LAN

Local Area Network

LDAP

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol is a simplified version of the standard

 

X.500 distributed directory model standard. LDAP specifies how a client

 

accesses a directory server. LDAP has emerged as a favored protocol since it

 

also handles key management with key and certificate storage.

Lifetime, Key

Payload key lifetime defines the extent to which a single set of cryptographic

 

keys is used when applying VPN services to IP packets. Key lifetimes can be

 

defined by either the amount of data acted on by this single set of cryptographic

 

keys or the amount of time these keys are used before a key change. The more

 

often a key is changed, the “more secure” the system, although performance

 

may be affected by frequent key changes.

LZS

Lempel-Ziv-Stac, a compression algorithm.

M

Mask Pairs

A network address and network mask. Two 4-byte pairs. For example, 1.1.1.0

 

and 255.255.255.0.

MIB - Enterprise

The enterprise-specific Management Information Base in the Avaya Inc.

 

security gateways. The Enterprise MIB information allows the administrator to

 

obtain basic monitoring information such as the network table, packet counter,

 

and general information regarding the security gateway using third party

 

software.

MIB-II

The non-enterprise specific Management Information Base in the Avaya Inc.

(Non-Enterprise)

security gateways. The MIB-II allows the administrator to obtain basic

 

monitoring information such as device ethernet information, routing and ARP

 

tables, SNMP traps, packet statistics, and other general information regarding

 

the security gateway using third party software.

Migration

A utility by which an existing VPNmanager database is converted into an LDAP

 

database for compatibility with VPNmanager 3.0 or later.

My Certificates

See Certificates, My Certificates

N

NAT

Network Address Translation (NAT) is a mechanism that allows private

 

(non-routable) networks to connect to public (routable) networks.

Not My security

If you are creating an extranet, choose “Not My security gateway” as the

gateway

Group’s associated security gateway. Doing this enables the “IP Address of

 

Extranet security gateway” entry field. Enter the IP address of the your partner

 

company’s security gateway. This is required if any VPNs serviced by a

 

VSU-1100, VSU-1010 or VSU-10 are in tunnel mode.
