Glossary (continued)

IP Address (Internet Protocol Address): An IP address consists of four groups of digits separated by periods. Each group of digits contain an 8-bit value as a number ranging from 0 to 255. Each computer must have it’s own unique IP address. The IP addresses on your network must be within the same range. For example, if one PC or device has an IP address of 192.168.0.2, the other devices should have IP addresses that are sequential, like 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.4.

ISP (Internet Service Provider): A commercial organization that provides subscribers with access to the Internet.

Key: Encryption keys allow you to easily change wireless encryption settings to maintain a secure network. The DSM-320 supports 64-bit and 128-bit keys.

Netmask: Commonly referred to as subnet mask, this is used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to.

RJ-45: RJ-45 is the standard connector for Ethernet cabling. It looks like a phone cable connector, but is slightly larger. RJ-45 connectors have 8 pins, 4 of which are used for transmitting and receiving data.

SSID (Service Set Identifier): The name designated for a specific wireless local area network (WLAN). The SSID can be easily changed to connect to an existing wireless network.

Static IP: A static IP address is configured manually on the device that will be using it. A static IP address remains the same constantly and must be a unique address.

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy): A security protocol for wireless local area networks (WLAN) that is designed to provide the same level of security as a wired network. WEP provides security by encrypting the data sent over the WLAN. The DSM-320 supports 64-bit and 128-bit encryption.

Wired: Devices networked via Ethernet cabling.

Wireless: Devices networked using radio frequencies instead of physical cabling.
