Appendix C: Glossary

10Base-T / 100Base-T

The adaptation of the Ethernet standard for Local Area Networks (LANs). 10Base-T uses a twisted pair cable with maximum lengths of 100 meters and transmits data at 10Mbps maximum. 100Base-T is similar, but uses two different twisted pair configurations and transmits at 100Mbps maximum.

Ad-hoc Network

Also known as the peer-to-peer network, an ad-hoc network allows all computers participating in a wireless network to communicate each other without an AccessPoint.

Adapter

A device that makes the connection to a network segment, such as Ethernet and modem cards.

ADSL

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL), as its name indicates, is an asymmetrical data transmission technology with higher traffic rate downstream and lower traffic rate upstream. ADSL technology satisfies the bandwidth requirements of applications which demand “asymmetric” traffic, such as web surfing, file downloads, and telecommuting.

ATM

Asynchronous Transfer Mode is a network technology supports real time voice, video, and data transmission. The topology uses switches that establish a logical circuit from end to end, which guarantees quality of service (QoS). ATM works by transmitting all traffic as fixed-length, 53-byte cells. This fixed unit allows very fast switches to be built ATM is widely used as a backbone technology in carrier networks and large enterprises. ATM is highly scalable and supports transmission speeds of 1.5, 25, 100, 155, 622, 2488 and 9953 Mbps. ATM is also running as slow as 9.6 Kbps between ships at sea.

Bandwidth

The amount of data that can be transmitted in a fixed amount of time.

Browser

A software application used to locate and display Web pages. Examples include Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer.

BSS

BSS is the acronym of Basic Service Set that is consisted a wireless access point and a group of wireless client computers.

Communications Protocols

Communication between devices requires they agree on the format in which the data is to be transmitted, sent and received. The communications protocols are a set of rules that define the data format.

DHCP

DHCP, short for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP Addresses to devices on a network. Dynamic Addressing means that a device can have a different IP Address each time it connects to the network.

Domain Name

A name that identifies one or more IP Addresses. For example, the domain name microsoft.com represents about a dozen IP Addresses. Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. For example, in the URL http://www.pcwebopedia.com/ index.html, the domain name is pcwebopedia.com.

DNS

Short for Domain Name Server, translates domain names into IP Addresses. To help us recognize and remember domain names they are alphabetic in form, however, the Internet actually runs on numbered IP Addresses. DNS servers translate domain names into their respective IP Addresses.
