WPS870G

 

 

Subnet Mask

A methodology that determines what the router will examine for the destination of an IP address. A router delivers packets using the network address.

Switch

On an Ethernet network, a switch filters frames based on the MAC address, in a manner similar to a bridge. A switch is more advanced because it can connect more than two segments.

T

TCP

Transmission Control Protocol on OSI Transport Layer 4 provides reliable transport over the network for data transmitted using IP (network layer three). It is an end-to-end protocol defining rules and procedures for data exchange between hosts on top of connectionless IP. TCP uses a timer to track outstanding packets, checks error in incoming packets, and retransmits packets if requested.

TCP/IP

The Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol suite provides standards and rules for data communication between networks on the Internet. It is the worldwide Internetworking standard and the basic communications protocol of the Internet.

Tunnel

To place packets inside other packets to send over a network. The protocol of the enclosing packet is understood by each endpoint, or tunnel interface, where the packet enters and exits the network. VPNs rely on tunneling to create a secure network.

Tunneling requires the following protocol types:

A carrier protocol, such as TCP, used by the network that the data travels over

An encapsulating protocol, such as IPSec, L2F, L2TP, or PPTP, that is wrapped around the original data

A passenger protocol, such as IP, for the original data

U

UDP

User Datagram Protocol. A method used along with the IP to send data in the form of message units (datagram) between network devices over a LAN or WAN.
