S

Server	It is a simple computer that provides resources, such as
	files or other information.
SIP	SIP (Session Initiated Protocol) is a standard protocol
	that delivers the real-time communication for Voice over
	IP (VoIP), which establishes sessions for features such
	as audio and video conferencing.
SMTP	The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used for Internet
	mail.
SNMP	Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP was
	designed to provide a common foundation for managing
	network devices.
Station	In LANs, a station consists of a device that can
	communicate data on the network. In FDDI, a station
	includes both physical nodes and addressable logical
	devices. Workstations, single-attach stations, dual-attach
	stations, and concentrators are FDDI stations.
Subnet mask	In TCP/IP, the bits used to create the subnet are called

T

(TCP/IP)	Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol is a

	the Internet.
Transceiver	A transceiver joins two network segments together.
	Transceivers can also be used to join a segment that
	uses one medium to a segment that uses a different
	medium. On a 10BASE-5 network, the transceiver
	connects the network adapter or other network device to
	the medium. Transceivers also can be used on 10BASE-
	2 or 10BASE-T networks to attach devices with AUI
	ports.
