NetComm NS380W manual Rarp, Smtp, Snmp

Protocol	Communication on the network is governed by sets of rules
	called protocols. Protocols provide the guidelines devices use to
	communicate with each other, and thus they have different functions.
	Some protocols are responsible for formatting and presenting and
	presenting data that will be transferred from file server memory
	to the file server’s net work adapter Others are responsible for
	filtering information between networks and forwarding data to its
	destination. Still other protocols dictate how data is transferred
	across the medium, and how servers respond to workstation requests
	and vice versa. Common network protocols responsible for the
	presentation and formatting of data for a network operating system
	are the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) protocol or the Internet
	Protocol (IP). Protocols that dictate the format of data for transferors
	the medium include token-passing and Carrier Sense Multiple
	Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD),implemented as
	token-ring, ARCNET, FDDI, or Ethernet. The Router Information
	Protocol (RIP),a part of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
	Protocol (TCP/IP) suite, forwards packets from one network to
	another using the same network protocol.

R

RARP	Reverse Address Resolution Protocol, a TCP/IP protocol that allows
	a physical address, such as an Ethernet address, to be translated into
	an IP address.
RJ-45	RJ-45 connector is used for Ethernet cable connections.
Router	A router is the network software or hardware entity charged
	with routing packets between networks.

S

Server	It is a simple computer that provides resources, such as files or other
	information.
SMTP	The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used for Internet mail.
SNMP	Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP was designed to
	provide a common foundation for managing network devices.
Station	In LANs, a station consists of a device that can communicate data
	on the network. In FDDI, a station includes both physical nodes and
	addressable logical devices. Workstations, single-attach stations,
	dual-attach stations, and concentrators are FDDI stations.
Subnet mask	In TCP/IP, the bits used to create the subnet are called the subnet
	mask.
