ISP

Internet Service Provider. An ISP is a business that provides connectivity to

 

the Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations.

LAN

Local Area Network. A network of end stations (such as PCs, printers,

 

servers) and network devices (hubs and switches) that cover a relatively

 

small geographic area (usually not larger than a floor or building). LANs

 

are characterized by high transmission speeds over short distances (up to

 

1000 metres).

MAC

Media Access Control. A protocol specified by the IEEE for determining

 

which devices have access to a network at any one time.

MAC Address

Media Access Control Address. Also called the hardware or physical

 

address. A layer 2 address associated with a particular network device.

 

Most devices that connect to a LAN have a MAC address assigned to

 

them as they are used to identify other devices in a network. MAC

 

addresses are 6 bytes long.

MTU

Maximum Transmission Unit is the size of the largest datagram that can

 

be sent over a network

NAT

Network Address Translation. NAT enables all the computers on your

 

network to share one IP address. The NAT capability of the Router allows

 

you to access the Internet from any computer on your home network

 

without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP.

Network

A Network is a collection of computers and other computer equipment

 

that are connected for the purpose of exchanging information or sharing

 

resources. Networks vary in size, some are within a single room, others

 

span continents.

Network Interface

A circuit board installed into a piece of computing equipment, for

Card (NIC)

example, a computer, that enables you to connect it to the network. A

 

NIC is also known as an adapter or adapter card.

Protocol

A set of rules for communication between devices on a network. The

 

rules dictate format, timing, sequencing and error control.
