APPENDIX G GLOSSARY

firewall mode - An R3000 set up in the firewall mode will filter all requests. If the request is appropriate, the original packet will pass unchanged. If the request is inappropriate, the original packet will be blocked from being routed through.

global administrator - An authorized administrator of the network who maintains all aspects of the R3000, except for managing master IP groups and their members, and their associated filtering profiles. The global administrator config- ures the R3000, sets up master IP groups, and performs routine maintenance on the server.

group administrator - An authorized administrator of the network who maintains a master IP group, setting up and managing members within that group. This administrator also adds and maintains customized library categories for the group.

group name - The name of a group set up for a domain on an NT server. For example: “production” or “sales”.

invisible mode - An R3000 set up in the invisible mode will filter all connections on the Ethernet between client PCs and the Internet, without stopping each IP packet on the same Ethernet segment. The unit will only intercept a session if an inappropriate request was submitted by a client.

LDAP - One of two authentication method protocols used by the R3000. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a directory service protocol based on entries (Distinguished Names).

LDAP host - The LDAP domain name and DNS suffix. For example: “yahoo.com” or “server.local”.

login (or logon) script - Consists of syntax that is used for re-authenticating a user if the network connection between the user’s machine and the server is lost.
