Static	One of the available boot methods. Use static if your network
Method	uses fixed configuration. The IP address remains the same
	every time the device connects to the network.
Subnet	A portion of a network that shares a common address
	component. On TCP/IP networks, subnets are all devices with
	the same prefix. For example, all devices that start with
	192.192.192 are part of the same subnet. Dividing a network
	into subnets is useful for both security and performance
	reasons.
Subnet Mask	A mask is used to determine what subnet an IP address
	belongs to. Companies often have ranges of IP addresses that
	can be described by one or more masks. For example, a mask
	of 255.255.255.0 allows variation in the last position only,
	because the first three positions are fixed.
Telnet	A Terminal Emulation program for TCP/IP networks that runs
	on your computer and connects your computer to a server on
	the network. You enter commands through the Telnet program
	and they run as if you were entering them directly on the server
	console.
TCP/IP	A way that two devices can transmit data between each other.
	TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol) is
	generally the standard for transmitting data over a network.

TKIP (Temporal

Key Integrity

Protocol)

TLS (Transport

Layer Security)

Changes the encryption keys regularly and has time limits before new keys are created. Changing the key periodically provides additional security.

Acryptographic protocol that uses client-side and server-side certificates to authenticate users on the Web. It can dynamically create user-based and session-based keys.

TTLS (Tunneled

Transport Layer

Security)

Provides certificate-based, server-side, mutual authentication of the client and network through an encrypted channel (or tunnel). It can dynamically create user-based and session- based keys.

Transmit Rate See Speed.
