GLOSSARY 701

U-NII

Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure. Three unlicensed

 

frequency bands of 100 MHz each in the 5 GHz band, designated by

 

the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide

 

high-speed wireless networking. The three frequency bands —

 

5.15 GHz through 5.25 GHz (for indoor use only), 5.25 GHz through

 

5.35 GHz, and 5.725 GHz through 5.825 GHz — were allocated in

 

1997.

Unlicensed National

Information

 

Infrastructure

 

user

A person who uses a client. In a 3Com Mobility System, users are

 

indexed by username and associated with authorization attributes such

 

as user group membership.

user glob

A 3Com convention for matching fully qualified structured usernames

 

or sets of usernames during authentication by means of known

 

characters plus two special “wildcard” characters. Double asterisks (**)

 

represent all usernames. A single asterisk (*) can appear either before

 

or after the delimiter in a user glob and can represent any number of

 

characters up to the next delimiter. A delimiter can be an at (@) sign or

 

a dot (.). See also MAC address glob; VLAN glob.

user group

A collection of users with the same authorization attributes.

vendor-specific

See VSA.

attribute

 

virtual LAN

See VLAN.

VLAN

Virtual LAN. A set of ports that share a single Layer 2 network. Because

 

the ports that constitute a VLAN can be on a single network device or

 

multiple devices, VLANs enable you to partition a physical network into

 

logical networks that meet the needs of your organization. You can

 

divide a single device into multiple logical Layer 2 switches, with each

 

VLAN operating as a separate switch, or make multiple devices

 

members of multiple logical Layer 2 networks. By default, all Wireless

 

Switch (WX) ports are members of VLAN 1, which is named default.
