NAT	Network Address Translator generally applied by a router, that makes
	many different IP addresses on an internal network appear to the
	Internet as a single address. For routing messages properly within
	your
	network, each device requires a unique IP address. But the
	addresses may not be valid outside your network.
	NAT solves the problem. When devices within your network request
	information from the Internet, the requests are forwarded to the
	Internet under the router's IP address. NAT distributes the responses
	to the proper IP addresses within your network.
Network	A network consists of a collection of two or more devices, people, or
	components that communicate with each other over physical or
	virtual media. The most common types of network are:
	LAN – (local area network): Computers are in close distance to one
	another. They are usually in the same office space, room, or
	building.
	WAN – (wide area network): The computers are in different
	geographic locations and are connected by telephone lines or radio
	waves.
NWay Protocol	A network protocol that can automatically negotiate the highest
	possible transmission speed between two devices.
	P
PING	Packet Internet Groper, a utility used to determine whether a specific
	IP address is accessible. It functions by sending a packet to the
	specified address and waits for a reply. It is primarily used to
	troubleshoot Internet connections.
PPPoE	Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification for
	connecting the users on an Ethernet to the Internet through a
	common broadband medium, such as DSL or cable modem. All the
	users over the
	Ethernet share a common connection.
Protocol	Communication on the network is governed by sets of rules called
	protocols. Protocols provide the guidelines devices use to
	communicate with each other, and thus they have different functions.
	Some protocols are responsible for formatting and presenting and
	presenting data that will be transferred from file server memory to the
	file server’s net work adapter.
	Others are responsible for filtering information between networks and
	forwarding data to its destination. Still other protocols dictate how
	data is transferred across the medium, and how servers respond to
	workstation
	requests and vice versa. Common network protocols responsible for
	the presentation and formatting of data for a network operating syst
	em are the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) protocol or the
	Internet Protocol (IP). Protocols that dictate the format of data for
	transferors the medium include token- passing and Carrier Sense
	Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD),implemented as
	token-ring, ARCNET, FDDI, or Ethernet. The Router Information
	Protocol (RIP),a part of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
	Protocol (TCP/IP) suite, forwards
	packets from one network to another using the same network
	protocol.
