Appendix B

3DES

Triple DES, with a 168 bit encryption key, is the most accepted variant

 

of DES.

DH Group

Diffie-Hellman is a public key algorithm used between two systems to

 

determine and deliver secret keys used for encryption. Groups 1, 2

 

and 5 are supported. Also, see Diffie-Hellman listing.

DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network configuration proto-

 

col that lets a router or other device assign IP addresses and supply

 

other network configuration information to computers on your net-

 

work.

dial in

Port setting that specifies that other routers can initiate a connection

 

to the local router but that the local router cannot initiate a connection

 

to other routers. A port can be set as both dial in and dial out. Com-

 

pare dial out.

dial on demand

Communication circuit opened over standard telephone lines when a

 

network connection is needed.

dial out

Port setting that specifies that it can initiate a connection to other

 

routers but that other routers cannot initiate a connection to it. A port

 

can be set as both dial in and dial out. Compare dial in.

Diffie-

A group of key-agreement algorithms that let two computers compute

Hellman

a key independently without exchanging the actual key. It can gener-

 

ate an unbiased secret key over an insecure medium.

domain name

Name identifying an organization on the Internet. Domain names con-

 

sists of sets of characters separated by periods (dots). The last set of

 

characters identifies the type of organization (.GOV, .COM, .EDU) or

 

geographical location (.US, .SE).

domain name server

Network computer that matches host names to IP addresses in

 

response to Domain Name System (DNS) requests.

Domain Name System

Standard method of identifying computers by name rather than by

(DNS)

numeric IP address.

DSL

Digital Subscriber Line. Modems on either end of a single twisted pair

 

wire that delivers ISDN Basic Rate Access.

DTE

Data Terminal Equipment. Network node that passes information to a

 

DCE (modem) for transmission. A computer or router communicating

 

through a modem is an example of a DTE device.

DTR

Data Terminal Ready. Circuit activated to indicate to a modem (or

 

other DCE) that the computer (or other DTE) is ready to send and

 

receive data.

-----E-----

 

 

echo interval

Frequency with which the router sends out echo requests.

 

Enable

This toggle button is used to enable/disable the configured tunnel.

encapsulation

Technique used to enclose information formatted for one protocol,

 

such as AppleTalk, within a packet formatted for a different protocol,

 

such as TCP/IP.

Encrypt Protocol

Encryption protocol for the tunnel session.

 

Parameter values supported include NONE or ESP.

encryption

The application of a specific algorithm to a data set so that anyone

 

without the encryption key cannot understand the information.
