Full Duplex Capable of handling simultaneous data transmission between a sending station and a receiving station.

ICMP

Internet Control Message Protocol. Internet protocol

 

that reports errors and provides other information

 

relevant to IP packet processing, such as routing

 

information.

 

 

Inverse ARP

Inverse Address

Resolution Protocol.

Enables

 

routers to obtain the IP address of a known Ethernet

 

address of a device associated with a virtual circuit.

 

Method of building dynamic routes in a network.

IP

Internet Protocol.

Part of the TCP/IP protocol. IP

 

networks are connectionless, packet switching

 

networks.

 

 

IP address 32-bit address assigned to hosts using TCP/IP. An IP address contains four octets separated by periods, also known as a dotted quad address. Each address consists of a network number, an optional sub-network number, and a host number. The network and sub-network numbers together are used for routing, while the host number is used to address an individual host within the network or sub- network.

IP SNAP Sub-network Access Protocol. Internet protocol that operates between a network entity in the sub- network and a network entity in the end system. SNAP specifies a standard method of encapsulating IP datagrams and ARP messages on IEEE networks. The SNAP entity in the end system makes use of the services of the sub-network and performs three essential functions: data transfer, connection management, and QOS selection.

LAN Local Area Network. Privately owned network- connecting devices over a limited geographic area. May use TCP/IP or one of several other protocols.
