PAP/CHAP:

Password Authentication Protocol and Challenge Handshake

 

Authentication Protocol (PAP/CHAP). Most ISPs use either one for

 

user identification. If your ISP doesn’t support these two protocols,

 

contact them for an authentication script.

PCI:

Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) is a specification introduced

 

by Intel Corporation that defines a local bus system that allows up to 10

 

PCI-compliant expansion cards to be installed in the computer.

PPP:

Short for Point-to-Point Protocol, a communications protocol for

 

transmitting information over standard telephone lines between devices

 

from different manufacturers.

PPPoE:

Short for PPP over Ethernet, relying on two widely accepted standards,

 

Ethernet and the Point-to-Point Protocol. PPPoE is a communications

 

protocol for transmitting information over the Ethernet between devices

 

from different manufacturers.

Router:

An Internet device that routes requests for information to other routers

 

until the information’s location is found and the data can be transmitted

 

back to the origin of the request.

TCP/IP:

Short for Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol, the suite

 

of communications protocols that enable hosts on the Internet to connect

 

and exchange streams of data.

MRU:

Maximum Receive Unit indicates the peer of PPP connection the

 

maximum size of the PPP information field this device can be received.

 

The default value is 1492 and is used in the beginning of the PPP

 

negotiation. In the normal negotiation, the peer will accept this MRU

 

and will not send packet with information field larger than this value.

MTU:

Maximum Transmission Unit indicates the network stack of any packet

 

is larger than this value will be fragmented before the transmission.

 

During the PPP negotiation, the peer of the PPP connection will

 

indicates its MRU and will be accepted. The actual MTU of the PPP

 

connection will be set to the smaller one of MTU and the peer’s MRU.

 

The default is value 1492.

MSS:

Maximum Segment Size is the largest size of data that TCP will send in a

 

single IP packet. When a connection is established between a LAN client

 

and a host in the WAN side, the LAN client and the WAN host will

 

indicate their MSS during the TCP connection handshake. The default

 

value is 1432.

UBR:

Short for Unspecified bit rate.

WAN:

Wide Area Network. A System of LANs connected by telephone lines

 

and/or radio waves.
