Appendix G. Glossary

TDM

Time Division Multiplexing. A method for sending two or more signals over a common transmission path by assignment the path sequentially to each signal, each assignment being for a discrete time interval.

Telco

Telephone company.

Telnet

A terminal emulation protocol, part of the TCP/IP suite of protocols, that provides remote terminal- connection services. (See also VT-100.)

TFTP

Trivial File Transfer Protocol. A simplified version of the TCP/IP file transfer protocol that does not include password protection or user-directory capability.

TSU

T1 Service Unit.

UDP

User Datagram Protocol. Connectionless protocol defined by RFC 768 for transmission of data without acknowledgment or error control.

UNI

User to Network Interface. Defines the interface between the CPE and the frame relay providers switch.

VCOM Module

One of the ATLAS 550 option modules. The Voice Compression (VCOM) Module can provide 8, 16, 24, or 30 compressed voice channels to implement voice over frame relay in the ATLAS 550.

Voice Compression

A means of reducing the bandwidth required for transmission of voice traffic with minimal impact on the quality of the voice.

VT-100

A non-intelligent terminal or terminal emulation mode used for asynchronous communications. Used to configure the ATLAS 550.

WAN

Wide Area Network. A network that connects users across large distances.

XMODEM

An error-correcting file transfer, data transmission protocol used to transmit files between PCs. The XMODEM protocol sends information in128 byte blocks of data. Some sums (check sums) are done on
