and receiver antennas to allow for increased data throughput via spatial multiplexing and increased range by exploiting the spatial diversity, perhaps through coding schemes like Alamouti coding. The Enhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC) was formed to help accelerate the IEEE 802.11n development process and promote a technology specification for interoperability of next-generation wireless local area networking (WLAN) products.

¾Access Point (Range Extender) - A wireless LAN transceiver or "base station" that can connect a wired LAN to one or many wireless devices. Access points can also bridge to each other.

¾DNS (Domain Name System) – An Internet Service that translates the names of websites into IP addresses.

¾Domain Name - A descriptive name for an address or group of addresses on the Internet.

¾DoS (Denial of Service) - A hacker attack designed to prevent your computer or network from operating or communicating.

¾DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - A technology that allows data to be sent or received over existing traditional phone lines.

¾ISP (Internet Service Provider) - A company that provides access to the Internet.

¾MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) - The size in bytes of the largest packet that can be transmitted.

¾SSID - A Service Set Identification is a thirty-two character (maximum) alphanumeric key identifying a wireless local area network. For the wireless devices in a network to communicate with each other, all devices must be configured with the same SSID. This is typically the configuration parameter for a wireless PC card. It corresponds to the ESSID in the wireless Access Point and to the wireless network name.

¾WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) - A data privacy mechanism based on a 64-bit or 128-bit or 152-bit shared key algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.

¾Wi-Fi–A trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance and the brand name for products using the IEEE 802.11 family of standards.

¾WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) - A group of computers and associated devices communicate with each other wirelessly, which network serving users are limited in a local area.
