MIB	Management Information Base; a collection of information for remote servicing using the
	SNMP protocol
MPEG-2	Improved video/audio compression standard, compression on highest level allows images in
	studio quality; now established as broadcast standard
MPEG-4	A further development of MPEG-2 designed for transmitting audiovisual data at very low
	transfer rates (for example over the Internet)
MSS	Maximum Segment Size; maximum byte figure for the user data in a data packet

	N
Net mask	A mask that explains which part of an IP address is the network address and which part is the
	host address. It is usually written in dotted decimal notation, for example "255.255.255.192."
NTP	Network Time Protocol; a standard for synchronizing computer system clocks via packet-
	based communication networks. NTP uses the connectionless network protocol UDP. This
	was developed specifically for enabling time to be reliably transmitted over networks with
	variable packet runtime (Ping).

	O
OF	Optical Fiber; now used predominantly as the transmission medium for line-borne
	telecommunication processes (glass fiber cable)
	P
Parameters	Values used for configuration
	Q
QCIF	Quarter CIF, video format with 176 × 144/120 pixels
	R
RADIUS server	Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service: a client/server protocol for the authentication,
	authorization and accounting of users with dial-up connections on a computer network.
	RADIUS is the de-facto standard for central authentication of dial-up connections via Modem,
	ISDN, VPN, Wireless LAN (see 802.1x) and DSL.
RFC 868	A protocol for synchronizing computer clocks over the Internet
RS-232/-422/-485	Standards for serial data transmission
RTP	Real-Time Transport Protocol; a transmission protocol for real-time video and audio
RTSP	Real-Time Streaming Protocol; network protocol for controlling the continuous transmission
	of audiovisual data (streams) or software over IP-based networks
	S
SFP	Small Form-factor Pluggable; small, standardized module for network connections, designed
	as a plug connector for high-speed network connections
