IP Address to Mbps
IP Address Internet Protocol address. The IP address is associated, by the network manager or network designer, to a specific interface. The availability of IP addresses is controlled by the IANA.
ISO | International Organization for Standardization. The ISO |
| has developed a standard model on which network |
| operation is based, called the OSI Model. |
Jitter | Degradation of network signals due to a loss of |
| synchronization of the electrical signals. Jitter is often a |
| result of passing a signal through too many repeaters. |
LAN | Local Area Network. |
LANVIEW | A system which relates diagnostic, troubleshooting, and |
| operational information pertaining to network devices |
| through the use of prominently displayed LEDs. |
LDRAM | Local Dynamic Random Access Memory |
Leaf Object | An end unit in a MIB tree. Leaf objects are accessed |
| through a series of branch groups. Leaf objects are |
| always individual MIBs. |
LED | Light Emitting Diode. A simple electronic light, used in |
| networking equipment to provide diagnostic indicators. |
| Also used as a light source for some fiber optic |
| communications equipment. |
Load | An indication of network utilization. |
MAC Address | Media Access Control address. The MAC address is |
| associated, usually at manufacture, with a specific |
| interface. |
Mbps | Megabits Per Second. Mbps indicates the number of |
| groups of 1000 bits of data that are being transmitted |
| through an operating network. Mbps can be roughly |
| assessed as a measure of the operational “speed” of the |
| network. |
