Network Protocol

Network protocols encapsulate and forward data packets from one interface to another.

PAP/CHAP

Short for Password Authentication Protocol and Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. Most ISPs use either one for user identification. If your ISP doesn’t support these two protocols, contact them for an authentication script.

PPP

Short for Point-to-Point Protocol, a communications protocol for transmitting information over standard telephone lines between devices from different manufacturers.

PPPoE

Short for PPP over Ethernet, relying on two widely accepted standards, Ethernet and the Point-to-Point Protocol. PPPoE is a communications protocol for transmitting information over the Ethernet between devices from different manufacturers.

PPTP

The acronym of Point to Point Tunnelling Protocol, PPTP encapsulates the packet for transmission over the Internet. It creates a private “tunnel” through the large public network to have similar security of private network without actually leasing a private line. PPTP is normally used for VPN connections.

Protocol

An agreed format for transmitting, sending and receiving data between two devices.

Roaming

The ability for a wireless device moves from one access point’s range to another without losing the connection.

Router

An Internet device that routes requests for information to other routers until the information’s location is found and the data can be transmitted back to the origin of the request.

TCP/IP

Short for Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol, the suite of communications protocols that enable hosts on the Internet to connect and exchange streams of data.

VPN

The acronym for Virtual Private Network. Via access control and encryption, VPN brings the security to the data transmission through the Internet as it is transmitted through a private network. It not only takes advantage of economies of scale but also secures a high level of security while the packet is sent over the large public network.

Wide Area Network (WAN)

A system of LANs being connected by telephone lines and radio waves. Although some WANs may be privately owned, they are usually considered a means of public access.

WEP

The acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It is an encryption mechanism used to protect your wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of 64-bit/128-bit keys to encrypt data that is transmitted between all points in a wireless network to ensure data security. It is described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.
