HP Integrity iLO 2 MP 5991-6005 manual Domain, 189

Domain	A grouping of hosts that is identified by a name. The hosts usually belong to the same Internet
	Protocol (IP) network address.
Domain Name	The unique name assigned to a system or group of systems on the Internet. The host names of
	all the systems in the group have the same domain name suffix. Domain names are interpreted
	from right to left.
E
Ethernet	An industry-standard type of local area network (LAN) that enables real-time communication
	between systems connected directly through cables. Ethernet uses a Carrier Sense Multiple
	Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) algorithm as its access method, which all nodes listen
	for, and any node can begin transmitting data. If multiple nodes attempt to transmit at the same
	time (a collision), the transmitting nodes wait for a random time before attempting to transmit
	again.
Event	A change in the state of a managed object. The event-handling subsystem can provide a
	notification, to which a software system must respond when it occurs, but which the software
	did not solicit or control.
Extended Schema	A platform-specific schema derived from the common model. An example is the Win32 schema.
F
Firmware	Software that is typically used to help with the initial booting stage of a system and with system
	management. Firmware is embedded in read-only memory (ROM) or programmable ROM
	(PROM).
FPGA	Field Programmable Gate Array. A semiconductor device containing programmable logic
	components and programmable interconnects.
FTP	File Transfer Protocol. A basic Internet protocol based on Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
	Protocol (TCP/IP) that enables the retrieving and storing of files between systems on the Internet
	without regard for the operating systems or architectures of the systems involved in the file
	transfer.
G
Gateway	A computer or program that interconnects two networks and passes data packets between the
	networks. A gateway has more than one network interface.
Gateway Address	Where the packet needs to be sent. This can be the local network card or a gateway (router) on
	the local subnet.
GUI	Graphical User Interface. An interface that uses graphics, along with a keyboard and mouse,
	to provide easy-to-use access to an application.
H
Host	A system, such as a backend server, with an assigned Internet Protocol (IP) address and host
	name. The host is accessed by other remote systems on the network.
Host Console	The interface between the iLO 2 MP and the server that controls basic functionality. Also known
	as console.
Host ID	Part of the 32-bit Internet Protocol (IP) address used to identify a host on a network. Host ID
	is also known as DNS Name or Host Name.
Host Name	The name of a particular machine within a domain. Host names always map to a specific Internet
	Protocol (IP) address.
HTTP	Hypertext Transfer Protocol. The Internet protocol that retrieves hypertext objects from remote
	hosts. HTTP messages consist of requests from client to server, and responses from server to
	client. HTTP is based on Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
