Cisco Systems 1105 manual Including passwords, Up to 32 characters long, GL-6

Glossary

S

seed

A CDP-enabled device used as a starting point for discovery. For example, by adding a seed device (or set of seed devices), the neighbors of the seed device are discovered using CDP.

SMTP

SNMP

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. Internet protocol providing e-mail services.

Simple Network Management Protocol. Network management protocol used almost exclusively in TCP/IP networks. SNMP provides a means to monitor and control network devices, and to manage configurations, statistics collection, performance, and security.

SSH	Secure Shell. Provides a secure Telnet connection, encrypting all traffic,
	including passwords
SSID	Service Set ID. It is a unique identifier that client devices use to associate with
	the access point. The SSID helps client devices distinguish between multiple
	wireless networks in the same vicinity. The SSID can be any alphanumeric entry
	up to 32 characters long.
SSL	Secure Socket Layer. Proves a secure connection between the WLSE and Web
	clients.
STP	Spanning-Tree Protocol. Bridge protocol that uses the spanning-tree algorithm,
	enabling a learning bridge to dynamically work around loops in a network
	topology by creating a spanning tree. Bridges exchange BPDU messages with
	other bridges to detect loops, and then remove the loops by shutting down
	selected bridge interfaces. Refers to both the IEEE 802.1 Spanning-Tree
	Protocol standard and the earlier Digital Equipment Corporation Spanning-Tree
	Protocol upon which it is based. The IEEE version supports bridge domains and
	allows the bridge to construct a loop-free topology across an extended LAN. The
	IEEE version generally is preferred over the Digital version.
